TCA Arshag Dickranian School Scores High in the KAHAM Games
Los Angeles, March 30, 2010 – TCA Arshag Dickranian School’s athletes
attained impressive scores in the 2009 – 2010 KAHAM Tournament with their
compelling performance in table tennis, track and field, basketball and
soccer. The participants’ performance was a reflection of their developed
athletic skills, their team spirit and their love for sports. Once again,
the Dickranians proved that their effort and training paid off.
`This year, our students proved that they have come a long way and I am
proud of them.’ said Mr. Rudolph Rameh, the Athletic Director at Arshag
Dickranian School. `I would also like to thank The Athletic Committee for
the moral support they give the athletes besides providing their logistics
and transportation. We couldn’t have done this without them.’
The Dickranians participated in the KAHAM Games for their fourth year.
Their achievement deserves special praise for competing with schools whose
student bodies are more than that of Arshag Dickranian School.
