Knights of Columbus councils from Fort Madison and Houghton sponsored a free throw championship for youths ages 9-14 earlier this month at Holy Trinity Catholic Elementary in West Point.
In the boys’ competition, Logan Henrich won the 13-year-old division, Jonah Moeller won the 12-year-old division, Brady Moeller won the 10-year-old division and Reece Holtkamp won the 9-year-old division. In the girls’ competition, Mylan Braden won the 12-year-old division, Kenna Gehling won the 11-year-old division, and Brynn Henrich won the 9-year-old division.
Each contestant was allowed 15 free throw attempts in the contest. Each division winner received a Knights of Columbus basketball and advanced to the district competition. The state competition will take place in March.
