Congratulations to our Varsity Boys’ Basketball team for winning first place at a Christmas Basketball Tournament hosted by Cairn University on December 29 and 30, beating Faith Christian Academy of Sellersville, PA in the championship round in overtime play. The Varsity Girls’ team also advanced to the championship game, but lost to Faith Christian Academy of Sellersville, finishing in second place.

12th grader Aaron Glancey and 11th grader Caleb Vogel were named to the All-Tournament Boys’ team, with Vogel also being named the Tournament Boys’ MVP. 10th grader Evangelina Kim was named to the All Tournament Girls’ team.

“We’re proud of the way both teams played,” said Athletic Director Pam Hitchner. “The tournament gave us an opportunity to compete against teams from other states that are not part of our conference and see how we match up.”   The four schools who competed in the tournament were: Atlantic Christian School, Faith Christian Academy (Sellersville, PA); Faith Christian Academy (Martinsburg, WV); and Lancaster County Christian School (Lancaster, PA).

As of mid-January, the Tri-State Christian Athletic Conference (TSCAC) basketball season is just getting underway. The Varsity Boys’ team has an overall record of 5-5 and is 1-1 in the TSCAC and the Varsity Girls’ team is 6-5 overall and 2-0 in the TSCAC.

Please check the Athletic Calendar on the ACS website or the Family App for the schedule of upcoming games and come on out to cheer for our Cougars.  Photo credits: Ruby Lewis.
