Read moreCoach Lindsey Fathke had these remarks on the boys' season. "The 5th, 6th, and Junior High Boys basketball season wrapped up with their home tournament on February 26th. The boys started their season at the beginning of January and have been working hard throughout the season. Their dedication is appreciated as most often they have early morning practices. They show up and work hard! Their progress was fun to see in practice during drills and then to see their skills transfer over to games. Even though there aren't any end of the year awards for 5/6/JH basketball, their season ends with all twenty-one of the athletes making gains and improving throughout the season. Looking forward to what next year will bring!"
