Season Records for Binghamton Travel

The Binghamton Travel Basketball season came to a close Saturday (March 3) with three teams playing in tournaments in Cortland and Homer. Those three teams went a combined 8-2 that day, with two teams playing in the tourney championships.

Our 4th-graders cruised to victory in Homer, while our 5/6s lost in their championship 27-26 to Jamesville-DeWitte. The 6th-graders lost just one game, that one to last year's national champion AAU squad from Ithaca.

Of all the game that were reported and recorded throughout our season - which began in late October, with game starting in November - here is how our teams finished up.

Binghamton White (6)
22-4

Notable: White went 3-3 against Seton Catholic teams, with Seton being the only area team to beat White all season. White beat two different Ithaca teams this season, but the team's only other loss came in the Cortland tournament to a combined AAU team from the Ithaca area, a team that was anational champion at the 5th-grade level a year ago.

Binghamton Blue/Black (5/6)
25-8
Notable:
The Blue and Black teams scrimmaged each other three different times this season - those games are not included in the overall record. Also, one of the Blue/Black team's losses was to our White squad in an inter-program contest this winter.

Binghamton Red (4)
15-1
Notable:
The lone loss that was recorded this season for the Red team was by one point, to a Seton Catholic 5th-grade team. Binghamton Red just won the Homer-4 tournament Saturday, with an average margin of victory against other 4th-graders of 58 points.

Combined Record of Binghamton Travel Teams, 2011-2012

(.827 winning percentage)
