Team Excalibur takes 2nd top program trophy 
AIHA state inline hockey championships and won state titles to assure themselves the top program trophy for the year. Yuma, which had an outstanding year, wound up in 2nd place out of 11 inline programs. 
Save for Excalibur Pee Wee Bronze's only first place of the season at the Casey's qualifier, the team couldn't seem to find itself for most of the qualifier season in the 14uB1 division. Struggling to get an edge over their own program's rival, the Excalibur 93's, it seemed to be too much of a losing uphill battle...that was until the State Championships came along. Coaches Gilbert Hernandez and Steve Leska kept everything in perspective for the kids, while the team simply went undefeated AND beat the heavily favored Excalibur 93's in the state championship game. Jordan Cline scored early while goalie Matt Davis recorded a shutout, as his brother, Mike Davis, scored an insurance goal with less that a minute left to seal their 2-0 championship victory. 
Big scoring threats reveal potent youth 
divisions
In what will have to go down as one very impressive comeback in AIHA state championship history is the victory of the Arizona Heartbreakers in the state finals over the Rollerplex Panthers in the 18u dvision. The Panthers team, which boasted several AAA level players on their roster, pretty much had their way with the Heartbreakers and just about any team that came their way during the regular season. After getting mercied in their first meeting with the Panthers in round robin play, the Heartbreakers went on a 3 game tear by beating the Panthers in the 18u championship finale 6-2. Heartbreakers goalie, Eric Hernandez was outstanding after their first loss of the championships and went on to take outstanding goalie honors. But coach of the team, Javier Zuniga, awarded the entire team the OUSTANDING DEFENDER award for the tournament, pointing to the fact that the team and not any one individual was responsible for their impressive comeback.
