Junior Trojans sending the boys off to state basketball. #TrojanPride
Two of the games at todays pep rally. The first was head shoulders knees and Pom which came down to the Caselman siblings. The second was musical chairs accompanied by our own band. Great spirit as we honor wrestling, girls basketball, and our state bound boys team. #TrojanPride
The Trojans are headed to Hutchinson looking to earn TWO trophies. One for boys basketball and the other for sportsmanship. The KSHSAA rates each school for several sportsmanship categories on a five point scale for each game played. Last year, during our one loss, a reviewer scored the Cheer squad a 4/5, the players a 4/5, the coaches a 5/5, and our fans received a -1/5. The negative 1 rating was based on fans yelling at officials. Officiating is an extremely difficult job performed by dedicated individuals. We cannot even play the game without them. They are human and they may make mistakes but it is not intentional and yelling at them will not create better calls. The officials at the state games are the best of the best, having gone through a strict evaluation submitted by every coach from every school. Lets cheer on our boys to victory and represent the SES nation with pride. Lets bring home two trophies this year by keeping it positive.
Trojan Fans headed to State Basketball :
The Kansas State High School Activities Association, through its member schools, defines sportsmanship as those qualities of behavior which are characterized by generosity and genuine concern for others. Further, an awareness is expected of the
impact of an individual’s influence on the behavior of others.
The excitement of a basketball game can create concerns for fans, students and officials. Citizenship/Sportsmanship Rule 52 addresses this by stating: “Win with character and lose with dignity.”
Outstanding sportsmanship is acknowledged each year by presenting sportsmanship certificates, plaques and medals. All 112 high school teams participating in KSHSAA State Basketball Tournaments may qualify for an award. A “rating” system is used allowing schools to compete against a “standard of excellence”, rather than competing against one another.
A special sportsmanship committee appointed by the KSHSAA evaluates and rates the cheerleaders, school cheering section, adult and non-high school followers, team and coach of each school. Winners of the Sportsmanship Awards will be announced at a later date.
Show your support for the Trojans in a positive way and help the School/Community bring home the Sportsmanship Award!
