🚨ATTENTION🚨
The OSSAA has enacted a new rule (Suspension from Athletic Activities for Unsporting Behavior Rule) in efforts to improve sportsmanship at HS & MS athletic events.
Any “egregious” unsportsmanlike behavior by Coaches, Players, or Fans two or more times in the same season / same sport will cause the SUSPENSION of the TEAM and/or Individual from the rest of the season.
The OSSAA cited some the following examples of “egregious” unsportsmanlike behavior:
- Fans constantly verbally attacking officials.
- Fans physically attacking officials.
- Fans attacking other fans at athletic events.
- Coaches physically attacking or verbally berating officials.
- Players getting into fights with other players while shaking hands at the end of contests.
- Student sections verbally chanting inappropriate or demeaning chants at individuals, teams, or officials.

Pink Out Game!
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month
During October we raise money to help fund life-changing breast cancer research and support. Before the football game Thursday night vs Fairland we will honor survivors and anyone who would like to remember a loved one. If you would like to participate meet on the track at 6:40 pm. We will do a short ceremony on the football field at 6:45 pm.
We have been asked by community members to not release balloons because of their potential damage to animals when they come back to earth. Please do not bring your own balloons. We will provide pink streamers/ribbons instead of the balloons.
The grade school honor choir will also be singing the national anthem. The weather is going to be great, come enjoy a game with our great community!
All fans please wear pink to show your support!
