Last Friday the Girls Basketball Teams played their last games of the regular season here at Antonian.  The Freshmen Team lost 53-63 but put forth great efforts.  Maria Tijerina scored an unbelievable 27 points.  Other players scoring were Hannah Gomez (10 points), Tori Poole (6 points), Leslie Heintzelman (6 points), Emily Kirby (5 points), Bernadette Hoffman (3 points) and Danielle Cruz (2 points).  The JV Team finished with a 7-1 record in district by beating Providence 52-44.  Leading the way were juniors Elizabeth Joyce and Monica McCown with 12 points each.  Gabby Sanchez added 6 points and Brittany Sandoval added 5 points.  The Varsity finished third in district with a 5-3 record by beating the Provets 69-54.  Freshman Jasmine Malone scored 19 points, had 13 rebounds and 7 steals.  Junior Casey Lee had 12 points, freshman Sarah Figueroa chipped in 11 points with 6 rebounds.  Other scorers were senior Laura Sheffy with 8 points, Lana Mallet with 7 points, Lauren Heintzelman with 7 points, Katy Osborn with 3 points and Kayla Bishop with 2 points.  The Girls Basketball program would like to thank everyone who came out to support their efforts throughout the season.  The Varsity Team will be playing their regional playoff game on Friday February 18 at 6:00pm at Belton High School against St. Agnes from Houston.  Good Luck through playoffs, Ladies!

* Hear ye, Hear ye, Hear ye, Court is now in Session!  Kudos goes to Danielle Steele, Josh Sandoval, Joshua Avelar, Karissa Sanchez, and freshmen Candace Trevino, Steven Adrete, and Michael Skiles for their incredible performance this past Saturday at the 26^th Annual Texas High School Mock Trial Competition.  Going into the tournament our Mock Trial Team had the odds stacked against them.  Antonian was the only private school in the tournament as they beat Alamo Heights, Southside, and Roosevelt.  It’s only misstep came in a very, very close first round against Reagan, who had 2 attorneys guiding them.  Our team just missed the final four as “previously-defeated” Roosevelt was able to squeeze through by a mere ½ ballot on points.  What made the team’s efforts so truly noteworthy were that it had never competed in a Mock Trial before and it had three freshmen on the team.  But more importantly, the other schools had the tremendous advantage of having one or more attorneys to train them throughout their preparation process.  Most of the schools in the tournament began their preparation in August where our team only had 2½ weeks and only one attorney for just one hour during their brief time of preparation.  After the first round, against the 2-attorney assisted Reagan, the Buzz-Word was out; “Antonian was the underdog to watch as we had all of our opponents on their heels.”  Among the Giants, our team truly stood “Tall.”  Congratulations to our Mock Trial Team for a staggeringly impressive team effort.  This experience could not have been possible if it were not for the strong leadership of Team Captains Danielle Steele and Josh Sandoval.  We are so very proud of all of you! 

* Attention Apaches: Your Silver Dancers are selling Valentine Cards all this week for only $1.00.  The cards will be personalized and given with a small bag of candy.  Please help out your favorite Silver Dancer and buy a card for that special someone.
