It was a fun week of homecoming activities coming to an end with the Patriots football team beating the SBA Crusaders. Our JV team was able to finally get a taste of varsity level football. We have work to do, but overall we competed. Our JV team competes against some of the best athletes in our state everyday in practice. I expect them to grow and be better because of this. Our Varsity players played well. We have a bye week next week, but will continue to improve each week in the coming weeks. We look forward to De Smet October 7, 2022 at 7PM in De Smet. Our JH team will finish their season that night before our game. Game stats below. Thank you for your continued support of our Patriots. #GoPatriotNation
