Good morning, Islanders!
Here is the outlook for this week's Islanders practices and games.
First, congratulations to our MS Volleyball teams for a terrific season full of lots of great volleyball and huge improvements! We can't wait to see what you'll do now on the basketball court...practices start tomorrow!
Next, you'll see that the JV Football game on Wednesday against Superior Central has been cancelled due to injuries and low numbers. We will reassess if we are able to get in anymore JV games as the week progresses. JV Football boys are still, of course, expected to attend practices as part of the Varsity program.
Lastly, you football families will see that we are still scheduled to make the trip to Elcho, Wisconsin, for a game on the 12th. We are working to reserve a charter bus for our boys to get to and from Wisconsin. As more information becomes available, we'll pass it along.
