St. Anthony’s Sabres and Saints from bygone eras will be back on the court come Friday, February 12.
The school is hosting its sixth annual Alumni games. This will put the school’s current team up against teams made up of former players. The girls are on the court at 6 p.m., and the boys at 7:30 p.m.
The alumni game is a great opportunity for young players to meet some of the hoopsters who have come before, and learn more about the game and traditions. Some of the former players have gone on to play at the college level.
It also makes for some great basketball.
This year some of the alumni players will get a chance to see if the can squeeze into their old uniforms.
Coach Gavin Makse explains that this year they have purchased new uniforms for the senior teams, and to help cover the expense, they are auctioning off the old uniforms, shorts and jerseys, to former players. Bidding has already started and there is a lot of interest.
To get in on the action, check out the “St. Anthony’s Sr. Sabres Boys and Girls Alumni Basketball Game” Facebook group.
