It is National Girls and Women in Sports Day!! Thank you to all of the women who have paved the way and all those who continue to strive to be the best they can be!
My favorite part of this is the trail official (bottom right). A fist bump and naturally polite applause heading back down the floor. Of course refs understand the importance of these moments. We’re human. Sportsmanship where ever possible. Grow the game. Well done!! @IHSA_IL
Heyworth Varsity & JV were both in action tonight at different sites in their respective @HOIConference Tournaments, which allowed our manager Kaden Esposito to suit up. Coach Yoder & his @FC74falcons squad showed incredible class, leading to a moment Kaden will never forget!

If we know it's not OK, nor helpful, at a middle school band concert, why do we think it's helpful at a youth sports match? Thoughts? Thanks to @OffyHuman for the great video and giving us permission to share
