School Recognitions for February
We have just concluded all of our Winter Sports seasons. We
congratulate all our teams, coaches and student-athletes for
competing at the highest level with Respect-Honor-Strength!
There were many recognitions and I am sure I do not have them
all but here are some of the highlights.
Girls Basketball competed hard and finished second in the
Regional Finals at Carson. We look forward to great things
from them next year.
Boys Basketball fell short at Galena in the first round of the
Regional Tournament. The boys fought hard and with
their strong Freshmen and JV teams, the future looks great for
them also.
Rifle Team finished 6th in State this year-great job by
them.
Wrestling had an outstanding season with multiple competitors in
the Regional and State tournament. We saw
sophomore Andrew Berreyesa take home a State Title this year.
Way to go Andrew!
I am pleased to announce that Reno High School is one of two
winners for the Winter Snow Down Video Contest! As such, our school
will receive a $1,000 check. Here is the link for YouTube:
