OUR MISSION

SUNS 4 LIFE TAKE 2 STATE TITLES
April 2009
The Suns 4 Life 13U and 15U teams had high hopes as they traveled to Baltimore's St. Frances Academy in search of their first Maryland State AAU basketball titles. Neither would disappoint, as both teams walked away with the championship trophies. The 13's dominated pool play and were very confident going into the final game. The game started as a back and forth defensive battle, but the Suns pulled away late to secure a 7 point win.

The 15U contest was just the opposite. The Suns scored off the opening tip, then reeled off 10 straight points and never looked back. Aggressive defense and balanced scoring were the keys to victory in both games. A shout out also goes out to the 14U team for finishing in third place.
 

SUNS 4 LIFE 14U SWEEP VA CARDINALS TOURNEY
May 2009
The Ingram/Perry 14U team looked as if they had something to prove at the VA Cardinals One Day Bump N Run on May 28. The boys looked poised and confident in winning all three games. The team showed it could win in a variety of ways; a close, hotly contested affair, a come from behind victory, and a blowout win. Congratulations, and keep the roll going.

A shout out also goes to the Ingram/Perry 15U team for a strong showing, going 2-1 on that day. Unfortunately, the 13U team struggled as a result missing players and ended the day with a record of 1-2.
 

SUNS 4 LIFE SHINE BRIGHT AT MARYLAND STATE TOURNAMENT
April 2009
Congratulations to the Ingram/Perry 13U and 15U teams for advancing to the finals of the Division III MD District State AAU Basketball Tournament. The Suns 4 Life 13U boys basketball team looked very impressive, using aggressive defense and balanced scoring to win by an average of 36 points. Both the 13U and 15U teams posted 3-0 records as they advance to their championship games. The strong showing by the 13's and 15's automatically earns them the right to move up to Division II next year. The championship games will be held May 9th at St. Frances Academy in Baltimore, MD.

A shout out also goes to the Ingram/Perry 14U team for placing third in their age group. Unfortunately, they were not able to fully regroup after losing a player to a broken arm during game one and then losing another player to a severely sprained ankle during game two. All 3 teams will participate in the awards ceremony on May 9th.
 

SUNS 4 LIFE RISE ATOP THE MOUNT
April 2009
The Suns 4 Life basketball teams had a very strong showing at the Mount St. Mary's Easter Round Robin. The four teams that competed posted a 10-2 record. Congratulations to the Ingram/Perry 15U and 14U teams for going undefeated, both posting 3-0 records. The Ingram/Perry 13U and Hagins/Anderson 14U teams also looked impressive, each finishing with records of 2-1. The final game for the 13U team went down to the wire. The 13's got off to a slow start, but stormed back in the second half. Unfortunately, their run came up two points short. We would like to thank all the parents for coming out and supporting your children and this organization.

Shout Outs for 2008 Season!
Congratulations to our 13U team coached by Robert Ingram and Derrick Perry for taking 2nd place in the Mavericks Ironhorse tournament in Brunswick, MD! They had 4 wins and 1 loss. Unfortunately, the loss was in the championship game against Hagerstown B-ballers. It proved to be an exciting game that went down to the wire and was reminiscent of the Celtics and Lakers!
