A-Money All Starz Win League Championship

In a close match, All Starz defeat New Jersey Warriors.

The A-Money All Starz Sixth Grade White team won their league championship Thursday night in a hard fought battle against the New Jersey Warriors at Hoop Heaven in Whippany.

A-Money watched a 7 point lead slip away during the last two minutes as the Warriors tied the game at 33-all with just under one minute to play. But with just 3.8 seconds left on the clock, Spencer Weiner sunk a basket to put his team up by two and the Warriors could not convert on the final play.

The A-Money team, coached by Maplewood Middle School teacher Marc Gold, walked away with the championship by a score of 35-33.
