JAMES CITY – Katie Mausteller was the first basketball player in Williamsburg Christian Academy history to score 1,000 career points.

Next month, the Solders for Faith Ministries and her school will sponsor a basketball event in her honor as WCA hosts the third annual Katie’s Challenge 3-on-3 tournament on Saturday, Aug. 23.

The event is open to men (ages 16 and older) and women (15 & up). There will be a minimum of four teams for each division. Teams are limited to five players per squad and there will be a maximum of 20 teams per division.

Cost is $15 per player and proceeds will benefit the Soldiers for Faith Ministry, which was formed by former WCA boys basketball assistant coach Kelly McAndrew.

Game schedules will be posted at 8:30 a.m. on Aug. 23. Teams will be introduced at 9 a.m. and will be followed by a short ceremony honoring Mausteller. Terry Hill, a former professional basketball coach and author will be the guest speaker and will lead a pre-tournament chapel service.

The tournament will be held from 9:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. and will be followed by an awards ceremony and barbecue from 3:30-5:30 p.m.
