By 3:15 p.m. on Friday most of the De la Base Fest activities were over, and the crowd in the Triton Center had dwindled down to less than a 100.

But those who stayed to watch the Final Four and Championship game of the 3-on-3 basketball tournament saw quite a show.  Ultimately, the four seniors from the Class of 2022 defeated the staff. . . . but it wasn’t easy.

Girls Basketball Head Coach Sarah Rohde and NDA points-leader Chris Mitchell traded baskets that drew gasps while “youngsters” Anthony Schumann and Daniel Kriegl, along with veteran Greg Geiser, made their share of shots as well.

Those joining Mitchell in dethroning the faculty team were Thomas Petitjean, Erik Sack and George Streckenbach.
