A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone for supporting our basketball programs this season! Although both seasons didn't end where we wanted them to, we are extremely humbled as both coaches and players to be supported by such a great community. You helped make lasting memories for our kids, and showed them the meaning of class and school pride.

Everyone - Brody Riggs and I, Wyatt Sinkie, have been collaborating on our project, Mental Health Matters. This all started after we competed in our regional FCCLA meeting and received a gold. We - with the help of Sun Gold Sports - have created shirts to help spread awareness of mental health, an important topic in today's society. We have also decided to host the first annual Mental Health Matters Up-and-Coming All-Star Game! The South Dakota Army National Guard is sponsoring the event and is doing a free-will donation grill out at the event. The event will also include a dunk contest, three-point contest, and half-court contest. Depending on how many players, there will be at least 2 games with 10 players on each team. The teams are being chosen and assigned by the National Guard. Also, Hibbett Sports and more companies are sponsoring the event and offering deals and more! More information will be released as we go, but the date is set - April 2nd with time TBD! Thank you!!!
