During the tournament, three girls took it upon themselves to help raise even more money. They sat up a lemonade stand during the tournament and sold glasses of lemonade to the players. All proceeds were donated to the boy’s basketball team.
The Lemonade Girls recognized last night were Ella Hissong, Oliva Newcomb, and Brenna Large.
