On May 1st, the SCA and senior class held the new Student Faculty Basketball game in the gymnasium in an effort to raise money for senior prom and future SCA events. Tickets cost $5 to enter, with concessions also available for purchase.
When the game started, the crowd was very energetic and rowdy. Students were on their feet cheering to see their teachers and classmates.
“The first quarter began strong. [The different plays] were crazy active. My friend group and I loved cheering for our friend Ezyah,” said senior Lucas Ponce.
With the game progressing, there were many highlights from each of the four quarters. Memorable players included seniors Lance Lordeus and Justin Hastings, as well as teachers Daniel Diaz and Lloyd Deloatch.
“Mr. Diaz was very entertaining… [But I think] Lance was the best student player,” said senior Aven Spreder.
Likewise, many viewers enjoyed the commentary from student activity coordinator Sarah Fernheimer and senior Izaya Choice.
“I thought the commentary [from] Ms. Fernheimer and Izaya were funny. They said airball whenever someone missed,” said Ponce. “Fern would NEVER approve of this, but she did it anyway. She aimed for Mr. Clark.”
As the game came to a close with each quarter lasting 8 minutes, the ending score was 47 to 62.
“In the later parts of the game, the energy was insane. Each side kept scoring until the teachers ended up winning 47 to 62,” said senior Elijah Harfst.
This was just one of the many memorable events that the Senior Class and SCA had to offer. As the class of 2025 wraps up their school year with this as one of their lasts, make sure to keep up with future events next year!
