More than 700 athletes with and without disabilities from across Northern Virginia took to the hardcourts in Arlington and Fairfax counties on Saturday, Feb. 12, for Special Olympics Virginia’s Potomac Region Basketball Tournament. The tournament featured full court and half court games and, for the second year in Northern Virginia, unified basketball teams from Canterbury Woods Elementary School, Kenmore Middle School (above), Langley High School, Robert Frost Middle School, Robert E. Lee High School, Robinson Secondary School, South County Middle School and Yorktown High School competed as part of Special Olympics Virginia’s Unified Sports program, which pairs students with and without disabilities on the same team.
