JV football improved its record to 4-3 last night with a 24-16 win over Kalkaska. The defense had 4 interceptions, one each by Camryn Stade and Kaiden Schubert and 2 by Dayton Joseph. The earned coin flippers this week were Trevor Johns and Brox Muscott.
Tonight's Homecoming football matchup is also our annual Guardian Game against Kalkaska. All active and retired military personnel are invited to attend for free with military ID. We ask that current and former members of the armed services gather at the south end of the football field at 6:35 p.m. so that we may recognize and thank you for your service prior to the football game. Those who are unable to attend tonight's game can still catch all the action using this NFHS subscription link. Go Vikings!

ATHLETES OF THE WEEK
Lahken Forbes (sideline cheer) and Preston Schenk (JV soccer)
Lahken is a dedicated athlete who soaks up knowledge. She had a slow start to the season due to an injury, but as she regains strength, she proves to be a versatile cheerleader. Lahken is a gentle soul with endless respect for her team and coaches. We can't wait to see what this freshman does in the next three years.
Preston scored a goal and had an assist in the team's 7-0 victory over Clare last week. Preston has played center mid for most of the season and has seen some time on the varsity team as well.
We were able to make a quick video explaining how to access our District/Athletic Calendars. The calendars located on our website and app will be our official calendars moving forward as they will be the most up-to-date.
