The 2012 Final Team Rankings 11U

The 11U division has been the most odd of them all. Very rarely did the top teams in the division  play each other. Not sure why but it is very disappointing from a competition stand point.   Hopefully 2013 will be better and teams will show up and clearly stake their claim as the #1 team.

1. Team Booya: Booya got the better of Lamorinda late and that is the reason the have landed in the top slot. Winners of three of their last four tournaments. Deep run in All-Stars.
2. Lamorinda Spartans: This Spartan team lacked an identity most of the season but seemed to find their fight and heart at the Elite 32. After losing their first bracket game they reeled off three straight victories. The Spartans Beat the Three time Elite 32 champion Stingrays early in the season.
3. Central Valley Cobras: The Cobras showed up to every big event and never ran from the top teams. They compiled and impressive 54-21 combined record including 10 championship victories.
4. Peninsula Nationals: Fell on tough times late in the season once Quintana went down with a broken arm.  With him in the lineup they are a formidable foe.
5. NorCal Black Sox: Good run late helped this team land a top five spot. Winners of two of their last three tournaments.
6. Central Valley Grizzlies: Tough team that found success at all levels this season. When they are at full strength they are really good.
7. Davis Aggies: Super talented squad only wish we got to see more of them. Team looks really strong heading into the 12U season.
8. Tracy Longhorns: Placed 1st or 2nd in four of their last five tournaments. Great overall record but below .500 vs in class opponents.
9. Red Barons: Tough team from the talent rich 707.
10. NorCal Titans: Competed well with top teams in SoCal and beat some of the top teams in NorCal.
