For the first time in a few years, East Three School was bustling with activity early in the Thanksgiving weekend as the Paulou Ittungna Memorial Volleyball tournament returned to the courts. Named for one of East Three School’s finest athletes, the players gave it their all over the two day event. When the dust settled, Team Wes won it for the men and the Notorious D.I.G. took top prize for the women.
