At last night's Regional Championship game, the IESA handed out sportsmanship pins to an individual from each team. Oliver Dean was the recipient from Sullivan! He represented our school with an outstanding work ethic and sportsmanship at the game!

Here is the criteria for the award:

The IESA Sportsmanship Pin is awarded throughout the state series to one member from each team in recognition of exemplary sportsmanship. Recipients of this honor consistently display a positive attitude toward teammates, opponents, and officials. They show a commitment to giving their best effort in the game and always maintain respectful conduct towards those around them. Additionally, they exhibit positive body language that uplifts and inspires both teammates and peers. This recognition celebrates athletes who embody the values of sportsmanship and enhance the competitive spirit of the game.

Way to represent Sullivan, Oliver! #OneTribe

Our 7th grade team battled hard but fell to a very good Vandalia team in the Regional Championship this evening.

Their work ethic and commitment were on display all year. The future is bright, and we look forward to watching them continue their journey in 8th grade. We are so proud of you! Go Redskins! #OneTribe
