R.C. Murphy Junior High School recently held its much-anticipated annual Staff vs. Student basketball game, an event that brings together school spirit, friendly competition and plenty of excitement.

Organized by the physical education and world language departments, the event is a highlight of the year for both students and faculty. A key part of the lead-up to the game is a 3-on-3 basketball tournament held each March, in celebration of March Madness. The tournament is coordinated by world language teacher Mr. Geoninatti and open to all students.

The winning teams from the eighth and ninth grade brackets earn the unique opportunity to represent the student body in the final Staff vs. Student game. This year’s matchup showcased the talent, teamwork and sportsmanship of both sides, with the gym filled with cheers and support from the entire school community.
