Alumni, their parents, and friends filled the ACS gym on December 20 for the annual Alumni Basketball Games and fans were treated to some exciting, fast-paced basketball as over two dozen alumni took to the court for some friendly competition. The Alumni Girls’ Basketball Game, the first game of the evening, featured 14 former players who competed for ACS from 2008-2021. The white team won handily by a score of 57-31. The Alumni Boys’ Basketball Game saw 12 former players from the 2013-2021 graduating classes face off in a game that went down to the wire, with the green team winning 68-66. Dozens of alumni cheered from the bleachers and enjoyed complimentary food provided by the ACS Athletic Department.
