Mentor Christian School"Thy word is truth." John 17:17

Crusader Basketball

The theme verse for the 2007-08 boys basketball team was Luke 16:10 - "He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much, and he that is unjust in the least is unjust also in much."  This was especially true with sixteen players and only twelve uniforms for the team.  Each of the players had to work hard and be responsible in daily tasks to earn first a uniform, then playing time through this highly-competitive season.  The team finished with its best record in four years and earned a third-place trophy in the OCAC tournament.  Dan, the team's MVP, OCAC All-Star, and BCSA Tournament Team member, joined returning seniors Ryan, Thomas, and Mike to provide great leadership for the younger players.  MCS alumnus Mike Iosue also provided a great amount of help as an assistant coach.

"It was a nice change to have the 'problem' of trying to play each of the guys who had worked so hard and improved so much over the course of the season.  I am so thankful for the good spirit and work ethic they had this year." - Coach Tim Hixson
