We have earned another spot to compete in the 2A playoffs and will begin our playoff run on the 11th or 12th of February depending on the seeding. These girls have been doing amazing on and off the basketball court. Thank you for your support, Coach Montgomery

Last night, 2-3-21, was a great night for our young team. Personal records were set in nearly every lift. Our team was led by Herschel Conway with a tight 2nd place finish, as well as Jeremiah Teague with a 3rd place in his weight class. Richard Rivera-Espinoza, Deven Green, and Andrew Vasquez all finished 5th in their weight classes. Our kids keep getting better and it’s going to really pay off at the regional meet. Best, Coach Ethan Watson
