Nearly 600 high school youth participated in the CYO High School Basketball season this year with a snow storm forcing the end of season tournament to be moved to the following weekend. CYO Basketball Director, Jenna Bass did a masterful job of finding gym space to finish of the season for the men and women and “make it happen!”
In both boys and girls Championship play, the closing minutes of the games found the teams in very close proximity to one another and tied in several instances. Jesuit managed to pull it off with 5 of their 8 players with three missing due to their class retreat.
Central Catholic Men gave Jesuit a great game and it was anyones to have up to the end with a final score of 56 – 53 Jesuit.
Dulcich’s Jesuit Women’s team made it clear they came to play. After an 8 – 0 start, Petrusich’s Jesuit Women’s team came alive and tied the game. After a back and forth through out the game pattern, Petrusich’s Women went ahead by 5 and Dulcich Jesuit could not catchup. A great contest between two groups of senior women who enjoyed playing one another.
