Nashville, TN- USN arrived at St. Cecilia Academy with finals in their rearview, and the break in their windshield, but just one obstacle in the way, St. Cecilia Academy. The Junior Varsity team started the night strong with a big win after trailing at the end of the first quarter. As the Varsity game began, it became clear that this would be one part basketball game, and one part wrestling match. The Tigers fought through very physical play, and came up just short, losing by 2 at the end of the game. Kate Vaughn and Uma Peters led the team in scoring. After a well deserved break, the Tigers ring in the New Year at home vs. Grace Christian Academy.
Rodney Crowell, legendary artist and grandfather to USN student Iris ‘26, will perform on Saturday, April 11, for Music Night, our annual adult-only concert in Durnan Auditorium. Tickets will be available soon for this fundraiser, which supports the arts and athletics at USN.
