Tonight, in honor of our 91 years of excellence, we will wear the original colors of Grant Union High School before WWII, Purple and Gold. This Throwback honors every Grant High School student that have walked the halls of 1400 Grand Ave. from 1932 to Today.

What if I told you that we have a 6’4 WR, that is as fast as the wind 💨, will play the slot and go over the middle as well as take the top off a defense. Currently carries a 3.8 GPA. Because of injury only played 6 games but had 682 rec. yrs,with 5 TD’s. Rank 45th in CA as a WR
After going 0-9 in 2021, we finished the 2022 regular season 7-2 (5-1 in league) and secured ourselves a playoff birth. We are so very proud of our players for their hard work and commitment. The job is not done. Now it time to make a deep playoff run

Who broke his hand roughly two months ago, found out he needed surgery, told them to put a cast on it, won a state championship and had surgery two days later. Surgery went well. He will be back pancaking D-linemen in no time.

Grant Vs. Everybody makes a statement. One that codifies the emotion of what Pacer Nation has felt for decades and expresses it in three simple words. It empowers the community, bucks the haters, and allows the late comers just one more avenue to join the bandwagon.

So everyone is asking and wondering what is being done to the old field at the high school. We’re building a brand new football stadium with an all weather track.
This stadium will be used for high school & Grant Union Jr. Pacers events along with the main stadium.
