Braden also received All-Tournament Team honors for his performance in the three games. Braden and his teammates have been working extremely hard these past few weeks getting ready for this season and it paid off in a big way! Braden is a good shooter/scorer and he proved that all week for us. He scored a team high 17 points vs River Ridge and 12 points in a victory vs Scales Mound.
