Student Recognition & Congratulations:


Congratulations to all three girls basketball teams last night with great efforts in exciting games with rival Heritage.  Big wins by our JV team and especially our Varsity girls who ended the regular season by beating the Eagles and registering their 10th win!  Senior Elsie Mangum led the way with 15 points, 6 rebounds, and 4 steals including the game winning shot with less than a minute to go and 2 more free throws to seal the win!  Great job ladies and good luck in the playoffs!!!  Way to go LIONS!!
