Ryan Goodkin eyes a shot with 42 seconds left as he is guarded by Wes Rohn. The game’s co-MVPs, Dan Falmlen and Jay Jackson (otherwise known as Luke 12:48 and Micah 6:8) are ready to respond and move in.

After 15 exciting minutes of basketball, all 10 players on the Rubin Arena's hardwood were fighting for the winning bucket, but no! It just wouldn't go, and the game end in a 16-16 tie

Publix participated this year along with CVS and Walgreens.  Everyone played well and played hard. It was a great show and all the players seemed to have a good time.

Scoring honors and dual MVP awards go to Dan Falmlen (CVS) and Jay “Bobby” Jackson (Walgreens) with 8 points each.

For CVS, Jeff Godin had 4 points, Chad Rhode and Ryan Goodkin (Class of 2009) scored 2 each.

For Walgreens, other scorers included Dan Hahm (3), George Phelan (3) and Wes Rohn (Class of 2005) with 2.  

Players voted unanimously before tipoff to name the game after Dr. Wagdy Wahba. Thus, the game’s perpetual championship trophy is now known as the Wahba Trophy.  The new Wahba Trophy will be presented to both teams at the GSOP All-School Assembly in April.

Special thanks go out to all the players and fans; Deborah Bowmar-Jaffe for the pizza and Pepsi; Michael Brown for arranging the game; the Sailfish cheerleaders who cheered the teams on, and Michele Ly for planning and coordinating the entire event.
