{team:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds|Iron City Hoops Edmonds} are champions. They closed out the tournament with a 75-62 win and finished the event a perfect 3-0.
The run was built on balance. Across three games, this team averaged 62 points for and 46 against, the kind of steady margin that comes from many hands rather than one. No single player carried the load, and that depth showed up in every box score.
Just about everyone contributed to the total. {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-jude-harper|Jude Harper} led the team with 32 points across the three games, with {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-christian-richardson|Christian Richardson} close behind at 31. {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-kam-laws|Kam Laws} added 30 and {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-kamari-kelley|Kamari Kelley} chipped in 26. The scoring kept coming from down the roster, a sign of how many players were ready to step up when called on.
That shared effort defines who they are. This was a committee, with four players in double figures and several more adding to the cause. The offense produced more than 60 a game while the defense held opponents near 46, and both ends of the floor told the same story of a group that played together.
The honors reflected the work. {player:10-boys-shannon-hawks-mac-howard|Mac Howard} was named Tournament MVP. Four members of the championship roster earned All-Tournament recognition: {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-kam-laws|Kam Laws}, {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-jude-harper|Jude Harper}, {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-kamari-kelley|Kamari Kelley}, and {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-christian-richardson|Christian Richardson}. Those nods landed after a full team showed what it could do.
The rest of the roster filled out the effort. {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-nigel-laws|Nigel Laws} scored 20 points across the three games, and {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-cash-mobley|Cash Mobley} added 17. {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-jaden-gaines|Jaden Gaines} put up 15 and {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-javon-mccrayer|Javon McCrayer} contributed 14. {player:10-boys-iron-city-hoops-edmonds-myles-mcafee|Myles McAfee} scored 2 points over 2 games. Every name belongs on this championship.
