Congratulations !!
A team:
In a dominant 58-31 victory over the Falcons, Alex Pike and Eli Anders led the way as the top scorers, with Alex finishing with 22 points and Eli contributing 16. Their offensive performances and Xander Walle’s rebounding were key to the win. Braylon Mendoza also made a significant impact with his strong defense, limiting the opposing team’s scoring, and adding to the team’s overall success. The combination of solid offense and defense powered the team to a convincing win.
B team:
In a strong performance against the Freeland Falcons, the Swan Valley Vikings came out on top with a decisive 39-19 victory. Isaac Mauch and Carson Beohler led the charge for the Vikings, each scoring 10 points. Abel Dobis also played a key role, contributing 8 points. The Vikings’ defense was stifling, and their offense was efficient, securing the comfortable win over the Falcons.

HELP GIVE BACK TO OUR COMMUNITY
By: Sophia Burns
I never thought I’d feel so fulfilled as I did on Saturday. I couldn't feel my fingers or my toes
because of how cold it was, but my heart was still warm. My family, along with others from our
area, packed boxes and distributed food to people in need. We packed the boxes with food
such as meats, fruits, vegetables, drinks, and more. It was one of the coolest and most fulfilling
service projects I think I have ever done. If you want to get the same feeling as I did, here are
some ways to give back to our community. If you would also like to give back to our community,
please reach out to these local non-profit organizations listed below.

8th Grade HOOPS - What a week for basketball! The B team kicked things off with an impressive win against the Falcons on Monday, taking the game 36-29. Shoutout to Quintin O'Neal for leading the charge with 14 points, and a big thanks to Justin Riley for adding 6. Skyler Ortiz, Matt Acha, Don McCoy, Jared Seamon, and Cassen Lagalo also made solid contributions on the scoreboard. And let's not forget Jack Conley, our defensive star, who dominated the boards for the Vikings!
In a nail-biter, the A team fought hard but fell just short against the Falcons, ending with a score of 43-41. Griffin Beougher led the effort with 12 points, while Willie Powell chipped in 9. Sawyer Murphy and Matt Moeller each scored 8 to keep the game close.
Wednesday night brought more action! The B team was unstoppable, crushing Bay City John 38-7. Colten Ray was on fire with 10 points, followed by Ryder Root with 8, and Quintin O'Neal with 7. Don McCoy, Skyler Ortiz, and Hudson Maxa also joined the scoring frenzy!
The A team faced a tough challenge against the Bobcats from John Glenn and ended the game at 59-52. Willie Powell shone with 20 points, and Sawyer Murphy added 14. Matt Moeller contributed 9, while Griffin Beougher, Mason Wilson, and Mo Villegas also put points on the board.
Great job, everyone! Looking forward to next week, even though it's a light schedule with just one game against the Dukes of Garber. Let's keep the momentum going! 💪🏀
