During the week of Feb. 29 and March 3 the March Madness Basketball tournament was held with teams participating from around the region.  

For the first time ever, Winchester had a fifth grade girls' team participate in the event and they played against much more experienced traveling teams. 

They went 1-2 in the tournament.

These girls participated in the  Winchester Basketball Association town league for 5th grade girls and were selected by their peers to be on the March Madness team.
