Attention Hoops Fans: We had 3 games last night. Our A teams traveled to Rock Island to take on the Washington Warriors. Both our 7A and 8A teams took command from the opening tip racing out to fast starts and finishing with BIG wins. Our 8Bs hit the road as well to QC Christian where we battled tough, a tight, defensive game but it was the Eagles who were able to soar to victory. Tonight, our 7B and 8B teams play here at home. Go Lady Leafs!
Last night, the wrestling team traveled to Wilson to take on the Wildcats. The Leafs came out strong and never looked back, earning a decisive 56–27 victory. The Leafs picked up several quick pins and kept the pressure on all night, never allowing the Wildcats to close the gap. Great job and good luck tonight at United.
Student Council. There will be no Student Council committee meetings before school on Monday, January 26.
