High school Boys Basketball
The PVS high school team traveled to Arkansas for their  first official  basketball game of the season . Even though they didn't win,many players on the team say that the trip really bonded the team together. Between the long bus rides and time on and off the court, a player on the team states that ,” the experience helped build chemistry you cant always get in practice”. May Allah allow this growth to carry them through this season. 
Middle School Girls Basketball 
The PVS community is buzzing with excitement over the grit of our middle school girls' basketball teams.What makes this team even more special is how their participation acts as a powerful form of dawah presenting muslim girls as     powerful athletes. A sixth grade athlete on the team, Bintah Diatta, states that” I love wearing my hijab on the court and off the court regardless of what people say" .This quote truly highlights how the hijab is valued at PVS.
