I've just recently heard of a PV student's death during the week of Flyer's Cup. Do you think this had any impact on the performance of the team?

BTW, very sorry to hear that it happened. We had a similar situation early in the season in our school.

My son didn't mention it to me and he's asleep now. I'll get the scoop and respond during the day on Thursday.

As I understand what happened, there was an auto accident in which a JV player from Perk. Valley was driving with a young lady passenger, who was also a PV student. Apparently, the young lady did not survive the accident and the driver was, at last report, hospitalized in serious or critical condition. This did occur during the Flyers Cup competition. As tragic as this is, however, the only thing responsible for PV's performance throughout the tournament, in both victory and, finally, defeat, was their own play...good enough to win some, not good enough to get past Rustin in the semis. I'm told that this horrible accident did not affect the team's play.
