Congratulations to our volleyball teammate of the week last week, Mattie Kamery. She was nominated by Tessa Morey for being an encouraging teammate and making her feel like she is part of the family. We had many nominations which is always fun for our team. The winner is chosen at random each week. Congratulations Mattie. We are proud of you!! #TrustTheClimb
Softball Update for Lexington Invite on Saturday 8/19:
Due to the forecasted heat, the start time for the tournament at Lexington on Saturday 8/19 has been moved up an hour. The Highway 6 Trailblazers will play their first game at 8am on Saturday. The previous start time was set for 9am. They are also making a few other adjustments to help their tournament run more quickly.
Golf may be a quiet tradition here at Minden, but we want your support. We have SEVERAL opportunities for you to see our girls with a unique schedule this year. It's tough to keep quiet about this team and this program's history...and future!
