What a busy Saturday for our JH/HSXC and
HSVB team today. XC did great at the AV Invitational, with two runners medaling. Congratulations to Avery Hahs and Parker Schoen. Avery finished 3rd overall and Parker finished 2nd in Class 1. Great race from everyone, especially in this heat.
HSVB went 5-1 on the weekend in the Dig For Life TRN getting beat in the quarterfinal game by Bell City. Great tournament and good job girls.
Congratulations to Kenadie Ward for reaching 1000 career assists this weekend.

Hello BlueJay Fans, players, and community. I have some very exciting news to share with you regarding BlueJay Gear. I have teamed up with BSN and have put together some team sports stores for you to get all the BlueJay gear you want. The links below have sport specific team gear on them as well as a BlueJay Gear store. The stores will stay open and be available until 8/29/25 with the exception of the BlueJay Store, that one stays open until 9/2/25. Orders will ship within 1-2 days after purchase vs when the store closes like in years past. This is great news because you should have everything you need to be BlueJay ready before the first games/meets. They can ship directly to your house after you order and pay online.
Please let me know if you have any questions or need anything else when ordering.
