Congratulations to our women’s wheelchair basketball team, the BORP Bay Meteorites, on an incredible showing at their first-ever NWBA Nationals in Fort Wayne, Indiana this past weekend! Coming in as the 15th seed, this squad improved every game and pulled off two upset victories against higher ranked teams to advance out of pool play. The Meteorites lost to the eventual champions, the Arizona Storm, in the quarterfinals to end the tournament in 7th place- an impressive showing for their very first season!
Eight players competed at Nationals and the crew included a fun mix of veteran players eager to teach and rookie players eager to learn. We’re especially proud of our two high school juniors- Cece and Bailey – who more than held their own against their older competition.
We couldn’t be prouder of the Meteorites debut season and are already looking forward to next year!
