CUPERTINO CLASSIC
The ninth chapter of the Cupertino Classic will unfold on Wednesday December 27, at Bishop Dwenger High School in Fort Wayne. The annual basketball game pitting our diocesan priests against seminarians is named after St. Joseph of Cupertino, a 17th century Franciscan friar who was known to levitate during prayer.
The evening will begin with Mass in the chapel at Bishop Dwenger at 3:45 PM, followed by Eucharistic Adoration until 6 PM. The tipoff for the game will be at 6:30 PM.
The event is free and open to the public. Attendees can give a free will offering to the seminarian education fund as well as purchase concessions and event T-shirts.
