It is with mixed emotions that I announce my resignation as President of the AFBL. I am moving to the west coast. Almost 10 years ago I recognized a missing element from our city and community. In the Summer, at Ben Woodward’s parents house basketball games would break out and everyone would have a great [...]
I’ve been slowly working through the season 9 video. It’s painfiul, but educational.
Week 8 (February, 6th, 2010) was after the 3rd day missed due to snow. People were itching to play. This day featured some of the worst and best play that the ABFL has to offer. The player of the day: Ethan Conner-Ross. Ethan [...]
On the whole the level of play from Season 9 was better than in years past. This game more than makes up for anything the looks remotely like competitive basketball and really shows the heights that the glorious AFBL is capable of. Two teams filled with “talent” play a game to 16. This seems simple [...]

Game 6 created a new dream team–the tandem of Nicky Santore and John Freeborn continued with support from Tim Gleeson, Andrew Jones and Ethan Conner-Ross. The opposition: Marcus, Jules Cornelius, Justin Stuhltrager, John Folmar and [...]
Game 2 pitted the winners Freeborn, Santore, Stuhltrager & Folmar against Marcus, AJ Ready Wright, (new father) Jules Corneilius & Dave Papp. Game 2 was dominated by Nicky Santore. He scored 10 on 71% shooting, while grabbing 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 1 block. The opposition shot only 20% from the floor.
Game 3, [...]
Game 1 from the final day of play is in the books.
The squad of Folmar, Freeborn, Santore & Stuhltrager (we should start a law firm) beat out the team of Hummel, Andrew Jones, Ethan Conner-Ross and Tim Gleeson. The game was typical AFBL fare–lots of back and forth, turnovers (4 for each team) and poor [...]
Seaon 9 has ended. There were many missed weeks due to snow, school cutbacks and the latest… electrical problems at the school. Through it all the games went on and we had solid numbers all year. The final stats will come soon, and then the much anticipated AFBL awards ceremony. Til then, thanks to everyone [...]
Better late than never, and thanks to our newly tapped stat man – Jon Folmar.
Week 5 (January, 23rd, 2010) was a busy AFBL showing with about 17 people showing to play. This put us back in 5 on 5 mode after most of Season 9 playing 4 on 4. The stats reflect the crowded paint [...]
Week 3 was an anomaly in AFBL play. Three players logged tripple doubles–this is unheard of. How did that many assits get tallied? No one will ever know, and I doubt it will ever happen again. The MVP of week three is rookie, Dave Pap! His first career tripple dip, in just his third game. Even LeBron [...]
Week 1 is in the books and I must say it was a great start with 13+ people coming out on a horribly cold & wet day. 8 games were logged (10 played, I believe) and the stats speak for themselves. Let’s get the to the details, full stats here @ google docs.
In reverse order [...]
