On February 18-20, 2010, the high school Boys Junior Varsity, Girls Varsity, and Boys Varsity basketball teams traveled north to participate in the Cardinal Classic 2010 Basketball Tournament. This event was sponsored by Andrews University which is located in Berrien Springs, Michigan.
Our Varsity Girls Stallions took 1st place winning their division at the tournament! Varsity Boys fought hard losing against Andrews Academy by only three points, 41-36, taking 4th place. And while our Junior Varsity Boys did not win any of their games they were honored with a beautiful 'Sportmanship Award' because they demonstrated such an honorable Christian spirit and attitude. In fact, this is the first year every SVA team came away with award recognition. SVA Team members individually honored overall for their performance:
Joey Eugene (Sophomore) - Most Valuable Player for Junior Varsity Boys
Andrea Hoover (Junior) - Most Valuable Player for Varsity Girls and Winner of 3 Point Hoop Contest
Gregory Cunningham (Senior) - Most Valuable Player for Varsity Boys
Team Coaches include Varsity Girls: Dann Hotelling-Head, & Mark Velasco-Assistant; Varsity Boys: David Donnelly-Head, & Daanan Foster-Assistant; and Junior Varsity Boys: Larry Bartram.
All teams competed with good sportsmanship and a Christian demeanor! Special thanks goes to those parents, family and friends who supported our teams by their attendance. Congratulations, STALLIONS, on a job well done!
