The night was organized by the Class of 2022 Class President Angelina White, and invited military family members from both the Blue Mountain and Tamaqua basketball teams and cheer squads.
During the ceremony, the Blue Mountain Chamber Singers sang, a large flag was unveiled at center court, and the biography of Capt. Jason B. Jones was read. Jones was 2003 graduate of Blue Mountain that died in combat.
Over $3,000 was donated at the event to the Capt. Jason B. Jones Scholarship. Funds were raised through collections, t-shirt sales, and dress down days throughout the district.
Blue Mountain ended up winning the Schuylkill League Division 1 matchup over Tamaqua, 56-50.
