I hate this part of the playoffs...but it's inevitable #2 seed "Rinse Cycle" was swept out of the playoffs last night by #5 seed "The Rich-Mindset" (The Defending Champs)..."The Rich-Mindset" moves on to play the winner of "South Jersey All-Stars" vs. "The Great8"..."SJ" currently has a 1-0 lead and will play game 2 tonight at 7pm. I want to thank the staff & players for "Rinse Cycle" on a very competitive & exciting season. "Rinse Cycle" has this seasons MVP "Uncle Drew"...who averaged 19pts, 5rebs & entertained the crowd night in-night out with his moves & ball handling ability. "Rinse Cycle" was sponsored by Michael Anderson & coached by Douglas Thompson...Congrats on a successful season & giving these kids an outlet to showcase their talents.
