Games will get tougher going forward starting with this afternoon’s game with TWO RIVERS. The weekend will be very demanding as St Joseph’s of Bristol joined the MLK tournament along with a new haven team and a Waterbury team. The MLK event hosted by ST PAULS will have 8 girl’s varsity teams in total. The schedule will be available shortly………………but based on history it is likely we play 2 games on Saturday and if we get to the finals…that will be Monday. Sunday ( if we win 1 on Saturday ) should be after 1 but before 4.
Regarding our 3:30pm game today: Wear visiting color Blue. Try to arrive at 3-3:15…………GAME WILL START AT 3:30.
