The MISA Basketball Championships are always intriguing. For many students and teams, it’s their first taste at the school level sport and often confirms their passion for the game. It’s also, in most cases, the first time that the best athletes from each school come together and compete against each other, working out who else is around the MISA schools and how they sit against the best basketball players in their age group. It's where lifelong friendships are formed, bitter rivalries between Colleges and teams are started, and where future super stars of the game are born.
The boys basketball team played with relentless determination and spirit despite being the target as returning champions, pushing their rivals to the final whistle with some crafty defensive strategies and energetic offensive play. The boy’s final was greatly anticipated, with both teams in electrifying form coming into the final showdown. The final score was to 25: 21 with Thomas Hassall beating William Carey and bringing home the trophy once again.
Thank you to Mr Geering who coached the team, his efforts and dedication was incrediably valuable to secure the win.
Congratulations to the team on your great season:
