White and Maroon end their season a good note. They might not have won every game but they had an amazing season and tried their best. However, the maroon ninth grade boys ended their season with a defeat against Bishop McCort on Feb. 20. The final score was 44 to 36. The boys played a very good game and avoided injuries. Also, many of their fellow peers came out to support the team. The ninth grade community had a tailgate after school for students to come and make posters for the team.
“We had an amazing season, and I can’t wait until next year to come around!” Daiquian Watson said.
