On Tuesday evening, January 29th, the high school basketball teams competed against the Brewster Bulldogs in Brewster.  The junior varsity boys team was the only St. Francis team to win their game on the evening.  Both JV teams played two quarters only.

The JV boys led 9-7 at the end of one quarter.  The game was tied at 19 with 1:05 left.  St. Francis forged a 22-19 lead with a few seconds left in the game.  Brewster rushed the ball down the court and hit a three.  The the shot that would have tied the game did not count due to the fact that the Brewster coach called a time out just before the shot.  After another Brewster shot attempt, St. Francis rebounded and hit a free throw to ice the game.  Final score:  St. Francis 23 - Brewster 19.
