RCMS Wins BACSAL Boys Basketball Championship
The Redwood Christian Middle School Boys basketball “A Team” completed the 2024-25 season with a perfect 13-0 record, a division championship and conference championship in the Bay Area Christian Schools Athletic League.
The Eagles were awarded a first round bye and began playoffs by hosting North Creek Academy from Walnut Creek. The Eagles were able to cruise home with a 50-40 final score. The Eagles were led by Will Farrington's 20 points.
The next round featured a division rematch with Valley Christian-Dublin. Four Eagles players led the way with double digit scoring. Will Farrington led with 19 points followed by 17 from Davion Berry, 11 from Kayden Wu and 10 from Anthony Osborn.
In the championship, the Eagles were matched up with another division champion in Cornerstone Christian of Antioch. RCS came out strong and played their best game of the season by jumping out early to an 11-0 start. The Eagles went to halftime up 42-18 and were able to maintain distance the rest of the way to win the championship 65-39. The most impressive part of the game was that RCS only gave up one three pointer in the game to a very good perimeter team. The Eagles ended with three players scoring in double figures led by Davion Berry with 18 points, Anthony Osborn with 16 points and Kayden Wu with 10 points.
While RCS ended with 4 starters averaging double figures on the season, they also received key contributions from Nick Sherman, Noli Dawit, Sam Hill, Amaru Guanzon and Josh Redemer who also had at least one start on the season and had significant impacts on the team success by filling various roles on the team depending on the situations presented each game.
While always great to end the season with a championship, it was just as fulfilling to see these players develop so that they can be more prepared for next season!
Coach Babinat and Coach Skjong appreciate the efforts “by all the players and incredible support of the families involved in making this season such a great success!”
