LOUISVILLE – Marshall 1 and Marshall 2 Special Olympic basketball teams earned silver medals this past Saturday at the State Basketball Showcase held at Mid-America Sports in Louisville.
The State Basketball Showcase gives athletes the opportunity to display their proficiency in five basic basketball skills — shooting, free throw shooting, speed dribble, pass and catch and dribble and shoot. Each player is scored based on performance and the team with the highest point totals wins.
Congratulations to these athletes!
