Spring league basketball wrapped up and in the junior high–high school division, the Heat, coached by Joey Browning, won the gold medal.
Spring Basketball has become an institution in the valley and this year four teams at the grade 7-12 level competed as well as Grade 4-6 teams. Browning’s team went 7-3 in league play, and then cruised through the playoffs.
“They were one of the greatest groups I had to coach,” said coach Browning.
James Fournier, and Sam Lockhart also coached teams this season, but it was Browning’s team against a team coached by Kyle Masson in the final.
Spring League is a minor development program to improve basketball skills. Over the years, DVSS alumni have continued to support the program by coaching and helping out the next generations of hoopsters. This was Browning’s fourth year coaching Spring League and his first year to win the championship.
