To prepare for the season we have posted preseason workouts to the right under team info. this will help prepare you for what is in store for tryouts. Once we receive a roster from the athletic department it will be posted here. Parents please check you emails in regards to how to register your athletes on Genesis, if you've done a fall or winter sport you will need to turn in the 90 day update. If you haven't done a sport so far this year you will need to get a physical, if you're a junior or freshman you will need the physical as well as an impact test. All of these items are in addition to registering in Genesis; all paperwork is posted to the right. Also, keep an eye out as we will have a preseason meeting via zoom soon.
