A Testament of Determination, Grit and Resilience at the Inter-House Basketball Tournament 2024  

Reviewed by Shahrukh Fairooz, Nilesh Siriwardane and Nimuthu Pathiraja  

On the 11th and 12th of March,   teams of energetic and talented basketball players met at the College basketball court, with the sole objective of championing their house. The atmosphere surrounding this significant event was charged with infectious vibes and, it was truly a breath-taking experience for everyone.  

With the last tournament being held in 2020, there were high hopes for a stunning tournament this year.  

Before anyone knew it, the first match had already begun. The clock was ticking, and the environment was getting heated up by the second and as the day continued, the excitement only geared up.  

The second day started with high hopes as the matches already played, revealed the more prominent teams.  

Throughout the two days, a great display of exceptional skills lit up the Basketball Tournament. The excitement and hype were sizable due to the thrilling, yet friendly competition. 

In the end, Pilcher House and Central Boarding House emerged triumphant. Despite this, all the teams performed exceptionally well, and many new talents were unearthed. After many twists and turns, the results were as follows.  
 

Middle School 
1st place  – Pilcher House ( 4 wins – 44 points ) 

2nd place – Gibson House ( 3 wins –  57 points) 

3rd place  – Saunders House ( 1 win – 30 points ) 

4th place  – Squealery House ( 1 win – 27 points ) 

5th place  – Sahayam House (0 wins – 20 points ) 

Upper School 

1st place – Central Boarding House (5 wins – 127 points) 

2nd place – Lemuel House  ( 4 wins – 58 points) 

3rd place – Simithraaratchy House ( 2 wins – 66 points) 

4th place – Ooroof House ( 1 win –  58 points) 

5th place – Garret House ( 0 wins – 31 points) 

We think it is very fair to state that this event was a resounding success. Special thanks must be delivered to the Principal, Rev. Fr. Araliya Jayasundara OSB, Vice Principals, Mr. Krishanthan Anthonydas and Mr. Ananada Marasinghe, the Teacher-In-Charge Mr. Dulanjaya Abeywickrama, all the judges, all the players, parents and everyone who contributed to this event.
