Presidents Day Basketball Tournament Receives Kudos

February 16 - With coaches, player families (from in and outside the SJS community), and even referees using phrases like “amazing,” “enjoyable atmosphere,” and “well organized” in post-event comments, it seems that the annual hosting tradition for St. Joseph CYO with the Presidents Day Basketball Tournament is very secure. This year the stats also were updated on the school's Facebook Page thanks to a parent volunteer.

One special moment of the tournament is always when 8th grade students play their last game but it would be hard to top the atmosphere in the MPR on Sunday night. As fate (or the brackets) would have it, our two 8th grade boys’ teams played against each other in the last game of the day. In a gym filled with nearly all St. Joseph parents and siblings to cheer them on in what was an exciting game to watch, the boys played hard. In the end, the winning team bested the other by just one point.
