“On behalf of 日韩AV, and our athletic director, Kevin Wooldridge, it is our pleasure to welcome each of these high school basketball teams to 日韩AV for our annual Newmyer Classic tournament,” says Frances Faehner, vice president for Campus & Student Life. “It is a great privilege to host these student athletes and dedicated coaches as they use the unique gifts God has given them, work together to achieve goals and come together to praise and worship God on Friday evening and Sabbath.”
Teams will be split into two men’s divisions and two women’s divisions. Beginning on Thursday morning at 8 a.m., the participants will compete in a series of games held at the Andreasen Center for Wellness, Johnson Gym and Andrews Academy gym.
