Pioneers Down the Titans 48-20

         In the first game of the 2018 Tri-County League Basketball season, the Wichita West I-Hall Pioneers defeated the Wichita South Titans with a final score of 48 to 20.

         The West High athletes were excited to get to play in front of their home crowd today.    Students crowded into the bleachers cheering and hollering for the Pioneers as they cruised to a victory.  Some even brought signs to wave.

         The league is made up of student athletes with special needs from five Wichita high schools and other high schools in the metro area.

Sitting the bench, waiting for your turn to play in an exciting game can be hard!

But it's always important to listen for that call to join the fun!

Taking breaks to rest during a stressful game is important, too.
