ALUMNI BASKETBALL LEAGUE
The Alumni Basketball League began in the summer of 1981, when 50 alumni composing six teams began playing games of shirts and skins basketball in the former Lower School gym. The MUS ABL was founded by cousins and former Owl basketball players Tommy Peters '73 and Judd Peters '81. The ABL plays in the summer and has two divisions. The "B League" is for players who participated in athletics in high school or college and want to continue playing in a more competitive environment. The "C League" is best described as the league for the person whose love and appreciation for the game outweighs his abilities on the court. For more information on the ABL, contact the commissioner.
