Montgomery Catholic Preparatory School’s French Club sponsored their bi-annual Petanque Tournament. This three-day event drew multiple teams, including several faculty members, in several close matches. Spring 2011 champions were Gerald Davis and Jack Starr who narrowly defeated Sterling Hebert and Alex Castanza, who were the runners-up. Petanque, a game closely resembling the Italian game of Bocce, is played in southern France with almost as much intensity as was evidenced in Montgomery Catholic’s high school courtyard! Montgomery Catholic also held a intra-school competition with students from Montgomery Academy. Pictured: Montgomery Catholic Preparatory School Petanque champions Gerald Davis and Jack Starr.
