The Secret Is Out

I saw Victoria Kemokai when she was only a 7th grader in a middle school tournament and although the competition wasn't extremely competitive, certain things this young lady could do at that age put her ahead of the curve. I told her dad if she played for me, she would know longer be a secret because she was ready for center stage. Fast forward to her junior year, she is still somewhat under the radar however after her performance during an almost injury free season, she will be one sought after this summer. Two of the sayings I use frequently tie into this young lady and "the game starts at the one" fits her to a tee. Not only can she take a game completely over, she makes players around her better

This is apparent as she has led her team into a position to win their first district title after knocking off Hightower 47-42 on Tuesday night in one of my "Showdown" games. The other saying I love, "it's not what you do, it's who you do it against" fits in perfectly as Bush avenges a 20 point loss to #canenation in the FBISD Tournament. Winning this game against the team with most dominant post in the Texas Class of 2012, Tyler Gilbert, speaks volumes. How far can they go? That remains to be seen as they, like many others in the past and present have shown, only have to be the best team that game!
