Our 7th–12th grade Lady Eagles basketball teams are raising money by shooting 100 free throws each!

You can sponsor a player by donating per shot made or giving a flat amount. All money raised helps with meals, travel, gear, and more!

To sponsor a player please reach out to Coach Banks at banksa@desarcschools.org OR find a Lady Eagle!

Thank you for your support!

This summer, our basketball girls took on a 5,000 Shot Challenge—and here’s the final leaderboard!

Each player had to make 5,000 shots outside of regular practice and report their progress to Coach Banks periodically.

Awesome job, girls!
