Important Game Note for January 16!
The Simms bus had some issues causing their team to run late. As a result, the first JV boys game will not start until approximately 4:40pm. We will then roll forward with games times. Thus, the varsity girls will likely begin around 6:10pm and the varsity boys contest will likely start around 7:40pm.
