High School Basketball and a Community

By ashshepherd16 - Posted on March 15th, 2008

Nothing brings a community closer than a sporting event, in my opinion. The last two days I have had the wonderful experience of attending the Illinois state high school basketball 3A Final Four games. Unfortunately my team finished in fourth, suffering only the 4th and 5th loses of our 30+ game season.
