Athletics

Student-Athlete of the Week: Braden Robertson is the student-athlete of the week. Braden represents the 8th-grade boy’s basketball team and is a great representative of GCJHS. Braden was recently selected as a captain by his teammates. In his first two games, he has been the leading scorer averaging 13.5 ppg. Even more impressive than his abilities on the floor, is how he performs in the classroom. Braden finished with straight A’s last quarter. Solid work, Braden!

Congratulations to all the student-athletes that made the final cuts for the Girls Basketball teams.

Wrestling Practices begin today after school from 3:30 – 5:30pm.
