March is only seven days away, and here comes another foot of snow!! With temperatures hitting almost 60 degrees last week, everyone had a false hope of good weather on it's way!! OH WELL!!!!
Physical Education classes head into their final stretches of basketball and weight training (and floor hockey in 6th grade). As reported earlier, students are doing a great job, and seem to be enjoying themselves. In addition, students who have had makeup work from earlier in the trimester are getting these taken care of.
In my blog from last week, I inadvertently failed to mention the great work our Lakeview moms did at the 6th grade Valentine's Day party......THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Varsity basketball heads into the final two weeks of the regular season, with some big rematch games coming up. Tomorrow (Monday; Feb. 23rd), the Boys travel to Eisenhower to take on the Generals. Wednesday brings Jefferson to Lakeview, pitting the one-loss Spartans vs. the undefeated Wolverines. The Spartans get right back into action on Thursday, as they travel to Westview Hills and the Wildcats. All games are scheduled for a 4 PM tipoff.
The final regular season game forthe Boys will be at Lakeview on Tuesday; March 3rd vs. Old Quarry!! Pick a date, and "Catch-Us-If-You-Can!!"
On a final note, the winner of last week's "Lunch with the Coach" question was Varsity basketball player Joe N.. Joe correctly answered ST. LOUIS CARDINALS to the question, "What National League team started Spring Training the previous Friday and did not overspend in signing Milton Bradley." The question for this week is what Lakeview player missed the Jefferson game due to illness, allowing Jeff J. to step into the starting lineup, recording 15 points and 6 rebounds.
Have a great week, and ...........GO SPARTANS!! PLAY HARD!!
Coach Dodd
