Basketball

The good LORD provided AICA with its first organized athletic team during the 2006-2007 school year, a boy’s high school basketball team. Praise the LORD! After careful deliberation, the name “The Eagles” was chosen, with Isaiah 40:31 in mind:

“But those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint”.

The Eagles played six games in their first season, and earned their first ever victory against the Homeschool Riches on March 15, 2007, winning 34-25. The 2007-2008 season looks promising, as the entire team is expected to return. We also anticipate a gym transformation which will allow us to have home games!

The highest priority of our team is to glorify Jesus Christ in all we do. Teamwork, industriousness, self control, intentness, and poise, among other things, are principles we find in scripture, and therefore strive to make our own. We believe that basketball is the mere venue through which God will use us to glorify Himself, and through which others will see Christ in us. We are resolved to praise the Lord whether we win or lose, but that it is our God given responsibility to strive after victory! GO EAGLES! PRAISE THE LORD!

AICA Eagles win first game of 2007-2008 season!
The Eagles defeated East Gate at our first ever home game on Thursday evening, November 15, by a score of 52-31. The Eagles dominated the boards and demonstrated solid teamwork as they cruised to their first victory of the young season. The next game is at East Gate on Monday, November 27, at 5:00pm. Please come and support your team. Praise the Lord!"
