Stanley Davis scored 13 points and Noah Warren added 11 markers as Team Nelson defeated LVBS 54-45 to win the Mid Atlantic AAU 11U Championship. Sam Iorio led the scoring attack for Lehigh Valley.

Top Performers


Stanley Davis Guard (Team Nelson)- Davis got things going early for TN with a couple of long treys and some nifty scoring off drives. He plays the game with a high level of confidence and knows his way around the floor. I like his form and release on his shot.

Austin Liughlin Guard (Team Nelson)- Austin brought fire off the bench for TN. He applied serious pressure on the rock and forced numerous turnovers. On the offensive end he is capable of draining any shot on the perimeter. His energy carried over to his teammates.

Eric Montanez Guard (Team Nelson)- Speaking of defense this kid also came in off the pine and ignited the squad. He dared ball handlers to crossover in front of him and made them pay when they tried. His presence in the game turned the tide for TN.

Sam Iorio Forward (LVBS)- Sam hit the mid range shot and beat the defense down floor for transition buckets. He plays the game very smart and shows a lot of versatility on this level. You will be hearing a lot from him in the future.

Jordan Harrington Guard (LVBS)- Harrington had a spark early on by knocking down some outside shots and getting past defenders with swift ball handling. He loves using the hesitation dribble and up fake when attacking.

Josh Snead Guard (LVBS)- Snead was a long range sniper today. He launched a few treys that were close to NBA range. He didn’t care about the atmosphere or the defense before letting it fly.
