SCIBCA Blue Divsion--East Bracket
Results From Friday--(June 10, 2000)

We didn't get many results from the first day of the SCIBCA Summer 2000 Tip-Off Tournament, but that doesn't mean there wasn't a lot of basketball going on all over SoCal.  With 92 teams in action, and everyone playing in the first round yesterday (with only a few notable exceptions where there were first round bye's due to graduation ceremonies, final exams and other senioritis), we can't possibly hope to keep track of it all.  Fortunately, some of our friends kept track of a few games, very late last night we received an e-mail from one of our friends out in the desert (aka Palm Sprngs/Cathedral City), who let us know what happened out in the Blue Division-East Bracket:

Here are Friday's results from the Blue Division-East bracket, hosted by Cathedral City. First, thanks go to Palm Springs, and coach Randy Small, for the use of their gym, made necessary by a Senior party taking place at   Cathedral City...
