Due to the construction in Gym A, we are going to play our first three boys basketball games in Gym C. These game dates are 12/4, 12/12, and 12/20. We will have to modify the attendance during these games due to only have one side of bleachers in Gym C. Below is the modifications for these three games:
- Any person that purchased an Athletic Pass is allowed in Gym C
-Immediate family member of the players for both home and away spectators
-No students are allowed unless they have an Athletic Pass or are part of the family of a player.

The Freshmen team opened their season with a 47-34 win over Parkway Central in the opening game of the Linneman Tip Off Classic at Parkway West Tuesday night. Zach Hinds led South in scoring with 17 points.
In the second game of the evening, the varsity fell behind early and lost 58-27 to a veteran Colts team. Oliver Kokal led all scorers with 17.
The final game of the night saw an aggressive JV team come from behind to win 50-45, they forced many turnovers and scored in transition! Isaiah Scott led the JV in scoring with 13 points.
All three levels will play at Parkway North next Tuesday.

The walls have been painted, the bleachers are back in place, the floor has been laid and they have begun to paint the floor! We are hoping to back in Gym A at the beginning of 2024.
