GCAA intramural basketball has now ended. Thanks to all the volunteers who made this a great season for GCAA basketball. The GCAA made a lot of strides, especially at the very young level.

K's

A big thanks to Doug O'connor, Joe Scattareggia and all the other volunteers who led the K's to a level few expected to see. Well done!! State Champions in 2018?

First Graders

A big thanks to John Gallagher, Dan Dignam, Brendan Wooten and all the others for their endless work with the first graders! Outstanding!

We finished with a full court, 5 v 5 game on ten-foot baskets. The parents who saw it know the incredible potential in this class of hoopsters!

Second Graders

A big thanks to John Feyrer and Scott Paskewitz who led the second graders away from 'line drills' and into full court games. This class will be feared on the courts in years to come.

Third Grade Boys

Thanks to coordinators Joe Leighton and Charlie Riceman and congrats to the Bulls who slipped by the Pacers by two points to win the title.

Fourth Grade Boys

Thanks to coordinators Tom Granville and John Lori and congrats to the Lakers who nipped the Bulls 28-20 to win the championship.

Fifth-Sixth Grade Boys

Thanks to coordinators Tom Granville and Ryan Kelly and congrats to the Lakers who upended the Knicks 30-27 to win the title.

Fifth-Eighth Grade Girls

Thanks to coordinator Dan Dignam and congrats to the Mystics who outlasted the Monarchs to snare first.

Third-Fourth Grade Girls

Thanks to coordinators Tom Bruno and Greg Raphael and although games were cancelled due to the storm last week, games will be played this week and a champion crowned on Friday night!
