Badger Athlete of the Week ~ By Hanna Alldrin
Angels Camp, CA.....New basketball shoes $85, a basketball $25, making the winning shot ~Priceless. Thursday evening the seventh-grade boys basketball team at Mark Twain played against last years AMA champions, Jackson Elementary. The whole game was pretty much neck-to-neck until one player made the most important shot of the game. Twelve-year-old, Jaime Faull from Mark Twain made the winning shot with 1.8 seconds left in the game.....
