Their coach, Damon Higgins, was voted Region 1 Coach of the Year. When asked about the recognition Coach Higgins said, “This is, in my opinion, a team honor. Without our Lady Borderites there is no Coach of the Year!”
These competitors will participate in the Regional Tournaments tomorrow. The boys will wrestle in Hoquiam and the girls in Sedro Woolley. We are so proud of what they have accomplished so far and wish them the best of luck tomorrow!
Music:
High school students from both band and choir recently represented us all at the San Juan Music Educators Association’s Solo and Ensemble Contest. You can read more about their achievements in articles that were posted on our website last week.
Basketball:
Our Lady Borderite hoopsters finished up their season this week, and we are incredibly proud of their hard work and dedication this season and of the many victories they achieved.
