Putnam Science Academy, the reigning national prep champion, will join host St. Thomas More on Tuesday, Jan. 31, to take part in a special exhibition basketball doubleheader.

The Chancellors will play NBA Africia at 4 p.m., followed by a game between Putnam Science and NBA Global at 6 p.m.

Fans will be asked to pay a $10 donation at the door with all proceeds going to the Tom Konchalski Foundation. The foundation provides need-based scholarships and financial assistance to student-athletes throughout the New York City area and beyond.

Konchalski, who died in 2021 after a long battle with prostrate cancer, was co-founder of the Five-Star basketball camp, author of the High School Basketball Insider Report, and a legendary figure on the high school and prep school level. He was recently nominated to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame as a contributor.

“Tom is credited with helping countless young men attain their dreams of playing intercollegiate basketball,” St. Thomas More Jere Quinn said. “He was a great friend to STM athletics.”
