Night out in Hoboken High School

Crowd escapes rain to see ‘Harlem Wizards’

On Thursday, March 10, hundreds of students, residents, teachers, and administrators packed the Hoboken High School Gymnasium for a fun-filled basketball game between “The Rockin’ Redwings” – a team made up of teachers, students, and city residents – and the Harlem Wizards, an entertainment style basketball team whose high-flying dunks and trick shots wowed the crowd. The money event served as a fundraiser for the different classes at Hoboken High School.
“We’re happy to have such a great turnout despite the weather,” said Mrs. Burrell, a teacher at Hoboken High School.
The heavy rains didn’t keep the crowd away. But in the scripted game, the Wizards were able to defeat the home squad.
