WOLVES BRING HOME THE SILVER!!!
ACAMIS BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT
IN HONG KONG
2017年度 SSSA (Shanghai Schools Sports Association) 篮球锦标赛告一段落，但 “狼之队” 的旅程尚未结束。1月17日至19日，男子、女子篮球队再次出征 ACAMIS 中蒙国际学校协会篮球锦标赛，这是近两年来我校高中篮球队第二次参与ACAMIS 篮球赛。此次比赛由耀中国际学校香港校区主办，来自广东、台湾、香港、上海共计 8 所国际学校相互竞技。
As the 2017, SSSA (Shanghai Schools Sports Association) basketball season comes to an end; the Wanyuan Wolves entered the 2018 ACAMIS (Association of China and Mongolia International Schools) basketball tournament for the 2nd time in two years. This year, it was hosted by Yew Chung International School in Hong Kong and took place from January 17th to January 19th. This tournament was composed of eight international schools coming from Guangzhou, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Shanghai.
第一天，“狼之队” 以四胜一负告终。女篮战胜耀中国际学校香港校区和广州英东中学美式中学。Jolin Chen 和 Grace Zhang 两位球员说道，“我们尽全力得分，保持良好的团队势头！”
The first day of tournament play started out with a combined five games for the Wolves and ended with an impressing 4-1 record. The Lady Wolves displayed their presence by out scoring both their opponents, YCIS and NCPA. Starting players Jolin Chen and Grace Zhang, said, “It felt great to play hard and get ahead of the pack in order to secure a good lead in the tournament.”
赛事不断激烈，第二天的小组赛中，我们的球员变化作战策略，进攻、防守，争取每一个得分机会，最终女篮位列第二，成功进入决赛；男篮在与广州英东中学美式中学的比赛中失利，位列小组第五，与决赛失之交臂。男篮队员 Johney Wang 因得分数量之大，荣获最佳球员提名；Sanny Liu、Tony Liang 两位队员，以及 Kimi Zhou、Jack Huang 分别在防守和进攻方面也有着出众表现。
By the second day, both our boys and girls team advanced to the playoffs with the Lady Wolves seeded second and the Boys team seeded 5th in their respective groups. The first playoff game took off for the boy’s by the third day of play where they fought hard to advance to the final game before ending in a respectable 4th place with a loss from NCPA. Johney Wang received the all star player nomination award for the SUIS Wolves due to his great ability to make plays and score for his team. Other contributing team members were starters Sanny Liu and Tony Liang on the defensive end with Kimi Zhou and Jack Huang scoring on the offensive side.
最激动人心的要数女篮争夺冠军的那场比赛。两个球队之间得分紧追不舍，每一个投球都扣人心弦！最终女篮以弱小比分失利于台湾义大国际高级中学，获得第二名！我们为你们骄傲！Annie Lian 和 Grace Zhang 更是荣获明星球员称号！
The highlight of the tournament was full of high stakes and excitement with the Lady Wolves advancing to the ACAMIS championship game. The girls finished with an honorable 2nd place out of eight teams after a well hard fought game against IIS of Taiwan. Star players Annie Lian and Grace Zhang received all-star awards on behalf of SUIS WY.
