Katie Matrise of St. Joseph Catholic Academy High School has been named to the Wisconsin Basketball Coaches Association All Star Team. Matrise will be a member of the South Team for Division 4.  It is an honor to be named a participant in the WBCA All-Star games.

This event showcases seniors of each division who possess great talent and tremendous character.  The WBCA All-Star games started back in 1978 and each year the purpose of these games is to raise funds to help fight against childhood cancer.  Since 1978, the WBCA has donated over $2.8 Million to the MACC Fund (Midwest Athletes Against Childhood Cancer) in the effort to combat childhood cancer.  When the games started, the success rate of saving a child with cancer was down near 10%.  Now, with the help of the WBCA All-Star games and MANY others, the success rate of saving a child is up to around 80%!!!  Camp Waubeek in Wisconsin Dells will also benefit from the fundraising effort the athletes will be doing.  Camp Waubeek is an Easterseals camp which benefits campers of all ages with disabilities.

The girls’ WBCA All Star Games will be played at Justagame Fieldhouse in Wisconsin Dells on Friday, June 19th 2020 at the following times:
