The A and B 8th grade boys’ basketball teams won against Herget last night. Ben Peterson and Jackson Snyder combined for 35 points in the A game. Finn Tomko led the way in the B game with 15 points and Ben Levin had a double double with 10 points and 10 assists...thanks to his magical headband. 

 

The 7th grade basketball A team fell to Aurora Herget in last night's game.  The team couldn't overcome a cold shooting 4th quarter.  The B team had no such problem dispatching the Herget team with a 30-point win.  Colton Bush put on his best Jason Williams imitation in leading the B team to victory.
