It was a night to celebrate all the great things about Toronto Lords Basketball at its annual awards banquet at the Forth on Danforth. One of the things that separates Toronto Lords from all the other basketball programs in the province is its commitment to excellence both on and off the court, a large part of which is its dedication to the classroom. We continue to have 100% of our graduates go on to post-secondary school after graduation, and we ensure each and every participant leaves with a scholarship to continue their academic growth.
On such an amazing night, it is only right to honour those participants who went above and beyond in their basketball and academic pursuits and were awarded with additional scholarship money on top of their yearly amount.
