Yesterday, Tuesday, February 25, the SLS Boys Varsity Basketball team secured a spot in the FAA championship with an 87-52 win against Brunswick. 

The semi-final game started off slow with a close score, but halfway through the first half SLS pulled ahead to create a huge lead. With top scorers Chuck Clemons ‘20, Gavin Greene ‘20 and Justin Covington ‘22, the team continued to rack up their points throughout the game and played amazing defense. Meanwhile, they were cheered on throughout the game by the huge and supportive student section.

At 4:30 pm on Thursday they will be playing against GFA for the title of FAA champion. Let’s pack the Thunderdome and have the best student section St. Luke’s has ever seen. Go Storm!
