ORLANDO – New York Metropolitan District’s Orange County Crusaders will return home with a national title.

The club defeated district competition, Newburgh Zion Lions, 59-58 to capture the AAU Junior Boys Division II National Championship game on Aug. 1 at Disney’s Wide World of Sports® Complex.

Click HERE to read full story.

This is one of the most amazing stories to come along in the AAU Boys Basketball world in a very long time. Scott Harris is the dedicated and visionary leader of the Orange County Crusaders. Over the years, he has built his organization into an outstanding community based basketball program. He also has operated the Tom Dowd Memorial Tournament in honor of one his coaches who was killed in the attack on the World Trade Center. The tournament is held during the first week in June every year. This season, Scott decided to compete in the NY Metropolitan AAU District Championships with a select number of his teams. In this his first year of participating in the National Championships, his oldest team captured the highly prestigious 17U Division ll crown. This was done by playing against approximately 100 of the top teams at this level in the entire country.

We in the New York AAU are extremely proud of the players, coaches and leaders of the Orange County Crusaders. Great job!

We also want to congratulate the Newburgh Zion Lions who the Orange County Crusaders defeated in the championship game. Two teams from the same district playing for the AAU National Championship is virtually unheard of in such high level competition.

There will be no Executive Committee Meeting held in the month of August. We will meet again in September.

This is a time when everyone is cutting back in order to save money in order to meet their living expenses. That trend, however, does not apply to AAU Boys Basketball in New York. This year, New York Metropolitan has had a total of 82 teams compete in Division l (37), Division ll (36) and Super Showcase (9) events. Last year 49 teams went to Nationals!

The Gauchos have the most teams competing in the various events with 14 with the Westchester Hawks with 9 and Long Island Lightning with 7.

We will be posting an article in second week of August summarizing how New York did in the various National Championships. The tournaments will end on August 8th.

The 17U Division l Championship game will be played on Wednesday, May 28 at 8:15 PM. The NYC Gauchos will face Westchester Hawks. The game will be webcast on HSBNETWORK.TV.

The 16U Division will be played on May 30 @ 8:30 PM. The NYC Gauchos will take on the Defenders.

We can report the results and give a brief description of the excitement and great competition that took place on Memorial Day at the Island Garden but there is so much more. Here are just a few highlights

> We estimate that there were over 1,000 players, coaches, parents and just plain old basketball fans in attendance throughout the day;

> There were 9U players whose shorts went down below their ankles and kids of all ages playing their hearts out.

> Why was Nick Bollettieri, the famous tennis coach and founder of IMG Academy, at Island Garden for almost two hours?

> Tom Konchalski, the most respected evaluator of talent and recruiting service expert, spent his entire Memorial Day at Island Garden taking notes on players as young as 13. Tom knows everyone and we know of no one who does not have anything less than the highest admiration for Tom. He is more than a legend - he is Tom Konchalski. Looking back, Tom remarked that he met so many players that he had evaluated in the past who now have their own children playing. Tom sincerely enjoys his annual trip to Island Garden.

> Bob Oliva, Christ the King High School Coach, also remarked that every Memorial Day he goes to the parade and then heads to Island Garden. He would never think of doing anything else. Bob stayed to the end and seemed to enjoy every minute of the basketball.

> It is impossible to single out just one coach for their great work with AAU athletes. We read about the criticism that AAU coaches receive in the media, from the NBA Administrators and the NCAA. Those that make those negative remarks do not know the coaches who make up NY Metropolitan AAU. These are the people who are there just for the kids.

> The event was well covered by the dedicated people who write about high school and youth sports on various websites. Their work brings recognition to the many talented athletes, teams and programs that would otherwise go unnoticed. Thanks to Ted Thomas of Longislandbasketball.com and Robert White of NY Hoops for spending most of the day with us. These men have become experts on the topic of youth basketball and they certainly are not becoming millionaires for their long hours of work.

> How about those refs? We know that everyone is not always happy but considering the number of games, fouls, walking violations, advice from the coaches, etc., they did a great job. These refs are paid but that fee is not nearly enough to do such games as the 10U Division l game between New Heights and the Gauchos with hundreds of people living and dying on every call. Disagree with their calls or not, I watched hours of basketball and not once did I see a ref not hustling or giving their full physical and mental effort.

> So many people were there from all neighborhoods, professions and backgrounds. Talk about diversity! Nothing mattered but the game and the effort to win. Everyone was equal and had one thing in common and that was their love of the game of basketball.

> Finally, it is appropriate that this fun-filled day takes place on Memorial Day each year. We must never forget that this holiday honors those who made the ultimate sacrifice to insure our freedom and pursuit of happiness.

Thanks to everyone for making the day so special and being part of the AAU experience!

All coaches and club directors who intend to participate in the AAU this upcoming spring season are urged to attend a meeting regarding recently enacted changes in the registration and roster process.

We also will be covering eligibility, game rules and available tournaments. The meeting will last less than 90 minutes. In order to make this meeting as accessible as possible, we will be hosting five separate meetings at different locations throughout our district. You need to attend only one of the five meetings. The dates and times of the meetings are as follows:

Saturday, February 2nd at 11:00 AM at the Island Garden in West Hempstead;
Sunday, February 3rd at 10:00 AM at the Island Garden in West Hempstead;
Saturday, February 16th at 10:00 AM at Hooperstown in Mount Vernon;
Monday, February 25th at 7:30 PM at the Fast Break Basketball Center in Staten Island.

The final meeting will be held in early March at the Brewster Sports Center in Upper Westchester. We will announce the specific date and time within two weeks.

Joseph C. Smith, one of the pioneers of women’s basketball and former AAU Girls Basketball Chair and officer for the Metropolitan Association, died Tuesday at age 65. He was an enormously knowledgeable, and sometimes contentious, observer of the sport. He will be sorely missed by those who knew him – and what follows is a tribute by fellow Full Court Press correspondent Bob Corwin.
