Ladies, Gentlemen and Members of the Board;
 
Allow me first to thank the players, their families and supporters, the coaching staff and the game officials for their respective participation in an exciting demonstration of skill, sportsmanship, and grandstand participation in the Junior Varsity "A" division Championship Game played earlier this evening (17-Mar).
 
Secondly, in the eyes of this observer, everyone walked away a winner. However, it was Newport Harbor who topped the scoreboard in this spirited contest for the division trophy. Congratulations are in order and to salute both finalist teams!

This game was played well, refereed well and without incident. Here's the box score:
