TMP-M

On Saturday, Thomas More Prep-Marian and Hays High School Student Councils teamed up to host a TMP-M versus HHS Faculty/Staff basketball game to raise funds for the Hays ARC Park.

Along with the basketball game, the event consisted of a student dunk contest and Hays Police Department versus Hays Fire Department three-point shooting contest. The game was a close and entertaining game, and TMP-M came out victorious. The winner of the dunk contest was HHS student Trey Adams and TMP-M student Jack Johnson took runner-up. For the three-point contest, the Hays Fire Department came out on top with Travis Hageman making six three pointers over the HPD’s Kyle Comstock with four three pointers.

The fundraising goal between both schools was $4,000 and, by the end of the evening, the grand total fundraised was $4,323. Since the goal was met, TMP-M Principal, Chad Meitner and HHS teacher and girls basketball coach Alex Hutchins received a pie in the face.

“Both student councils groups would like to thank everyone who participated in the event as well as those who donated both time and money,” TMP-M said in a news release.
