Congratulations
A huge congratulations to our Varsity Football team and Coach Crockett and Coach Long. Our team is the Division 1 8 Man Football State Champions. They finished the season undefeated with a 13-0 record. This is our second state championship in school history. The only other one was the 1998 girls basketball team. This is a wonderful accomplishment to a great group of students. It was also very impressive to see how many of our parents, siblings, staff, alumni, and community members made the long drive to Marquette to watch the game. There was orange and black everywhere. This is exactly what makes our community great. Proud to be an oriole!
