Faith and girls basketball

From ESPN:

With nothing for certain, the people work, they dream and they pray. They get up early and go to 7:10 Mass, kneeling in their Wranglers. One morning before the tournament began, the priest looked out over the toughest people he'd ever met, and he read from the Gospel.

"All you see here," he told them, "the day will come when you will not see another stone upon a stone."

"When you die here, 400 people walk you out of that church," says Nazareth native Darryl Birkenfeld.
