On Friday, January 17, over 80 SOMA Hoopsters in red jerseys attended our Girls Youth Night at Columbia High School as the CHS girls defeated Bloomfield 44-40. Our players high fived the starting lineup as they took the court, participated in a halftime shootout, and joined the team for a post game celebration. Thanks to the generosity of our donors and sponsors, SOMA Basketball Boosters proudly presented a donation to the Columbia Girls Basketball Program in recognition of all they do to build a better community through basketball. Way to Go Cougars!
