Boy’s Basketball – Immaculate Heart of Mary School

For the 2020 season, IHMS had two boy’s basketball teams:

A more experienced “A” team coached by Coach Martin.
A developmental or “B” team, coached by Mr. Rogelio and Mr. Szutiak

The Boy’s “A” Team

The players on the boy’s “A” team consisted of a mixture of grade 6, 7 and 8 students. They were: Sean D., Inder B. Yovan J., Darius M., Conor R., Anton A., Stefan D., Daniel L., Daniel T., and Nicholas W.

During regular season action, the boy’s A team played 9 games, winning 5 of those games and losing 4.

They entered one tournament, the St. Paul’s Tournament, where they won the first game, but lost the second, knocking them out of the tournament.

During the basketball playoffs at the end of the season, the boys won their first two games against St. Emile and St. Charles. After moving on to the semi-finals, they played against and lost to Holy Cross, the number 1 ranked team in the league. They played one last game against St. Gerard and lost, ending the season in 4th place overall.

The Boy’s Developmental Team

The players on the boy’s developmental team were: Sirak A., Joachim B., Lukyan B., Ryker F., Marko K., Carson R., Bereketeab T., Jordon S., Nazar B., Dennis D., Justin F., and Maxim K.

During the regular season, the boys played 8 games and won 5 of them! They also entered a tournament hosted by St. Gerard School where they played 3 games and won 2 of those games.

There are no rankings for developmental teams in the Manitoba Catholic Schools Athletic Association (they play for fun and experience), but overall the boy’s “B” team picked up a lot of valuable experience for next year. Well done, boys!
