WILMINGTON — Both the boys’ and girls’ basketball teams at St. Elizabeth High School are having fine seasons.

The boys entered their game on Feb. 13 with a perfect 16-0 record, while the girls are 15-3 and will play again on Feb. 15 at home. The junior varsity boys are 13-2.

But they played some of their best basketball on Feb. 10, and the results will never show up in the standings.

The St. E Center was the site as the Vikings a skills clinic and games for Special Olympics athletes.

The first half of the three-hour session began with station work and practice, and after a short break, the teams took the floor for a series of games.
