Jefferson players team up against a player on the other side to gain possession of the ball. Jefferson’s Men’s JV Basketball team faced off against the Falls Church team and ended with a loss by one point. “You’re allowed to grab the ball as long as you don’t reach over someone or reach with both arms around someone. In the picture, Ian is grabbing him[Falls Church player] from the back, that’s illegal,” sophomore Rakesh Pillai said.
