St. John Bosco has resurrected their boys basketball program with 5 freshman and a senior turned out for the team. The Patriots haven’t had a team since the 2015-16 season due to lack of players. With 5 freshmen among the 6 players turned out, the school decided to go with a JV program this year. The lone senior is David Wassmuth who played with the Prairie JV one year but this is his first chance to play as a Patriot as he was in the 8th grade the last time they had a team. The 5 freshmen are Torry Chmelik, Luke Stubbers, Cody Wassmuth, John Uhlenkott and Sheldon Wells. Head coach this season is Josh Lustig with Kim Frei and Justin Wassmuth as assistants. The last time the Patriots had a team Kim Frei was assistant coach to her father Ron Frei. ST.
