It was back on Saturday December 13 when both the girls and boys basketball teams held a Free Throw-A-Thon.

The Roanoke Rapids boys and Girls basketball teams would like to say thank you for all of those individuals, companies and organizations that donated money for their Free Throw-A-Thon. On December 13th each member of the basketball program came in and shot 500 free throw and as a group made over 8,000 good free throws. They can not say thank you enough for the support from the community. They would also like to give a special thank you to James Jones Jr., El Tenampa, Clear Water Pools, DLM Ventures Roanoke Rapids, David Pratt, Megan Kidd, Amy Acree and David Dean.
