St. John Neumann High School basketball players, other students and their fans will notice a big difference this year. Their gymnasium has a brand new, beautiful hardwood floor — replacing rubber-coated cement — for classes and games.
What’s remarkable is the efficiency with which the project was accomplished. Girls basketball coach Shannon McFee, an original alumnus of St. John Neumann in 1986, recognized the need, talked it over with friends, and within four months had raised the necessary $150,000 and arranged for contractors to get the job done.
It’s a beauty.
The finished product and the way it was done ought to give the St. John Neumann community pleasure and pride for decades to come.

"St. John Neumann High School basketball players, other students and their fans will notice a big difference this year" - great research! I guess the other athletes who play varsity sports in the gym count as "other students".
