Atlanta Select "Coach of the Year - 2011"

Atlanta Select proudly announce the "Coach of the Year" for the 2011 season. Coach Owens Q. Walker, the head coach for the Mighty Tenth Grade Boys BLACK Team. Coach Walker  shares the honor with another coach who will be announced when presented. But let's take a look at Coach Walker's year with his team.
Coach Walker began the season by fielding a team during the NAYBA Christmas tournament in December 2010. His team competed against more experienced teams but his players gave a stellar performance indicating what was to come.

The Mighty Tenth Grade BLACK Team competed in our own "Select Few" tournament in March 2011 in which it was the first test to compete with brother Select teams. He demonstrated that his team was going to be a force by defeating several of his brother team, however his team placed second in the tournament, only loosing to the Mighty Tenth Grade RED Team coached by Coach Mason, the "Coach of the Year for 2010".
Then in April his team played in the AAU District/State tournament, competing with team from throughout the State of Georgia. He finished third, earning a bid to the AAU nationals, finishing higher than any other Tenth Grade Select team.
Before I continue, let me recognize Coach Walker's number one right hand man his assistant coach, Coach Gary McDaniel. Coach McDaniel is always by Coach Walker's side and provides the wisdom and support that helped propelled Coach Walker and his team to greatness.

Above Coach Walker accepted the "Excellence" award for Coach McDaniel at the Coaches meeting.

Now back to the achievements of Coach Walker and the Mighty Tenth Grade BLACK Team during the 2011 season.

Coach Walker played in several YBOA tournaments last season. And the key to success in a YBOA tournament is to make it to Sunday. His team made it to Sunday in every YBOA tournament he played. He made it to the final four in both the YBOA Duluth Shootout and Gwinnett Roundball Classic. He qualified for the YBOA nationals by finishing in the top eight teams of 22 teams in the YBOA State tournament. His overall ranking in YBOA for the 2011 season was number 9 out of the numerous tenth grade teams that played YBOA. Go Select.

2 Middle Georgia Wolves
3 Gainesville Wildcats
4 LAGRANGE WARRIORS
5 Atl Xpress Blue DL
6 GT STARS WS
7 Marietta Magic
8 Middle Ga. Flyers 
9Atlanta Select BLACK (OW)

Coach Walker readily supported group practices with his brother Atlanta Select teams and in several cases provided his players to the other teams to participate in Exposure tournaments. 


Coach Walker entered as many tournaments as possible in June, July and August. One weekend he played in three local tournaments simultaneously, winning two trophies.
He entered his teams in Exposure tournaments, specifically, the "Big Shots" tour.
But the highlight of the season was winning the National Championship in the NAYBA. One of only two Atlanta Select teams that earned a national championship trophy in 2011.

Congratulations.

So again, congratulations to Coach Walker and his Mighty Tenth Grade BLACK team for having a great season, carrying the banner of Atlanta Select extremely high, displaying SYNERGY and achieving success.

The Coach of the Year -2011, Coach Walker
Go Select!
