The Phoenix Basketball U-12 team, consisting of lower Fairfield County All Stars, swept past three New York teams to win the Tip Off Classic AAU Tournament in Brewster, N.Y.
The team averaged more than 70 points a game in its wins this week. Wilton's Jack Williams was a key contributor to the Phoenix squad, stuffing the stat sheet in every category.
This weekend, the team heads to Fordham University to play in the Minutemen Tournament. This tourney features 14 of the top AAU U-12 teams from the New York City area. The winner of this tournament qualifies for the National tournament, which will be held at Disney World in Orlando, Fla.
The Phoenix will be defending its title as last year's U-11 Minutemen champions and national qualifiers.
