HS Basketball Athletes of the Week
JV - Matthew Dowell - Matt always works hard on the court and looks to score for himself, but is willing to make an extra pass to get the team a good look. Keep it up Matt.
Varsity - Tayton Coulter - Tayton is a tremendous leader on the court, he is aggressive at both ends of the court and puts his teammates in situations to be successful. We are excited to have him back for the second half of the season.


HS Wrestling Athlete of the Week: Caleb Mobley, he has shown a lot of improvement this season and is becoming a leader on our team.
