🏀 Historic Season for Kehillah Basketball
The Kehillah basketball teams had a historic season! Both teams placed first in the PSAL North Division and earned automatic bids into the CCS tournament. They both played with heart and determination, proving they belonged among the best!
The girls team faced University Prep Academy in a nail-biting game but fell short, losing 50-48. The boys team played a thrilling rematch against Pinewood, which was tied at the end of regulation but ultimately lost in overtime.
Congratulations to both teams on an incredible season!
