The EAB (Eagle Academy Basketball) middle school has one of the top ranked middle school basketball teams in the league. During the 2014-2015 season, we were in 6th place in the overall Junior Varsity standings and 2nd in our division and we made the playoffs.
The first team we played in the playoffs was MS 72, and we beat them by a lot. The second team we faced was MS 455, one of the best teams in the league. They were undefeated, but we beat them on their home court. The third team we faced was MS 166. We won, and after that game, the 8th grade team had a game. They lost, but they kept their heads up and they never gave up.
We went all the way to the championship, but came up short. We lost the championship game to MS 355, but we had a good season and a good team. The 7th grade had a better record than the 8th grade team but both teams had good seasons.
Our 2014-15 team had good chemistry. We had chemistry on the court, before the game and in school. If we lost, then after the game we sometimes started arguing with each other. But we are brothers . EAB doesn’t only mean Eagle Academy Basketball!! It also means Eagle Academy Brotherhood!! We love each other as brothers. We are going to go all the way and win the 8th grade championship this year.
