In this week’s photo gallery, holiday joy fills Friendly Temple Church as children proudly show off new toys during the annual Toy Drive. On the court, Cardinal Ritter College Prep celebrates a hard-fought win over Nicolet at the Midwest Showdown Shootout, led by junior guard Aiden Stevenson’s 20-point performance, while longtime coaches Randy Carter, Richard “Bird” Hamilton, and Malcolm Hill are recognized for their enduring impact on the game. Social scenes round out the gallery with Quentin and Cassandra at the AKAs End of the Year Jam, Shaki and Dallas at The Legal Solution Group’s Black Out Gala, and festive moments from the Merry Little Holiday party.
