5 things you may not have known about Mt. Carmel basketball:
- After years of losing and hovering in the lower tier, MCS Boys’ Basketball has once again risen to prominence, with an 8-2 record in the 2017-18 season and then going 9-1 this season.
- MCS basketball program prioritizes teaching our kids how to play basketball the right way for life rather than just winning the game today.
- We look for high character first, talent second. We believe that anyone can learn to dribble and shoot a ball. It takes good character for a young man to represent Mt. Carmel and himself, on and off the court.
- We emphasize, expect and will help develop strong mental focus as much as top physical conditioning.
- Mt. Carmel is just a couple of players away from taking home the Middle School Championship once again!
