2023-2024 Girls Basketball Championships

Congratulations to Encinal Jr. Jets and Lincoln Lions clinching the the DII and DI Championships, respectively. This was a great year for AEF girls basketball. Five middle school teams competed: Academy of Alameda, ACLC/Nea combined, Encinal Jr. Jets, Lincoln, and Wood. All 5 made the playoffs and 3 made the championships. There was great improvement from all teams over the course of the season. In fact, DII champions Encinal came from barely having enough girls for a single team last year, to winning their division this year and planning to add a second team next year!
