Dunkaroos get Gold at Provincial Special Olympics in Kingston!

The Huntsville High School Dunkaroos went undefeated through three divisional games on Tues and four round-robin games on Wednesday at the Provincial Special Olympics basketball tournament held in Kingston between June 5-8.

They faced Leamington District SS Lions in the final game and won 20-16!

They displayed excellent teamwork and sportsmanship, as noted by many coaches and organizers. All team players scored points and supported each other to play at their absolute best and the result was evident.

The team is expected to receive a standing ovation from staff and students at HHS upon their return to school today, Thursday, June 8 at approximately 3 p.m.

Congratulations to everyone involved!
