St. John Fisher Boys See Success
St. John Fisher Archangels finish first in the CYO Southbay Division and make school history.

St. John Fisher Boy's Basketball Coach Tom Scott writes about his team's winning season:
The St. John Fisher Archangels finished the CYO Southbay Division with an unblemished record by traveling to American Martyr's Monday afternoon and defeating the team 48-17.
The game was called with more than eight minutes remaining with a lead greater than 25 points. The Archangels used a well-balanced attack with Stanton Gilbertson, Gavin Branigan and Liam Armstrong in the backcourt and the strength and size of the three powerful players — Jason Burr, Jarett Balter and Nick Giordano — to overwhelm the American Martyr Mustangs on their own court.
