Keeping Score: Part 4
“I think we showed the other schools what diversity and integration does: it brings teams who make it to the finals undefeated.”
The series ends with a final test for the Jaguars at the city championship. After the last point has been scored, members of the team try to assess their success. And what about the success of the merger? Students and coaches look at how the integration played out across John Jay’s athletics program, and ask: was it all worth it?
