Lon Morris College played host to National Junior College Athletic Association Regional Men and Women’s Basketball Tournament from March 9 – 12, and the event was brought to the resident Jacksonville by none other than RE/MAX Masters.

Eight men’s teams and six women’s teams from across the region converged on campus to determine who would advance to the National Championship to be held in Kansas. It was a proud day for the home team, as the men’s team from Lon Morris College took the top spot and will be heading to the Midwest later this month.

RE/MAX Masters made their presence known with the seven-story tall RE/MAX® hot air balloon, a full page ad in the tournament program, and RE/MAX signage visible throughout the campus.

 “Sponsoring this event is not just a benefit for our office, but for all RE/MAX offices in the region” says RE/MAX Masters Broker/Owner Phil Shinalt. “I have a special place in his heart for Lon Morris College where his late Grandmother worked for many years and even had a new multi-million dollar building named after her on the campus. We always welcome the chance to support Lon Morris College. This event was a real winner for them and for RE/MAX.”
