COACH’S COMMENTS
“… Was great to get a big district win at home on Friday night. Probably one of the best games we have played this season both offensively and defensively. Although, it’s hard to believe it is already February, it was great to honor our seniors against Lewis county on Saturday. Kasen Staniford, Keaden Ellis, and Wyatt Branham have been great leaders in this program. I am so thankful that I was blessed to be their coach. Our program truly benefited from those 3 young men.”
“… Got a busy week this week as we play Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Looking forward to a couple of good practices and then suiting up again toward the end of the week!”

CHEER COACH’S COMMENTS
“… This group of Seniors are some of the best young adults around. I’ve been with most of them since 6th grade year. They’re some of the sweetest, most fun, caring group that I’ve ever been around. They have a wonderful relationship in and out of cheer. I’m so proud of the year they’ve had and will continue to have. I am very grateful to get to be a part of their journey for so long.”
“… We will be going to UCA Nationals next week to compete in the biggest competition of the year. We perform on Saturday evening Feb 8th in prelims. We would like to ask for prayers for traveling and good health.”
“…Also, we’d like to thank the community sponsors for making all of this possible for us. They are amazing and without them we could not do what we do. We are very grateful for the constant support!”
