If you weren’t at Friday’s boys’ basketball game against Mapleton Junior, you missed a great show. Despite the hot shooting of the Mustang’s Cameron Dorney, the Mustangs fell to our mighty Lobos 64-46.
Coach Johnson sent us his thoughts on the game:
Camden McDonald, an eighth-grade student at Spanish Fork Jr. High, won the school-level competition of the National Geographic Bee on December 11, 2015 and a chance at a $50,000 college scholarship.
The school-level Bee was the first round in the 28th annual National Geographic Bee. In order to participate in the Bee, eighth graders had to pass a written test with a high qualifying score. During the bee itself, qualifying students answered questions orally on geography.
Mapleton Junior’s girls’ basketball team showed up ready to play on Friday, December 11th. What an exciting game! Coach Harmer sent us this report with the details.
“Friday’s game with Mapleton was a tough and well fought battle. Both teams came out strong and the game was close the whole time.”
