On August 2, 2013, at 7 p.m., the legendary Monsignor Kett Playground aka Dyckman, was the place to be for the women's basketball tournament, She Got Game 2. Sports fans, neighborhood residents, and celebrated men and women streetball basketball players came out to support the Ladies of Dyckman, organized by Sharon Bond; hosted by Steph Lova of Power 105.1 and Gossip Game; with MC, Chocolate, keeping it all the way live.

With much anticipation, the ladies came on the court and played hard for 40 minutes. The two teams played hard, scoring laying ups, jump shots, and falling but not stopping. They ran up and down the court with speed and got the crowd hyped in the bleachers. A fast-paced game, and the enthusiastic commentator, Chocolate, kept everyone engaged! At halftime, the crowd was entertained by the Hoop Girlz Dancers who kept the liveliness going until the second half began.

The game was close but a lead opened up as the burgundy team had scored many consecutive shots and succeeded in stealing the ball while the white team continued to struggle. Although the white team tried several times to come back, the burgundy team managed to keep their lead. At the end of the second period, the burgundy team won with a score of 49-39.

While women's sports do not get as much recognition as men's, it was a beautiful sight to see all of the supporters of these young women. Sharon Bond, Marketing and P.R. Manager of Dyckman, made it all possible. This park is home to men's street ball tournaments and when Ms. Bond took her position as manager, she added to the list a women's tournament, giving opportunities for young women to show that they, too, have game.
