PRIMARY STATE BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS

The McAuley Primary boys' team went to Penrith earlier this week for the Basketball NSW State Championships. They played a great first game against St Joseph's Narrandera but went down 30-16. Next was another tough game against Central Coast Adventist. It was a close first half, but Central Coast got away in the second half to win 28-7. Game 3 was an absolute nail biter, with the boys going into extra time against Maroubra Junction Public School but losing by just 4 points. The next game was a clash of the Tumut teams. It was a tough one against Tumut Public School, who finished first in our division before finals. TPS came away with the win with a score of 36-4. There's some great talent in our little town, and it's impressive to see both schools representing at this level. For their last game, the boys had a re-match against Maroubra. Maroubra got the win 18-8.

McAuley boys played some great basketball over the two days. We couldn't have done it without the super coaching skills of Jed Masters. Thanks to all the parents for making it possible for the boys to attend, and the boys who all showed great skill, sportsmanship and perseverance. You should all be very proud.
