Urban Prep basketball teams face-off By Kejaun Barbee Staff Writer, Bronzeville
The Urban Prep basketball teams across our network have competed against teams from around the city of Chicago this season. However, to conclude the regular season, our campuses were given an opportunity to compete against one another in what we call the “Brotherhood Bowl”. Since each of these three games featured graduating seniors, those young men and their parents were recognized during half-time at each game. Our Englewood and Bronzeville Campus competed on January 24th at the Englewood Campus with Englewood winning 70 to 56. Then, West and Englewood competed on February 12th with Englewood winning 73 to 37. The final game was on February 18th where Bronzeville competed against West at Taylor Park with Bronzeville walking away victorious. The final score was 57 to 55.
