After last season, St. Andrew's School athletics will try and repeat yesterday's ceremony, getting another ring.
During the 2021–2022 athletic year, the Lions roared with girls swimming crowns in addition to a boys' basketball state championship. In front of the entire school on Thursday, pre-k to 12th grade, the season's champions received state championship rings in a ceremony that began early in the morning.
The boy's basketball team won 14 straight games in a row, including a 49-47 triumph against John Milledge Academy in the GISA state final.
