MAC Hoops Teams Take Championships

In April, The Multnomah Athletic Club adult competitive basketball teams competed in the National Championships, which were held in San Francisco at the Olympic Club. The five teams that represented MAC were the As, AAs, Masters, Golden Masters, and Platinum. Two of those five teams came back as National Champions.

The Golden Masters team brought home the championship trophy.

The Platinum team pulled out a tough last-minute win over a strong Los Angeles Athletic Club team, which led the whole game. With intense defense in the last minute and clutch shooting, the Platinum team came away with a hard-fought win.

Club Hoops Trio Takes Home 3-on-3 Honors

On Saturday, May 14, MAC Basketball hosted the Spring Indoor 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament in the West Gym. While play was fierce and fun all-around, only one trio could emerge victorious, and it was the team made up of Bruce Duffet, Jeff Locke, and Mark Geringer. Congratulations to the tournament winners.

The 3-on-3 competition featured teams competing in round-robin-style play with single-elimination playoffs. Teams were picked by tournament organizers to ensure parity and equity. Members bonded over pizza, snacks, beer, and Gatorade, plus the glory of great play and the kind of camaraderie in which MAC specializes. Readers should keep their eyes peeled for the next 3-on-3 tournament, coming to a club court in the future.
