Orange Day
Happy Birthday Sunday to Maddie Vermeulen!
March is our Character Counts month of RESPONSIBILITY!  Do what you are supposed to do.  Persevere: Keep on trying!  Always do your best.  Use self-control.  Be self-disciplined.  Think before you act – consider the consequences. Be accountable for your choices!  The 1st grade will be doing our wall display this month.

ATHLETICS
The boys Blackhawks ended their season with a 55-44 loss to #4-ranked Wolsey-Wessington in the championship game.  Helping were:   Trey--2 reb, 1 ast, 2 st    Garrett—1 reb     trent—9 pts, 8 reb, 5 ast    Logun—12 pts, 1 reb, 1 ast, 1 st, 1 blk    Shaun—9 pts, 5 reb, 3 blk    Noah—6 pts, 1 reb, 2 st     Wyatt—8 pts, 2 reb, 1 ast, 1 st      We shot 16/43 FG for 37%, 1/10 3-pt FG for 10%, and 11/17 FT for 65%.  We were outrebounded 35-20 and had 11 turnovers.   The boys end their season 15-7.   Coach Olson’s comment:   Rebounding and poor shooting were too much to overcome.  These young men again showed great character in battling until the end.   Not having Trevor (injury) and only having Wyatt for 13 minutes (Foul trouble-some questionable) hurt us a lot but these guys kept fighting and only trailed by 4 with 90 seconds to go. It is not a surprise to me that we overcame adversity and still came within a few bounces from winning this game.  This team plays so hard and so unselfish and that is why they have been a huge joy to work with.  Many of our fans and opponents fans have told me this has been a fun, entertaining team to watch—please let the boys know you appreciate their work if you see them.

There will not be JO VB this weekend.
