assasians.JPGAtlanta Classic       Champions!

Team Assasins

The 10th Annual Atlanta Classic had an unexpected champion. The young Assasins out of South Carolina and North Carolina area, were basically not in the radar of asian basketball. But they clearly put themselves there now! They were a very athletic and quick team led by Issac Hill (16 points, 6 rebounds in championship game) and Scoti Naidas (12 points, 18 rebounds). They were young but, played poised against a very experienced Hit Squad who seems to always come up a little short.

This is the first time a Carolina team has won a tournament in Atlanta. Is this a beginning of a new era of Carolina basketball? Its been a long time since there was a team from this area that could compete for championships. Their hasn't been a superstar player to from the Carolinas since Johnny (aka Laos Jordan) was on the scene in the 90's. Maybe the 6'3 22 year old, Scoit Naidas will be the new Carolina legend. He is long and has some spring on those young legs! We will see if the young Assasins can prove that they are here to stay with more championships to come!
