Our fearless leader
@GouldJaxson
is home and in good spirits. Shoulder surgery this morning to repair a torn labrum. One of the toughest dudes we know to give all he had this season playing through pain and three dislocations.

As the 2023-24 basketball season winds down across the country at many levels we reflect on a group of players, coaches and support staff that took us on a fantastic journey this past season in Warsaw. Proud of their success but more impressed with the quality of their spirit. โ๏ธ
Congratulations to rising junior
@LukeBricker3
for his opportunity at the
@IBCA_Coaches
Top 100 today. Luke is coming off a sophomore season where he averaged 8 ppg and shot 45% from three.
Only 18 days until hoops season returns in Indiana. No greater time in the Hoosier state than โน๐ผ season. Gyms full as people return to the smell of popcorn and the sound of the school band playing. Looking forward to a fantastic winter sports season ahead.
So very proud of how far
@LukeYeager_24
has come as a player, teammate and a young man. He lives out his character every day and impacts our culture in the ways we value. Congratulations to Luke and the Olivet Naz program.

July was good to us as a whole - now itโs up to our individual pieces to go back to work in the areas they need to see growth....November is coming! โ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธโ๏ธ
โA good swordsman is more important than a good sword.โ
The preparation is over, the boys are ready and now the day has arrived. Tigers look to continue their unbeaten ways in NLC play as the Northridge Raiders visit the Tiger Den tonight at 7:45.
Another outstanding season for the
@WCHS_LadyTigers
basketball team. Congrats to Coach Krebs, his staff and his players for representing
@WCS_District
with pride and class. โMany attend but few understand.โ
Putting yourself in a position to be challenged, learn and grow is the only way to go about life. To be your best you have to be measured by the best. We are doing that!
