Stone Adds To Title Haul

Coach Stone adds to his title collection

Coach Stone adds to his title collection

Kenny Stone won his first national title as an age group coach today. I’m not sure how many NBL titles Stone  won as both player and coach but today in Wellington he guided the North Harbour Under 15 boys to a come from behind victory over Canterbury, 80-77. His son Cameron is a memeber of the Harbour team and he, like his team mates, had to dig deep for the win as they trailed by double figures at quarter time and 51-46 at half time.

The Under 15 girls final was won by Rotorua. They defeated Waikato but I am unable to bring you the score as it has not yet been posted on the BBNZ website.

At the Under 19 tournament held in Nelson, Tall Ferns trialist Penina Davidson was the star of the Womens Final. Davidson posted 33 points, 14 rebounds, 3 blocks as Waitakere West defeated North Harbour 62-45.

Hutt Valley defeated Waikato 68-52 in the Mens Final, Nico Buckrell top scoring for the winners with 18 points.

2013 Titles Tally:

Waitakere West (2) Under 19 Women and Under 17 Women

Hutt Valley (1) Under 19 Men

North Harbour (1) Under 15 Boys

Otago (1) Under 17 Men

Rotorua (1) Under 15 Girls
