South Valley Slam Champion

From his expression in almost every picture, you'd think Eliah's just biding his time til he can blow this joint (probably very true). He really does have a very pleasant smile that seems to disappear the moment a camera surfaces. (Hmm. Remind you of anyone else?) Anyway, his city league basketball team went undefeated this season, and the coaches celebrated by taking the boys to Pirate Island. Here he's modeling his pirate swag along with his championship T-shirt. The games were thrilling, I tell you. The last one, especially, was a real nail-biter.
