Under 13 boys play St Columbas on Monday

Next Monday (6th February) the Under 13 boys play their first District League game away against St Columbas. The team sheet is on the notice board at the gym

Under 15 girls narrowly lose to Queens but Under 16 Boys win again

The Under 15 girls lost narrowly, 36 - 32 to Queens in the County League this evening. The girls started slowly, losing the first quarter by 4 which would ultimately be our margin of defeat. The team then played well in the last three quarters, winning 2 of them with Holly Seglah top scoring with 15 points and Holly Brando Hollahan from year 8 hitting 13 points. A more controlled start and more accurate foul shooting could have led to a victory but the whole squad should still be very pleased with the overall performance. Two more wins will still see us in the semi final.

The Under 16 boys made it 6 out of 6 with a comfortable 70 - 42 point win over St Columbas. This is our third win in the County League and means we have already qualified for the semi finals. A performance which saw us outscore St Columbas in everyquarter, was based on some excellent shooting from outside (Kieron hit 30 points, almost half from 3 pointers) and strong rebounding from both ends of the court. Ben and Josh played some excellent defence whilst Aidan and Jamie shot well both inside and from outside. A win against Stanborough next Wednesday will hopefully see us top the group and have a home draw in the County semi final after half term. Well done to the whole squad on another excellent performance.
