Thanksgiving Tournament

The Saint Edmonds Academy thanksgiving tournament went very well for the Varsity red team. There were 16 teams in this tournament. The varsity red team finished second out of 16 teams. Our first game we won by forfeit to Holy Savior because they didn’t have enough players. The second game we won to Saint John. Chrystom. For the semi finals we beat Saint John the Beloved by 5 or 6. The championship we played St. Thomas of the Apostle it was a close one. But St. Thomas pulled out the win by 3.

NBA 2K13 Game Review

By: Adam Barksdale, Will Lock and Max Krinsky

NBA 2K13 is a great game because it has better graphics, and the skills of the players are more realistic than ever! You can play online with friends or against someone at random around the world. There is a feature called “My Player” which allows you to create your own NBA player and have him declare for the draft out of college, get drafted, and play out an entire season. That feature is very cool because you can choose which team you would like to play on. The dunk contest is probably one of the best features there are so far in NBA 2K13. However, to be able to play the dunk contest you need to pre-order the game NBA 2K13. The dunk contest requires some gaming skill; you get to dunk as any pro player you want to versus any player you want to face. You have the option to do the most cool and creative dunks, and to make the dunk you have to hit all of the buttons on the controller that it tells you to really fast. This game is a must GET!
