USN Rallies Hard but Falls Short to Valor
After starting off a bit rusty in the first half, our USN Tigers came back with a vengeance in second, determined to play to their full potential. And that, they did. Alima Kassim blew past her defenders, scoring 9 points in the second half alone. Ona Moore's defense was intimidating, to say the least, and helped USN get some much needed steals and fast breaks. Kate Vaughn led the team at the point guard position, breaking down Valor's press and finding her open teammates. Betsy Bowles, Clara Smail, and Ainsley Moore provided some amazing defense, as Josie Whelan, Meggie Hayes and Chloe Cmelak stood their ground in the post positions against some extremely tall Valor players. And, thanks to Annie Cox, USN maintained their intensity until the final buzzer sounded. Although USN fell short in points, they never fell short of their drive to win and improve. This team never gives up, which makes them tough competition during this mid-season.

Back-to-school Popsicle Party cancelled
Mother Nature is not cooperating for our annual Popsicle Party. Depending on which weather app you use, actual and feels-like temperatures are 98 to 101 and higher. Under these conditions, we would limit student activities, so, in the interest of everyone's health and well-being, we are going to cancell our gathering at the River Campus. There is just not enough shade and certainly no air conditioning to bring relief to hundreds of USN families. Thank you for understanding. We look forward to seeing you in a few days for the start of our new school year.Read More
