The Comets entered the 2007 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.   The Comets had the most teams (3 – 12s, 15s and 16s)  teams playing on Championship Sunday, with our 15s and 16s winning Middle Atlantic Championships.  Considering that the Mid Atlantic is one of the premier region in the country this fete is beyond impressive.  Both teams continued to compete for National Championships, finishing 17th and 4th 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 9 Comets from class of 2008  heading off to Division 1 programs next fall, the Comets alumni currently on college rosters now stands at over 30!  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.
