INDIANAPOLIS – The Franklin County High School boys basketball team had the opportunity to practice at an NBA arena this week.

The Wildcats enjoyed an amazing team bonding experience with a practice at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in downtown Indianapolis.

The team spent the afternoon practicing at the home of the Indiana Pacers before taking in the Pacers game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Franklin County picked up their first win of the season last week against Greensburg (42-39).

Next up for the Wildcats is the Switzerland County Tournament on December 29 and 30. The Wildcats will play Switzerland County in the first round.
