West Harrison Host Special Olympics Basketball Tournament
West Harrison hosted the West Region Basketball Tournament on Saturday, Feb. 1st. This is the fifth year that West Harrison has hosted this tournament and it has become an event that many students look forward to. There were 28 teams from around western Iowa, from Sioux Center to Griswold. There were 3 on 3 half court divisions as well as 5 on 5 full court games. There were a total of 28 games played over 5 courts from 9:00 am to about 2:30 pm.
We had 12 student and 4 adult volunteers this year. The students worked the scoreboard, scorebook, kept time, gave out ribbons, and any other jobs they were asked to do.
There were many remarks made by the Special Olympic Members as well as parents on how well the students did their jobs. They were all impressed by our facilities and our workers. The students did a great job and represented West Harrison as outstanding people.
Student volunteers: Joslynn Thomas, Hannah Thomas, Grace Thomas, Lannie Gustafson, Lily Gustafson, Choe Gilgen, Cody Radil, Maren Evans, Chenoa Bowman, Nick clark, Katie gore, and Haleigh Rife.
Also, thank you to the Spanish Group for doing the concession stand and the following teachers and community members for their help: Tony Nunez, Kathy Glennie, Tara Rife, Rowdy Evans, Ben Nuzum, Carmen Palmero, and Mehgan Treasure
