We’re #1! Congratulations to our ACS Varsity Boys’ and Girls’ Basketball Teams, who are this year’s Tri-State Christian Athletic Conference Champions. The Boys’ team beat King’s Christian School 52-46 in an exciting, fast-paced match on Saturday, March 20. The undefeated Lady Cougars also brought home the regular season and TSCAC Championship trophies, but due to COVID-19 outbreaks on several teams, the championship final game was not played.
The ACS Boys’ Team, seeded #2, took the lead in the first quarter and never gave it up. The #1-seeded King’s Christian team battled back to come within four points in the 4th quarter, but clutch free throws sunk by senior point guard Malachi Green in the final minutes held back King’s and helped bring the TSCAC Championship trophy back to ACS for the 11th time in school history.
ACS hosted the championship game and the Conference Awards Program held after the Boys’ game. Congratulations to senior Cristen Winkel, who was named the TSCAC Girls’ MVP. We’re also proud of the nine ACS players who were named TSCAC All-Stars: Olivia Chapman, Shelby Einwechter, Aaron Glancey, Malachi Green, Sydney Pearson, Jacob Rosie, Caleb Vogel, Chloe Vogel, and Cristen Winkel.
Thank you to Boys’ Head Coach Dan Carney and Assistant Coaches Ben Chapman and Drew Carney and Girls’ Head Coach Kaylee Breunig and Assistant Coach Dara Kimmerley for a great season!
