Basketball Game Reminders for Adult Visitors
We have had wonderful fan support during our home basketball games this season. As we pass the midway point in the season, here are a couple quick reminders for those planning on attending home basketball games.
- All spectators should enter the gyms through the Activity Entrance doors on the west side of campus.
- The Activity Entrance doors will be unlocked beginning at 3:10 once the school day has been completed.
Thank you Huskies for all your positive support during our athletic seasons.
Boy Basketball Home Games
Our student section has been packed and so much fun! A few reminders - If your student attends a basketball game, they must stay on campus between the end of school and the start of the basketball game at 3:30. Students should report directly to the gym. Students should stay in the stands during the game, watch the game and cheer positively. Please review these expectations with your student.
Monday, February 13 vs. IT - Celebrity Day
Thursday, February 23 vs. SFT - College Day
Please remember - spirit day costumes must be school appropriate and follow all school rules except hats are allowed if they go with the spirit day. No flags may be worn, no face coverings or face paint.
