Basketball Tradition at St. Mark's!

St. Mary's of Bloomington has a nice tradition of praying together with the opposing team, at home and on the road, after games.

The last part of the St. Mark's School motto is: Traditions Thrive. Talented, hard-playing basketball teams have taken the floor on Underhill for decades. For the fifth year, Luke is suiting up in the Marksman blue and gold.

The start of Luke's 8th grade basketball season was delayed a couple of weeks, due to some back pain and a respiratory infection. But he is back in the saddle now. Above he waits with his teammates before the start of the game against St. Mary's of Bloomington.

The boys have been fortunate to have Coach John Stephens mentor them through the years. 

They are a quick, hard working team and always give a great defensive effort.

The Marksmen won this evening.

I didn't get too many action shots. But I promise this won't be my only basketball post. :)

Our children are setting a great example for us!
