Happy Birthday Taupua


Basketball Tournament

Last Monday Western Heights competed in the Henderson Cluster basketball tournament. We entered 2 teams, one in the A and B grade. Both teams tried their hearts out and were a credit to the school. Unfortunately the B team missed out on making the finals by 1 measly point but were voted by the umpires to be the best fairplay side. This was due to the spirit in which they played the game, never giving up and always giving their all. The A team made it through to the semifinals where they defeated Henderson South, the same team they had lost to 20 minutes earlier. This was an action packed game and the A team definitely showed a huge improvement to take the win. The final game of the day, a playoff for third and fourth, was a real nail biter. At one point I was nearly jumping out of my skin. Sunnyvale were a good team but our team was better taking third place. This was a an awesome end to a great day.
