Swan Valley Middle School

The SVMS 3x3 Basketball League brought to you by SV Community Education concluded its regular season in epic fashion. This year we had 12 teams with around 50 athletes, including 3 female only teams!!! The Celtics took home first place going into the post season tournament. The team is led by Lucas Kench, Teegan Simmons, Hudon Yaw, and Sergio Medina. Overall, Xander Walle took home the scoring title with his ferocious rebounding and paint prowess! Who will take home the coveted SVMS 3x3 Basketball Championship?

It has been a thrilling and overly hot start to SVMS Sand VB! Currently Texas A & M are in first place at 16-2. This team is led by Grace Horny at captain who has a fierce serve and a non-stop hustle! Other top contributors on this squad are Lucy Vlassis, Harper Miller, Ariana Mantavalos, Piper Sova, Izzy Steiner, and the top notch Libero- Addy Larkin. Watch out though! Alabama is surging- led by Gabby Katz, Paisley Dobis, and the voice of the team- Lauren Key! Who will come out on top with two weeks left? Only time will tell.....
