ICE All-Conference players!

Gavin Berger & Dane Noffsinger

Two young men who work their tails off every day and carry themselves the right way on and off the court. Very well-deserved! Congrats Berg and Noff!

[Joe Micetich @CoalerHoops]

I can’t express how proud I am of this team. Especially our seniors: Gavin, Dylan, Carter, Dane, Gaven, Julian, and Rowan. The time they have put into this program will not be forgotten. It was a pleasure to coach you all.

Our season came to a close tonight. Final score 41-48. The game was tied up after each of the first three quarters. Just couldn’t get it done in the fourth.
