HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL UPDATE:
Due to a several recent injuries to players on our girls basketball team, the number of players available for JV level games is limited. Because of this the JV girls games both today (Feb. 10th) and on Thursday (Feb. 12th) will be 2 quarters instead of a full game. Both of these girls JV games will be played in the middle school gym. The boys JV games will be full games and will be played in the high school gym. Start times for JV remain unchanged and will start at 4:30pm.

Additionally, the JV girls will NOT play in the Wood River tournament on Saturday February 14th. The boys JV will participate in this tournament as planned.
