Father Henry Carr was the first high school accepted into the prestigious Ontario Scholastic Basketball Association (OSBA) in 2025. That season, the senior boys' team played in the Toronto District Catholic Athletic Association (TDCAA) and the OSBA, and won the 2016 Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations (OFSAA) Championship. The program ran until COVID-19 hit in the spring of 2020.
In their return to Prep Basketball last season, the Senior Prep Crusaders were very competitive in both the OSBA Trillium Division and the North Pole Hoops (NPH) Division 1 (D1) Scholastic Division. In fact, the team lost a close Championship Final to Bond Academy.
On the heels of that success, the Crusaders have been ranked 9th in the pre-season in all of Canada. With six returning players, three juniors moving up, and several newcomers, Father Henry Carr now boasts a more experienced, bigger, and more talented squad.
This Sunday, in the season opener, the Crusaders defeated Wiggins Elite by a lopsided score of 86–54.
Up next is the OSBA Showcase on September 27, 2025, followed by the home opener against Uchenna Academy on October 2, 2025.
The team has adopted two mottos:
“Sometimes you, sometimes me, ALWAYS US!” — borrowed from Dillon Brooks' Oregon Ducks, and “WE GOT US!”
Please come out to support the team in their attempt to be crowned Prep Champions!
