ANNOUNCEMENTS/TODAY'S EVENTS

It's Friday!  Let's finish strong and make it a great Friday by celebrating the small wins that will lead to bigger victories, EAGLE NATION!!!!!!  It is not looking very Springy out there today as there is snow on the ground and still falling.  We had some action on the diamond and track last night.  Check out the highlights and results.  The weather is not looking good for the weekend as they are calling for cold and rain, but it will be 101 degrees in Phoenix today.  The Masters kicked off yesterday with some exciting play.  Please keep checking the schedule below for changes to athletic events, as Mother Nature is wreaking havoc this spring.  The Spring sports season goes fast, so get out to see some athletic events before it is too late. The booster club meeting has been rescheduled to Wednesday the 16th. 

Team Sports pictures will be on April 23rd.  Envelopes were handed out to athletes yesterday.

Remember, keep it classy, Eagle Nation!

ATHLETES OF THE WEEK

Bodie Cancio

Bodie is a welcome addition to the Modified Track and Field team.  He never complains, always carries items without being asked, and generally helps.  Bodie is also a fantastic teammate as he cheers for team members and continues to encourage others after finishing his workout.  He also makes positive connections between his sport and things he has learned in ELA classes, as his current reading essay is about the importance of winning versus enjoying the sport for your own goals.  Way to Go, Bodie.
