Lots of happenings at the high school the last few weeks, and lots of things on the horizon as we wrap up February!
- The One-Act Play cast and crew had a tremendous showing at the state tournament last Friday. The team had an outstanding season! Head coach Lyn Vavreck worked amazingly well with this year's high-powered cast. Can't wait for the next theatre production at SPHS!
- Brodie Raymond scored his 1,000th point in a basketball game against Blue Earth a couple weeks ago. For those non-basketball folks, this is rare occasion and an accomplishment only reached by those who possess great talent and dedication to the game. Congrats Brodie!
- Beau Bachman and Brittani Lamb were named the Saint Peter High School AAA (Arts, Academic and Athletic) award winners. Bachman was also chosen as the Sub-Section AAA winner!! Both Bachman and Lamb are unbelievably well-rounded seniors, participating in numerous and diverse school-related activities for the past four years.
- The Mock Trial team is one bang of the gavel away from the state tournament. With the help of local legal counsel and Nicollet County Judge Allison Kreibehl, this year's team continues to score big wins against regional competitors. Next up is Sleepy Eye, and a win punches their ticket to the state tourney.
- The boys and girls basketball teams continue to position themselves for a run at the South Central Conference titles. Did you know that the boys team went from the holiday tournament to February 16 without losing a game, and that the girls are playing some of their best basketball of the season?
- Congratulations to the girls' hockey team for winning the South Central Conference title. The girls had a number of bigwins this season, including a huge one against New Ulm.
- The FIRST Robotics team is putting the finishing touches on the SPHS robot before it is shipped to the University of Minnesota later this month. With the state competition in April, this year's team has high expectations for competing with the top teams in the state. This year's challenge is "Breakaway". A demo can be found by following the FIRST Robotics links on our school's website (www.stpeterschools.org).
As you can see, there are a lot of great things happening in the co-curricular program at SPHS!! Spread the word!
What about the two wrestlers that went to the State Tournament. Should they not get recognition.
