Winning on the day were: Singles Tom Dwan JT Breen Owen LaCourt Doubles David Ferrio/Jack Pfeiffer Colin Meyer/Patrick Dwan Will Gallagher/Nick Naylor Corbin Sanborn/Dylan Werner The highlight of the day was our #3 Doubles team of Nick Naylor and Will Gallagher who made it all the way to the Finals!

BOYS AND GIRLS YOUTH BASKETBALL INFORMATION Hello everyone, we would like to announce our new partnership with Michigan Youth Basketball for our K-6 Youth Leagues. Our goal is to have any child who wants to play basketball be given the opportunity to do so. The league itself will run from January 11th-March 1st every Saturday at both John Glenn High School and Garber High School for Grades K-6. Your practice would be one hour before your game held at the same school's Middle School gym. There will be MHSAA officials for each game. Your players will be on a team with their school and grade partners. There is a Boys league and a Girls league. The program schedules these so there should be as little concern about same family game times being similar or conflicting. They are looking for volunteer coaches who are willing to help develop players first. Cost of the league is $145 per player but have multi family discounts as well as discounts based on family income. Financial aid is available through the athletic offices. This is a great opportunity to bring the best into our community and get the best out of our kids. More information on the flyers provided

John Glenn Girls Golf hosted Pinconning today and walked off with another win, bringing our season record to 7 and 1. Pinconning played us pretty tough...they've definitely improved quite a bit since we played each other last just a few weeks ago. Noelle Pobanz also scored her best 9 hole round today as well! Super cool to see the kids having fun and hitting the ball well. On the 1st tee, Glenn's first 4 golfers all hit draws off the tee and they looked pretty solid! Sydnie Barron earns shot of the day - she had hit her ball into a bunker on hole 7. The only way she could take her stance and still hit the ball would be to stand outside the bunker and squat way down. The ball was at least a foot below her feet. She hit it out like a pro! The girls next round is Regionals next Thursday10/10/24 at Currie Golf course.

Our Varsity Boys Soccer team finished the regular season 21-0-2 with another W tonight against the Broncos from North Branch with a final score of 8 0 What an incredible season and incredible group of young men!
