The Level 8 girls team had a busy weekend of basketball. The girls traveled to University School of Milwaukee (USM) on Friday night for a pair of games against USM and the Prairie School and then traveled to Messmer on Saturday afternoon. The girls dropped the games against The Prairie School and Messmer, but were victorious against USM. They jumped out to an early lead and were able to hold on with stingy defense. The final score was 24-19.

The Level 8 boys Gold team played five games last week. The team got the week started off on a positive, defeating Heritage Christian 55-28.

The team lost a pair of tight games to USM and The Prairie School before dropping a game to undefeated St. Jude's Saturday morning.

On Sunday, the boys were handed a forfeit win over Messmer/St. Rose.

The boys have an 11-7 overall record with a 5-4 record in league play. With just four games left to play in the regular season, the boys are motivated to play well in hopes of receiving an invitation to the Padre Serra Tournament.
