The Ansonia All Stars – a team of principals and teachers – will play against the Harlem Superstars on Thursday, Nov. 17 at 6 p.m. at Ansonia High School, 20 Pulaski Highway.
The sponsor is the Ansonia Rotary Club, and the funds raised will be used for the club’s educational scholarship.
Ansonia Public Schools will be represented by a talented team of former and current athletes, including AHS Principal Terri Goldson, Prendergast Principal Liz Nimons, Prendergast Assistant Principal Sara Crooks, and Mead Assistant Principal John Coppola.
They will be shored up by a strong teacher contingent, including Mark Shilling and Chris Smith from AHS, Robert Daigle and Brian McDonald from AMS, Dave Velardi and Tim Lynch from Prendergast, and Laura Discenza, Kelly Balanca, Jeanine Spillane and Todd Howes from Mead.
This event has been touted as a family fun evening, with dancing, tricks, slam dunks and an amazing half time show.
Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for students (elementary and high school) and can be purchased in advance at Seccombe’s Men’s Shop, 171 Main Street, Ansonia, or at the door.
