The Mercer girls and boys played two games each, and split their contests, over the 2016 edition of High School Holiday Hoops in Trenton. The #3 ranked (MBCA Class 1) Lady Cardinals fell to Class 5 St. Joseph Central, but rebounded for a victory against Class 3 Summit Christian Academy, while the Cardinal boys, just outside the Top 10, rallied from a one-point halftime deficit to defeat Rock Port, but lost to a strong team from Santa Fe.
The Cardinals opened 2017 with games against Southwest Livingston and Newtown-Harris, before playing in the South Harrison Tournament from January 9th to the 14th.
