Adrian High School seniors Mikayla Jeffers, Mitchell Lonneman, and Jacob Stamer played in the games, which offer assistance (financially or otherwise) to children in the West Central Minnesota area who face substantial medical expenses incurred as a result of a serious accident or illness. This year’s event honored Molly Jo Einck, daughter of Mike & Melissa Einck. Molly is recuperating at home following heart surgery in Ann Arbor, MI. Those at the game supporting the Einck Family were Jerome & Mary Weidert, Jim & Kris Weidert, Nina & Olivia Weidert, Dave & Deb Lutmer, Brianne & Trystan Einck, and Burdell & Tammy Bents. Molly’s mom, Melissa, and sister Mari attended the game while Daddy Mike stayed home with baby Molly. The Jeffers, Lonneman, and Stamer families were present as well. It was a very fun evening with lots of good entertainment, including slam-dunk and ball-handling professionals, an acrobatic team from Fargo-Moorhead, and mascots from various teams.
