Zakaria Sharif says, “Overall I
thought it was a success, even
though we lost to the faculty.
We didn’t want to make them

game competitive.”
Kevin Jackson said, “That

All players and fans were in

and Swishes for Wishes suc

their overall goal of $3,400.
Cerroni said,” Between a

and a hard-fought game, we
feel the event was both fun and
successful.”
