The varsity and eighth grade boys basketball team have been hard at work preparing for every game.  They have had their fair share of injuries in the process, but it has all been paying off.  Right now the white eighth grade boy’s have a record of 7-0.  Then, maroon eighth grade boys have a close record of 6-3.  Both teams practice for about two hours each day and all have great passion and dedication for basketball.
