About:
“Monday night’s girls basketball game between Springville and Eden on the Raiders’ home court was more than a battle for first place in ECIC IV girls basketball. The occasion was bigger than that.
The Raiders dedicated the game in the memory of Eden Schools counselor Amy Banks, who died unexpectedly on Dec. 27 at age 47. Her husband, Ron, and three sons, Troy, Brody and Cael, were at the game.
Eden director of athletics Marisa Fallacaro Dougherty led a brief ceremony before the game that paid tribute to Mrs. Banks.
Students and other spectators made it a “white-out” game and donations of more than $1,500 were collected at the gate to help fund a scholarship for seniors in Mrs. Banks’ name.”
