The Seward County Saints men’s basketball team took part in the Play a Saint event at the Chili Cookoff Sept. 19 at Blue Bonnet Park. The team did the Play a Saint for fun and to make a public appearance. “It’s a good thing for the community, helping with kids in the community,” Saints forward Jon Tassin said. “We were just having good times with the kids who come to our games.” The basketball team also got to go around and taste the different kinds of chili.
