*** Tuesday July 28th Hello everyone finally got back in my office and the gym floor looks amazing again!!! The new scoreboard is up along with the shot clocks. New wall padding and updated conference banners are on the way!!! The HS Football Team got back on Saturday after their trip out to Central College in Pella Iowa and I couldn't be more proud of our guys and how they represented us. We practiced against some very good teams from Iowa and Missouri and we did very well!! Great job to everyone!!! Great trip and looking forward to another great year of GIANTS FOOTBALL !!! ***

*** Very Important *** As of today we only have 6 MS football players. If there is anyone else that has not signed up with me yet to play please do so by 5:00 tomorrow night. We have to have 12 -14 players to keep the season going. If we don't have that many we will have to put our MS program on pause for the season. Please let me know by 5:00 tomorrow Coach Lalor jlalor@ah19.org ***

*** Attention due to the terrible air quality and heat we are cancelling football practice for tonight. ***

*** MS / HS Cheer Camp is next week Monday - Friday HS 9:30-11:30 & MS 12:30-2:30. Reach out to MS Coach Krawczyk @ 815-334-7641 or HS Coach Longfield @ 815-347-4568 if you have any questions. ***

*** IMPORTANT: Attention all Middle School Parents that have a student 5th -8th grade that is planning on playing MS Football please send me an email by Friday July 17th confirming that your son or daughter is committed to playing this season. I am very concerned about our participation numbers and if we are not going to have enough to play I need to inform the other schools as soon as possible. We need to have at least 14 total players to field a team. Having a MS program is crucial to our HS programs continued success. Practice will start on Aug. 10th 3:30-5:30, all games are played on Tuesday night's and yes it is possible to play for our MS program and one of the surrounding towns league programs.. Please respond to Coach Lalor by July 17th confirming commitment. jlalor@ah19.org ***
