Unveiling of the 20 Bulldog state championship signs
Friday, February 14, 2025, home game against Schlagle
*time to be determined and or see signage at the game
This event will feature the unveiling of the 20 Bulldog state championship signs.
We are also in the process of gathering pictures and editing the information for our “Wall of Fame” plaques that will be mounted on the wall behind our home bleachers in the gymnasium. Our “Wall of Fame” will consist of players that went on to further their playing careers at major D-1 colleges and / or played professional basketball.
After the Wall of Fame is complete, we will then look to finalize the hanging of eighteen players and two coaches' names and numbers from the rafters.
More information will be provided, when available.
