Boston Warrior AAU Boy's Basketball: Welcome

2013 (9th Grade) State Champion
2013 (9th) Grade Massachusetts State Champions

 Boston Warrior AAU Boys Basketball Program is one of the strongest programs in New England

Over the past 7 years, the Boston Warriors have won the Division 1 Massachusetts State Tournament and/or the New England Champoinships in every age group from 3rd grade to 11th grade. Last year (2012) we finished the cycle by winning the 3rd grade Division 1 State Title. In addition, in 2012 we had 13 teams qualify for the AAU National Championships. But it is not all about going to the national Championships. We offer players of all talent level the possible opportunity to play competitive spring basketball. The size of each roster are kept manageable and try to keep the price to play affordable. Most of all, we have provided very good coaching including a lot of skill work with real practices. Our mission is to provide local athletes intent on improving their games with an opportunity to compete against the best in NE.

Gibson Named MA Gatorade Player of Year

The honors keep piling up for Boston Herald Dream Teamer Tyler Gibson of Rockland.

Gibson was selected as the 2012-13 Gatorade Massachusetts Boys Basketball Player of the Year. Gibson is the first Gatorade Massachusetts Boys Basketball Player of the Year to be chosen from Rockland High School.

The 6-foot-6, 200-pound senior center averaged 21.4 points, 15.3 rebounds, 4.8 blocks and 2.1 assists per game this past season in
leading the Bulldogs (19-4) to the Div. 3 South semifinals. The 2013 South Shore League MVP, Gibson had eight games this season with at least 20 points and 20 rebounds. He concluded his prep basketball career with 986 points.
   
Gibson has maintained a 3.32 GPA in the classroom. He has volunteered locally as a youth basketball coach and has also donated his time as an elementary school mentor.Gibson has signed a National Letter of Intent to play basketball on an athletic scholarship at the University of Massachusetts at Lowell beginning this fall.
He joins recent Gatorade Massachusetts Boys Basketball Players of the Year Rene Castro (2011-12, Worcester Academy), Pat Connaughton (2010-11, St. John's Preparatory School), Nate Lubick (2009-10 & 2008-09, St. Mark's School), Stevie Mejia (2007-08, Lawrence Academy), and Mike Baldarelli (2006 – 07, Holy Name Central Catholic) among the state’s list of former award winners.
