(3) Victorian College Championships — Junior Finals
After a successful qualifying day, our junior basketball teams were invited to compete in the Victorian College Championships Junior Finals against schools around Victoria, with competition held on Tuesday 13 June at the State Basketball Centre. It was a tough day for the teams, as the majority of the students had participated in the Nunawading Classic tournament for their local sporting teams on the King's birthday long weekend. To play another full day of basketball was tough and challenged their physical and mental strength, but our students soldiered on and displayed fantastic basketball for MLMC.
Well done to the junior boys (pictured) who made it to the semi-finals before unfortunately losing to the overall winners of the tournament, Flinders College Sports Academy.
It was an amazing effort displayed by the junior girls, continuously striving for their best. Thank you to Mr John Walsh, who coached the girls.
