Fontbonne makes a playoff run to win the B-Q Championship
Fontbonne 39 St. Joseph 38
The old saying “It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish” aptly applied to the Fontbonne Varsity Basketball Team this season as the 2020 Bonnies captured the Brooklyn-Queens Division A Championship on March 8 at Xaverian High School.
The Bonnies struggled this season with a sub .500 regular season record after being given a more competitive regional intersectional schedule. However, after beating rival St. Edmund Prep 30-26 in this year’s semi-final playoff round, the Bonnies gained a second wind to advance to the championship game to play the St. Joseph Cougars who finished as the Division A regular season winners.
