Sports
1. Congrats to our Jr girls volleyball team who brought home yet another win against Paris High School last night. Overall the girls played a great game, but it was their serving streaks and determination that really took us over the edge. Shout outs go to Mikayla and Addison on their amazing serving skills as well as Coralyn and Avery for defending the ball every chance they got.
2. The girls hockey team put themselves back in the win column with a 3-0 win over SJC on Wednesday. Goals were scored by Bri Spence, Carling Ruddell and Madi Schlosser. Kayli Sault earned her first regular season shut out as a Lion. Good job girls.
3. After a tough loss to BCI on Tuesday, the senior boys basketball team bounced back to take a 34-point win over Paris last night. Andrew took home 25 points and Zagham 15. Gabe, Carter and Ryan played tough defense. Come out and support our lions on Monday at SJC and at home on Tuesday against NPC. Let’s go boys!
