After the wonderful skills on display from the Rounders teams, the Basketball final had a lot to live up to…And the second final of the day didn’t disappoint! Team Captains Kevin Eustace and Keri McConville can be very proud of the display that their teams gave on the day. The first half was a thrilling spectacle with Keri’s team leading the way with brilliant defensive play as Kevin’s team continued to push forward. The first half over, spectators and teachers knew that a scintillating second half loomed. Kevin’s team just proved a little stronger in the end but Keri’s team can be very proud of their team performance.
