The perfect definition of competitive spirit was shown by our 8th grade Boys Basketball Team and Coaches today in the NWCC JH Championship
Down 14 in the 3rd quarter, the Rockets came back to tie it with 8 seconds left in the 4th quarter, 35-35. Elgin hit a buzzer beater shot to win 35-37!
Heartbreaking for the Rockets but a true testimony of the grit of this team!
Congratulations on such a successful season. Rocket Country is proud of all of you!! ❤️🚀🩵
Friday night was FULL of honors and much deserved recognition:
We honored our All-Ohio Fall athletes for their efforts and accomplishments in XC and Football. They were presented with their All-Ohio plaques which will be hung on the Wall of Fame! We are proud of all of you and wish you nothing but continued success!
We also did a shout out to Mr. Will Beard, the voice of the ROCKETS for the past 18 years. He announced in his final regular season basketball game. His first 3pt call was for Kyle Rose and his last was for Jaxon Cook. We will truly miss his voice on the Ridgedale mic and will forever be grateful for his willingness to make the call for 18 years on the basketball court and 26 years at the football stadium. Thank you, Will!!
What a wonderful evening at the "DALE" on Friday. Great wins by both the JV and Varsity Boys Basketball teams over Cory Rawson and recognitions of some great athletes.
We celebrated Senior Night, where the senior male athletes were recognized in bowling wrestling and basketball!
Congratulations to all of the seniors and their families.
