Losing to YCIS with a 25 point margin and watching their opponents wrap each other in triumphant hugs was not how SASPD’s junior varsity boys basketball team intended their day to start at SISAC. “Don’t talk about it,” said Justin Kuan ’22.

With volleyball heading to Concordia, baseball heading to Puxi, and tennis heading to Shanghai Racquet Club for a friendly day of competition against our neighbors across the river, it looked to be an eventful day.
