FAMILIES UNITE FOR SPECIAL TIME
Fathers and daughters bond in night to remember

The Father Daughter Dinner Dance turned out to be a roaring success! With around 200 participants, the Roaring 20’s dance was lively and exciting from start to finish.

Varied activities throughout the night kept the crowd entertained. When the guests first arrived, they filled out a “How Well Do You Know Your Dad (or Daughter)” sheet as a little challenge to test the dad’s and daughter’s knowledge of one another. Then of course dancing was continuous throughout the night, as well as a few raffles with such prizes as a $50 gift certificate to Westfield, $50 to Cheesecake Factory, a $75 massage at Courtside Club, an adorable Doonie and Bourke wristlet, and much more! There were also two silent auctions: One for a dinner cooked by the firefighters at the firehouse, as well as a tour around the firehouse. The other was for a week getaway at a beautiful beach house in Pacific Grove, literally one foot from the beach! The recipients of these wonderful auctions, Paul Griffith and Eric Rottman, were no doubt, very pleased! continued in news...

BOYS BBALL TAKES CCS
Team also wins tough WCAL

In a year unlike any this school has ever seen, the boys varsity basketball team has established many firsts for the program. On the heels of an amazingly successful regular season (2nd place finish), Valley Christian began the WCAL playoffs in strong contention for the tournament crown.

Being one of the few teams to defeat the Warriors in league play, the St. Francis Lancers hardly darted below the VC radar. Lacking a game-changing run, VC used balance and consistency to maintain their lead. VC took the game, 45-40.Junior Terrence Worthy’s amazing hustle resulted in 14 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists for the guard. Senior Montel Lee led all scorers with 16 points, and senior Jerry Cotton contributed 11.

The St. Francis win set up a rematch against Archbishop Mitty, victorious over Valley the previous two meetings. Wise to Mitty’s schemes and abilities, the Warriors simply refused to give. Worthy sparked the offense with 21 points and 5 assists, and senior Cameron Bradford was a force at both ends, scoring 12 points, grabbing 8 rebounds, and containing Mitty star Alex Okafor. This combination led to the Warriors’ 60-50 triumph.

Quite possibly the most significant game in Valley Christian’s basketball history took place at Foothill College February 19. Facing the Archbishop Riordan Crusaders for the WCAL championship was the farthest any VC team had ever gotten in WCAL competition. The game proved thrilling. Despite trailing throughout the first. continued in news...
