SJS JV Girls Win Deanery Championship
/in St. James Notices /by Saint James SchoolLast night the St. James JV Girls earned a hard fought victory against a tough St. Tim’s team, winning 29-21 in the Central CT Deanery Championship. The win also earned the girls a #1 seed in the upcoming State Tournament. This marks the JV Girls fourth Deanery Championship in a row. Coach Jaime Jablonecki said of the win, “Our girls rose to the challenge last night! Saint Tim’s had the size advantage all night long, but in the 4th quarter these girls just refused to give up and their big hearts came through. Saint James should be very proud of each and every one of these girls with how they represented our school.” Great job Sabers!!
