... WINNERS! Once know as The Battle for the Shadow 3 on 3 basketball tourney with Zahm Hall, the Battle has been reorganized to become the Steds Invitational, a sports tourney with whomever is living in Zahm Hall. Why? Because the Gentlemen are always looking to add to their Hall’s long and storied history. This year, with Fisher Hall residing in Zahm, a 3 on 3 basketball tourney with the Fishermen was held. With games behind played on both the Steds and Zahm courts, the championship game was played at Steds. Amid hamburgers and hot dogs being grilled on the Steds patio, a team of Steds seniors, the good guys, brought the home the “W.” Suffice it to say, there was much rejoicing!
On the win...
Jonny Gailius shared, “We weren’t the most talented team, but we fought hard and took care of our bodies. It’s an honor to be champion," with Ryan Connolly adding, “It was really all about keeping it fundamental down low. No shots outside of the paint and hard rebounding. These new age basketball players wanna shoot threes instead of using their size like John “too many jump shots” Digenan. Not us.”
Finally, Sam Jenkins declared, "Some things are talent, some things are fate."
CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR STEDS INVITATIONAL WINNERS!
