Highlights Video of Sequoia 7th Grade 2011 NJB Silicon Valley Championship!

In just their first year under the newly formed Sequoia NJB Chapter (sequoianjb.org), the Sequoia 7th Grade All-Net A Boys, led by head coach Dele Sobomehin, beat Foothill for their first Section Championship, qualifying them for the National Tournament in southern California’s Orange County.

This was a nail biter of a championship game that went into TRIPLE overtime. After two timed overtime periods, an NJB official informs both coaches that the 3rd OT will be “sudden death”, something that was later disputed as not in accordance with the official rules.
