Orono - It didn't matter how many baskets were being made at a 3-on-3 tournament in Orono Sunday.

The purpose behind the competition was to raise money for Strong Mind, Strong Body.

It's a summer program for the youth that promotes nutrition wellness and participation in athletics.

" Often times the kids are left with no where to go in the Summer due to low income households. To offer a program free of charge for the kids where they're still being able to participate in physical activity and able to learn during the Summer months instead of participating in at risk activities or at risk behaviors," said Program Director, Roosevelt Boone.
