Rampage 41-36 and Baltimore’s Mt. Royal 33-29, a win that put the Mavs in the national championship game.

The team played the Washington, DC Takeover for the title, losing 45-30.  The Mavericks 11U record for the year is 33-7. The team finished second in the national ranking.

The team is coached and owned by Mike Gonzalez and Willie “BB” Patrick Jr. The assistant coaches are Antonio Wardlow and Nathen Belcher.  The Mavericks are sponsored by Top Priority Care Services, LLC and several other local businesses and churches.
