BYC Elite Crowned Champions With 40-8 Title Win

They went 3-0 across the event, averaging 31 points for and just 8 against per game. That balance, plenty of scoring and stingy defense, became the team's signature. Allowing only 8 points a night tells the whole story of how this group played on the defensive end.

The scoring came from a true committee rather than one engine. Brandon Garcia and Denver Hess each finished with 19 points across the three games, sitting at the top of the column together. Close behind, Truitt Branch added 18 points and Mackson Burns chipped in 16. With four players carrying the load that closely, defenses never had a single name to key on.

The honors reflected that shared effort. Ivan Vega Zavala was named Tournament MVP. Garcia, Burns, Hess, and Branch all earned All-Tournament recognition, a fitting reward for the supporting work they put in across all three games.

The rest of the roster rounded out the picture. Nolan Patterson scored 10 points over the run, a steady contributor every time out. Cash Thomas added 4 points in two games, and Karter Thomas matched that with 4 points across three games. Jacquiese Holcombe contributed 2 points over the three games. Acen Sapien appeared in all three games and was part of the championship effort throughout.

This was a team title in every sense. Nine players took the floor, several names shared the scoring, and the defense held opponents to single digits on average. A 3-0 record and a championship to show for it. Congratulations to every player on BYC Elite on a tournament worth remembering."}
