NDI – A Huge Success

The sixth annual Notre Dame Invitational came to an exciting conclusion this past weekend. After a week of hectic of preparations by students and staff, our tipoff game between Holy Heart (NF) and Medicine Hat Collegiate (AB) started the tournament. After 17 exciting games, and a final featuring a coast to coast matchup (Newfoundland vs. Vancouver), Holy Heart of St. John’s was crowned champions.

A special thanks to our student and staff volunteers that made this weekend such a success. The NDI steering committee would also like to thank our honoured guest, Frank Durante for making the weekend very special.
