I've known Gilber Gomez for a year now, and he's a pretty cool guy! Some might call him a ladies man, a basketball phenom or as I call him plain old Gilbert. Gilbert has become one of my top friends to play basketball with, we just like to tease eachother and try to get in echothers mind. He's just a really fun guy to play basketball with!
Both of us are really competetive, we both love the game as do other basketball players! Some do it for fun and others just because it might be a fun sport to play; But we do it for the love of the game.

Cameron Volk
Cameron Volk is also a friend of mine. We might not be real close friends but we sort of hang in there. Well Cameron and I met during the Tucson High summer basketball team try-outs (ofcourse we both made it along with other comrades)! But before that we sort of met in this one 3 on 3 basketball tournament, him and his team beat us for the championship. Then, who knew that we'd be playing together in the same team? Well as destiny had it there we were (in the same team).
But, theres more to him just being a basketball star, but he is also a football star. For football he plays the QB (Quarter Back) position, and for basketball he plays the PG (Point Guard) position. His dad is not only a dad but he sort of reminds me of like Camerons personnal coach! Anyways he's cool, but me and Cameron have gotten along pretty well over this past year (thank god for that)! To wrap it all up I'm just going to say that he is an awesome basketball player.
James Molina
James Molina was one of my besdt friends last year at Roskruge Midlle School. This year since he's still attending Roskruge and I'm attending Tucson High, I dont really have too much time to talk to him or play ball with him anymore. Last year and this year he got the MVP trophy for the basketball team. I really don't know what the team would've done without him!
He plays for the club team Tucson Titans and played for Desert Storm in the past. He quit Desert Storm because the coach yelled alot and made everyone run the plas in practice like robots. His dad was a former basketball star in his early years just like both his sons James Molina and his Brother "juju". Juju is attending Davis elementary for now, but when he goes to Middle School he'll be attending Roskruge.

Mitchell Mendivil
This here is my brother, hes got talent but doesn't like to use it. He could easily play basketball but he says that he doesnt like playing it, and only likes watching it. But here and there he goes with me to the park and practice on his handles here and there. Him being a 6th grader is pretty good, he can shoot, he stands at 5 feet 6 inches, and hes pretty strong at the post.
He surtainly has talent, but he says that he would play if a coach asks him to play for them. The only team he would like to play for is Tucson Spartans because he says everyone is awesome there. Well It's pretty much true and well I called the soach for them and still no answer from them. I'ts all good though, he still practices sometimes but he is way too cocky for his own good. I say he's going to get beat up for talking so much smack to everyone!

Tucson Oro

Well this surtain team is a pretty young one but dont count them out when playing them! This particular team only has an 8th and 9th grade team, and some of the 8th graders sometimes play with us freshmen during tournaments. Practices for some are easy or for others they're real intense (I think they aren't intense at all). Gilbert R. Luna Jr. is the main coach for the team.
Well he might not be the greatest coach of all but he hangs there and tries to balance things out with all the players relationships. He has helped me out a lot by paying for my tournaments and all becasue he knows that I can't afford to pay for every tournament we go to. So all I have to say to him is keep up the good work, make the practices more intense and thank you for helping not only me and other teammates out.
