I’m sure you’ve all been wondering how the kickoff games went, and I am here to give the results.

Urbana came in first place, winning every one of the nine rounds they participated, with Varsity Centennial Champaign coming in a close second, winning eight rounds and losing only to Urbana in the final round.

Our Varsity Team reached #14, with two of our varsity players went into the top twenty out of ninety-seven, with them being Odin Cunningham at #20 and me at #18. Gracelyn Arven came in at #58, Jack Hawkins came in at #80, and Zoey Rinesmith came in at #93. Alyssa McCleary of Varsity Centennial Champaign came in at #1.

The Junior Varsity Team had a rough day, leaving with a 0-8 win streak. Cheyenne Newlin came in at #62, Brylee Tingley came in at #77, and Wyatt Holmes came in at #79.
