2009 - Chung Lao
Full BSC Tournament Recap
- Congrats to the 2009 BSC Champion DCZ FINEST, Pics
will be up on Wed!
A.
The 7th annual BSC is in the books. A team not named Chicago or Philly
finally claimed the hardware, namely DCZ Finest. I think its important to
note that it took this team 7 attempts at the title to finally claim it.
Perseverance paid off.
"Big Game" aka Jason Thomas played well for them, earning the All-Star
nod. Justin Thomas also played well, winning the MVP award as well
as the 3-pt contest. Alvin Rathinam stepped up in 2009, and the
team got important contributions from Aba Udofa (who hit the game winner
over Texas), and Sam John.
Best Game of 2009:
I'd have to say the Brooklyn-Philly 2nd Round playoff game, in which Brooklyn
pulled off the shocker against the #1 seed, Philly.
**Lots of pictures are coming in. Keep it locked.
Shout outs: I
want to take this time to shout out the following people. Without their
help, this event could not have happened. Crystal George, Charles
Thomas, Calvin Thomas, Josiah Harris, Binu Varughese,
Vinod Varghese, Bensen Oomman, Stanley John, Sam John, Daniel Lopez & all
the team members that helped us man the scoring tables. Also shout out
to Greg Smith of Good Elephant Photography for taking pics! To anyone I missed, many thanks for your support.
2009 BSC Tournament MVP
& 2009 BSC Joe Rosado 3-Pt Champion: Justin
Thomas
2009 BSC Fan Challenge Winner:
Barry Burnett
2009 BSC All-Stars: Jason Thomas
(DC),
Prajin Joseph (Newark), Vincent Ventolora (Brooklyn), David Kurikesu (Texas),
George Jolly (Texas)
----------------------------------------------------------
Final
2009 BSC Power Rankings
DC:
After 7 attempts, 7 ATTEMPTS, DC finally has a championship for its
mantle. Led by "Big Game" Jason Thomas, and with clutch shooting from
eventual MVP Justin Thomas & Alvin Rathinam, victory was secure. Important
contributions from Aba Udofa, who hit the game winner over Texas in the regular
season, as well as Sam John's aid on Friday. Let there be no dispute, DC
is the new champion. Is this the start of a new dynasty?
All Star: Jason Thomas
BSC MVP: Justin Thomas
3-Point
Champion: Justin Thomas
1
Brooklyn :
Look at this team's record from 2007-2009. Steady, constant improvement.
Led by team captain Roy, this very athletic team shocked Philly in the 2nd round
to earn their first ever trip to the championship game. Brooklyn started
off slow, and then ran all the way to the championship game. A very
athletic team that looks to shock the world next year!
All Star: Vincent Ventolora
2
Philly: Never, ever, underestimate this team. Philly went 6-0 in the regular
season, captured the #1 seed, and seemed destined to reach yet another
championship game. Then came Brooklyn, and in a shocker, handed Philly
their only loss of 2009. It's interesting to note that Philly has never
gone more than 2 yrs without winning a title. I expect a rejuvenated
Philly squad in 2010!
3
Texas:
All you have to do is look at their 2008 record, and then look at their 2009
record, and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that this team improved
greatly. Led by team captain, Roy. The addition of David Kurikesu
helped them inside, and allowed for Benson Samuel & George Jolly to work the
perimeter. They played the elite teams close, and look to make it to their
first championship game in 2010!
All Star: George Jolly
All-Star: David Kurikesu
4
Strong Island:
Team captain, Sijin Samuel. Strong Island had a
comparable year to 2008, even though their record is
technically worse. They were in a lot of games,
playing DC very close. The return of some key
players next year should allow them to make a run at the
title.
5
Gburg:
Team captain Ify Nwoko. Gburg fell off in 2009,
there's no way to sugar coat it. Teams were more
prepared to play this team. Even so, Gburg was in
a lot of games especially against DC, where Ike almost
hit the game tie-ing score. Had Josh Asomugha been
able to play every game with them, I think their record
would have been better.
6
Newark :
I have to shout out this team. Team captain Jensen Thomas. Led by
All-Star Prajin Joseph on the court, and with important contributions from
players like Jacinth Panicker, Newark was competitive in multiple games this
year, giving teams like Philly and Gburg a run for their money. Much
respect to them, as most team captains agreed that this team greatly improved.
I really believe that with more practice time under their belts, Newark can be a
playoff team in 2010!
All Star: Prajin Joseph
7
2010 BSC - First
look: Chicago looks to return and attempt to dethrone DC. We
hope to have Toronto back in the mix, possibly Yonkers, and a BRAND NEW TEAM!

Congrats to The 2009 & now 2-time IPF-VBC Champs
All 4 One!!!
POWER RANKINGS/FULL
RECAP RIGHT
HERE...Pics on the Way...
A. Our IPF Sports Weekend recap begins with
the IPF-VBC champs, All 4 One. Shout out to team captain
Angela Lazarus for putting together a team that captured the
title a second year in a row. To be sure, this team
was tested, eeking out some close wins, but in they end,
they showed true championship poise.
B.
I'd like to thank
Becky Kurikeshu & Jenet Poopalan for their help with this
year's event. As always, we hope to make next year's event better than
this one!
I'd also like
the thank Charles Thomas, Stanley John, Vinod Varghese, Lindsey Varghese,
Bensen Oomman, Shannon Jacob,
as well as the members of the various teams in attendance that helped us with
score-keeping/line judging. If I missed anyone, many thanks.
Tourney MVP: Jose Morel
---------------------------------------------------------------------
2009 POWER RANKINGS
All 4 One:
Shout out to team captain Angela Lazarus. All 4 One cemented their status
as the VBC team to beat by capturing their 2nd straight title. Jose Morel
proved again that he's the key to victory, but they got key upgrades all along
the court. Well done.
1
Maryland Storm:
Shout out to team captains Dilshan Rajagopal.
This team wasn't the
surprise team of the year, as they were a good team in 2008, but they made it to
the final with only 5 usable players on court. The addition of Christina
Devairakkam really propelled this team to the next level.
2
NY Shadows :
Shout out to team captains Sijin Samuel for putting this team together. NY
went 4-1 in the regular season showcasing the strong play of Binu Thomas & Leena
& Lilly Easaw. They had a great run and will come back with renewed fire
in 2010!
3
MOCOYOGRO Panthers: Shout out to team captain Tim Carkhuff.
This was without question the surprise team of the tournament.
After a poor showing in 2008, they responded big time in 2009, holding their own
against the elite teams of this tournament. Very well done, and we look
forward to greater things in 2010.
4
iSpike :
Shout out to team captain Becky Kurikeshu. Well,
iSpike had a rough go of it in 2009, they were in some
games, but others were tough. Still, volleyball is
this team's call sign, and I expect much bigger things
from the BOOYAKKASHAA family next year.
5
North of 42:
Shout out to team captain Jenet Poopalan for bringing
this team down. They have to travel the farthest
of any team, so their to be commended for the effort.
I think with more practice time, this team will make the
playoffs next year.
6
Appreciate
everyone coming out to support us, especially the fans.
We look forward
to seeing all of you next year!
