The STL Alumni Basketball Lions, as well as family and friends of Jonathan Gayle, are honouring his memory by hosting a charity fundraiser basketball game. Jonathan was an outstanding student-athlete and class valedictorian at STL. He starred on the Lions Basketball and Soccer teams. He was a respected leader on and off the court and pitch. In addition to being a Sports Broadcaster for TSN, Jonathan was involved in Youth Sports as a Coach and felt that all children should have a chance to play their favorite sport.
