Boys' Varsity Basketball

This week we finally had some good weather, and we were able to knock out several games! We are gearing up for some seriously competitive games, and looking to get healthy before the state tournament starts!

Our guys this week have been doing one heck of a job in stepping in and giving us some big minutes and effort, notably Oğuzhan Ay (Ozi) ‘20. The captains, David Penney ‘19, Joel Kabimba ‘19, and Benjamin Li ‘20 have not missed a game and have been putting everything on the line for the Dragons! We are extremely proud of our guys as we head into a big game tomorrow down in Richmond, VA vs Steward School.
