LEHIGH VALLEY WEATHER

Via Super Saturday games set for this coming weekend

The 44th Annual Via All-Star Basketball Classic is slated for Saturday, March 30, at Northampton Community College.

The event features four games involving all-star senior players from all parts of the Lehigh Valley.

The Via All-Star Classic raises funds to support Via of the Lehigh Valley’s services for children and adults with disabilities, showcases the basketball talents of area student athletes, and educates attendees about Via and the need for community support through financial, partnership and advocacy support.

The event included a Hall of Fame Clinic on March 17 and the Via All-Star Banquet on Wednesday, March 27, at Sands event Center.

For more information about the clinic, banquet or clinics for athletes with special needs that run November through March, go to www.vianet.org.

This year’s Super Saturday games will begin at 10:30 a.m. with North vs. South girls, followed by the North vs. South boys at noon. The Special Olympics shoots out is slated for 1:30 p.m. before West vs. East girls (2 p.m.) and boys (3:30 p.m.) cap the event.
