Regional and State Basketball Update
Written by Abby Orrick, Gabby Jones, and Cassidy Holder
- January 24, 2020
During both the Regional and District tournament a series of different sponsors came together to provide the hosting school with what they need. Farm Bureau Bank as well as Sentinel Bank are corporate sponsors for the tournament. Wilson Sports is yet another major sponsor that provides the game day basketball for both the girls and boys basketball teams. At each tournament you will notice an Ad book. In this there are advertisements for several companies that have donated to the hosting school in order to help make these possible. Make sure and support your Screamin’ Eagles during the tournaments to come!

The Hillcrest Screamin’ Eagles dominated the District tournament last week at Maynard High School, putting them in a great place going into regionals.
