The FT(Knights Of Columbus), NOT "The OC"(Historical Look)

K of C 5103 FT XVIII
Monsignor Sherman Council Knights of Columbus #5103 in East Glendale, Queens, has run a Free Throw Basketball Contest since MCMXCII(1992) in the Forest Hills & Glendale Areas of Queens, with contests in Ozone Park, Middle Village, Elmhurst & a special contest operation in Cypress Hills, in Brooklyn. The NYPD Precincts of Occurrnce for the contests are as follows:

102 Precinct Area was home to FT IX and FT X, both at St. Mary Gate Of Heaven;
The Joint Venture with Long Island Council 197 at Blessed Sacrament Hall on Pine Street, from whence 5103's NY State Champion, Keandra Leong came from, occured in the confines of the 75 Precinct. Both Past Grand Knights of 5103, Vin Femenella and Mike Leggett, hail from that neighborhood(FT XIII).
112 Precinct Area has been hosted at PS 101Q in Forest Hills Gardens, for FT's VI, XIV, XV, XVI, XVII, and now XVIII. Our Lady Of Mercy Recreation has played host at PS 101Q over these 6 Hostings.
Where Monsignor Sherman Council had a finalist in The NY State Council Competition, these are the contests these finalists came from:
Teresa Mc Cloud(10 Girls), FT IV at Resurrection Ascension (104 Precint Area) on Saturday, 01/07/1995. Her Home Parish was Holy Child Jesus at the time in 102 Precinct Area;
Keandra Leong(11 Girls), FT XIII, at Blessed Sacrament Hall on Pine Street in Cypress Hills, in the confines of the 75 Precinct in Northeastern Brooklyn. Her home parish is Our Lady Of Mercy-Forest Hills, Queens in 112 Precinct Confines(NY State Championship Winner);
A 14 Year Old from St. Margaret's Middle Village in High School, living in 104 Precinct confines, went to NY State Finals from FT XVII(PS 101Q);

Only Queens County Champion from 5103 ever to win the Queens County Championship, while residing in another county is Adele Reyes as 13 Girls Champion in 1998. She resided in Cypress Hills in the confines of the 75 Precinct. Adele is the ONLY 5103 Queens County Champion ever to win a Queens County Championship in her home parish facility when she won the QC Championship at Monsignor Mulz Hall, the Parish Gymnasium of St. Thomas Apostle in Woodhaven on Monday, 03/02/1998.

The 1994 12 Girls Queens County Champion, Jamie Jones, has an Aunt who won the Downstate Championship in 1980, namely Karen Fleming. Karen's Sister is Jamie's Mom. Karen represented St. Sylvester Council 6194 while Jamie represented 5103. Past Grand Knight of 5103, Michael Leggett chaired both Free Throw Contests in both Brooklyn and Queens. This is the ONLY case where there was two generations of the same family who held Championship Status for the same Contest Chairman in two different jurisdictions.
