   It’s become a tradition here in our communities for the All Saints on the Hudson Youth Council to embrace the cause of a person in each community each year who needs financial as well as moral support by putting on a benefit basketball extravaganza.

or many youngsters, March is all about high school sections, the college championships, and the weather getting warm enough to play hoops (along with lacrosse and baseball) outside.  This March is different, however, because it’s going to get hotter inside, too.
