We have a busy week in Athletics with Senior Nights and 2 big EBC matchups against Carrollton. Let's all get out & show our #MinervaPride for our student athletes!

Wednesday, Feb. 4
Boys & Girls Bowling at home vs. Salem at 4pm. This is their Senior Night and that recognition begins around 3:15-3:30pm.

Thursday, Feb. 5
MS, Girls & Varsity Wrestling at home vs. Carrollton. MS starts at 5:30pm. This is Girls and Varsity Boys Senior Night and those recognitions will begin around 6:15-6:30pm. Both teams are undefeated in the EBC, so this is a huge night for our wrestlers.
