The
Comets entered the 2006 season with 13 teams(9 “A” teams,4 B teams), hoping the
summer would be filled with good times, great basketball, and national exposure. The Comets far exceeded expectations finishing
the season qualifying 8 “A” teams to Division 1 Nationals and all 4 B teams to
Division 2 Nationals. Our 14s and 15s
continue to compete for National Championships, finishing 9th and 17th
this year. College coaches came out in
huge numbers to watch our older teams, proving once again that the Comets have
a national recruiting reputation. With the 11 Comets from 2005 heading off to
Division 1 programs this fall, the Comets alumni currently on college rosters
now stands at over 25 ! This is a
tribute to the many coaches who continue to volunteer their time to develop our
players and the players for working to improve their game throughout the year. We thank our parents for the time they spend
helping to raise money, making sure the girls are at practices and tournaments,
and showing great sportsmanship on the sidelines. And to our players – we are very proud of the
effort you put forth again each year, showing great teamwork and a never ending
competitive spirit. With hard work and
determination the Comets will continue to excel at a local and national level.
Once
again a huge thank you to all the coaches for their time and effort put forth
for the Comets. We would not be able to
continue to thrive at the highest level without their time and dedication.
