Volunteers Needed for
District Swim Meet
Saturday, January 28th  

   Volunteers are needed to work concession stands and sell t-shirts at the upcoming district swim meet.  Please consider giving 2 hours of your time for this event.

The swim meet will be held at the Frisco Natatorium, just off North County Rd near Memorial Stadium. 
Below is the link to a Google Doc where volunteers can sign up: 

Volunteer Sign Up

Once you open the link, there is a tab with Concessions at the bottom of the page.  Please go to that tab and fill in when you can work.  We want at least 2 parents per shift, after that volunteers can be either students or parents (students will receive volunteer hours).

  Also in the same tab is a sign up to sell T-shirts (just below the Concession Stand sign up).  Need one or two parents to do that, too.
  
    

Wakeland Men's Basketball 

 
Wolverines ground Redhawks
for second district win

Your Wakeland Wolverines got back to their winning ways by defeating the Redhawks of Liberty Tuesday night by a score of 59-41. The Redhawks jumped out to a seven point lead in the first few minutes of the game, but the Wolverines came flying back in the second quarter to take a double digit lead by halftime. Junior Varsity Head Coach Blake Reedy mentioned, "I was glad to see our kids show some maturity and put the fire out when the Redhawks came out with guns a blazing!" Vashun Lusk led the Wolverines with 11 points and 7 rebounds, while Doriel Yeager and Noah Westerfield added eleven as well. Daniel Rentie set a new school record in steals with 6. This brings Wakeland's overall record to 10-11, and 2-2 in district play. The Wolverines will be back in action Friday night against the Lions of R.L. Turner. Tip-off is at 8pm, so come out and support your orange and blue. 

Wolverines roar past Lions
for third district win  

Your Wakeland Wolverines wasted no time on Friday night by mauling the Lions of R.L. Turner by a score of 70-31. The Wolverines jumped out to a 31-8 lead in the opening quarter, and never looked back. Wakeland was able to hold Turner to single digits in each quarter of play. Head Freshmen Coach Joe Lewis yelled at half-time, "so what if we're up by 30, lets go out there in the second half, do things the right way, and put the pedal to the floor, it's not worth winning if you can't win big!" Josh Harris stunned silenced the Lions early with 6 "3" pointers in the first half of play. Harris ended the night with a career high, 22 points. Cameron Walker added 10 points and 8 rebounds, while Vashun Lusk pulled down 8 boards as well. Sean Watkins, Daniel Rentie, and Zol Singleton all picked the Lion's den three times a piece. This brings Wakeland's overall record back to .500 at 11-11, with a 3-2 district record. The Wolverines have a huge week ahead of them as they will face off against two opponents that they are currently tied with in district play. First, Wakeland will host cross-town rival, the Frisco Raccoons on Tuesday night, so you better get their early, because its going to be packed and the house will be rocking!
