It was the best of times, it was the worst of times for the varsity scholastic bowl team as they lost to a great Cumberland team last night but rebounded to defeat Tri-County by a score of 310-100 to push their overall record to 34-14 and 9-1 in the LPC. The JV lost a close contest to Cumberland as well. Leading the Knights in toss-ups was AJ Johnson and Indra Nolan with 7 each. On Saturday, the varsity departs at 5:55 am to Homewood Flossmoor for the IHSSBCA Tournabout. Good Luck Knights!
Today’s lunch menu is: Cheese Pizza
Thank you and have a great day!
