The SLES 7/8 Grade Boys had a great season, entering the championship bracket with 2 wins and 1 loss. The team beat Galileo 27-17 in round 1 with every team member taking to the court and showing great defense and drilling their 3-point shots. In the next round, the Pritzker team was strong (and tall!), knocking them out of the playoffs.
The coaches felt this season was a great way for the kids to step outside their comfort zone and learn some new skills, whether it’s basketball skills or how to work with a new team. The boys worked hard all season and saw improvement in all their skills every game.
Coaches: Katherine Neville (parent of Gabe and Liam) & Marc Dumas (parent of TJ)
“It was so rewarding seeing this group go from individuals to a team as the season progressed. Every practice you saw them develop confidence in themselves and each other and saw their hard work paying off. To me that’s a sign of success!” – Kate
