Congratulations, Team Belize!  The U15 National Basketball Team won the bronze at the COCABA Championship in Costa Rica.

 

"Fighting back this evening from a 9 point half-time deficit, the Belize Boys U15 National Team dug in, regained their composure and executed down the stretch to defeat the hosts, El Salvador, 82-72, and secure 3rd place in the tournament.

Top performers were Nikai Jex Martinez with a wicked quadruple double performance of 22 points, 10 rebounds, 11 assists and 12 steals, sharp-shooting Izid Lopez with 26 points including six three-pointers, Charles Zabaneh with 8 points, Franklin Andrews and Marquest Arnold with 7 points each, and Leroy Betson with 8 rebounds.

Well done, boys, we are really proud of your efforts throughout this tournament!!! "
