It all comes down to this! The Triumph Region of the PGH Circuit has been to: Bradenton, Knoxville, Chicago, Nashville, Atlanta, Daytona Beach, and Council Bluffs. And now, the Triumph Region Finals will take place in Spartanburg, SC this Saturday/Sunday at the Upward Star Center. Here is a link to the schedule/bracket:
We have 9 teams participating in the 15U division this weekend as Full Circuit Teams. Our Power Rankings indicate that Richmond Heat has played the best in qualifying tournaments with a record of 10-2 and a Power Score of nearly ten points better than anyone. There will be three pools (A,B,C) that will play in pool play before they come together on Sunday for the Final Four and Championship. I want to take a look at some of the top 2025 teams and top players below that have a Power Score over 80:
Richmond Heat (KY) | Power Score – 94.99
Richmond Heat 2025 has went 10-2 between three PGH Circuit events: Knoxville Knockout (4-1), Music City Showdown (4-0), and River City Run (3-1). Their only two losses were to Indiana Elite by 8 and Dayton Vipers by 1. They have a lot of talent and seem like the team to beat this weekend! They’ll take on Alabama Twisters Elite, Lady Sonics (SC), and Florida Lady Aces in pool play.
Hoop-Phi comes in with a .500 record of 4-4 between our two Tennessee tournaments: Knoxville Knockout and Music City Showdown. Their worst loss came to the team above, Richmond Heat, so they will have some work to do this weekend. A tough Wood Elite team awaits them out of the gate.
Q4 Elite (FL) | Power Score – 82.82
Q4 Elite came to both of our Florida events this summer: Triumph Region Kick-Off and Southeast Slam. They have some nice pieces, and they will start off with FCA Eagles (SC) and One Step Away (GA).
One Step Away has lost to two teams in this weekend’s field. They narrowly lost to Alabama Twisters Elite and got beat by Richmond Heat. They’ll face Q4 Elite (FL) and FCA Eagles (SC) in pool play on Saturday.
Wood Elite (GA) | Power Score – 80.99
Wood Elite participated in our Peach Games event that was the biggest non-live event in the Triumph Region. The only team in this field they’ve played was AL Twisters who they beat. In their pool, they will have to deal with Hoop-Phi Lady Ballerz.
AL Twisters has been to 3 of our events: Knoxville Knockout, The Exclusive, and Peach Games. They’ve beat One Step Away in the field, and they’ve lost to Wood Elite in this field. Their pool play opponents will be Richmond Heat, Florida Lady Aces, and Lady Sonics (GA).
We have teams from a lot of different places –which state will bring home bragging rights? Kentucky, Tennesse, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, or South Carolina? Power Scores, Rankings, and what happened in the past…they don’t matter this weekend! Whoever shows up and wins will take this thing home. Let’s get it!
