Smith's facebook is funny w/regards to this trip. You can tell a kid from BVI is somewhat weirded out by Alaska. Anyway, thanks for the updates, Papa.

From the very first play of Thursday's opening game, it was apparent the level of play at the tournament is going to be high. After the Cougars won the opening tip, Christian Life forward Leslee Smith converted an alley-oop dunk to rival any slams thrown down at the Great Alaska Shootout.
