After 15 seasons as the head basketball coach at Holy Spirit, Jamie Gillespie will not be returning for his 16th season.

It’s the second title in six years for the Spartans, who beat Rutgers Prep in 2015 during Steve Normane’s first stint as head coach.

Freshman Alexandria Graffius made history on Wednesday night.

The Holy Spirit girls were down 24-6 in the first half against visiting Absegami.
