The USHS Athletic Department would like to send some special SHOUT OUTS to some pretty awesome student athletes and coaches on some pretty awesome accomplishments this past week.
First, CONGRATULATIONS goes out to USHS Head Football Coach Russell Hall who was named the Lewis Family McDonald's Coach of the Month! Coach Hall was nominated by his players for this recognition and we are so grateful for the time and effort he puts into both teaching and coaching at USHS. A true professional in every sense of the word who always goes above and beyond for his co-workers and student-athletes. Ram Nation is extremely proud to have Coach Hall on our sidelines and in our hallways. Congratulations Coach on this very deserving recognition.
Another CONGRATULATION SHOUT OUT goes out to the USHS Lady Rams Golf team who made history (twice) this past week. First, the team set a new team score record with a 175 last week at Loudon Meadows! This breaks the previous school record set just last year at 187. Another great performance by our Lady Ram golfers. But to top it all off, the Lady Rams won their first ever N10 Conference Championships on Tuesday at Woody Ridge Golf Course in Shelby! The team edged league newcomer Hopewell-Loudon by 1 stroke (362-363) to claim the team's first ever title and the first ever league championship to be awarded in the newly expanded league. What an amazing accomplishment for our ladies and Coach Newell. Ram Nation is extremely proud of these accomplishments but even more proud of how you represent our school and community off the links.
Another CONGRATULATIONS SHOUT OUT goes to the USHS Rams Golf team who won the final N10 Championship Tournament of the season yesterday at Woody Ridge. The team was paced by Sophomore Toby H. who fired a scorching 68. The Rams held off league champion Colonel Crawford 308-312 for the final prize of the season. Great effort and performances by the guys and Coach Treadway.
Some great stuff continuing to go on with our fall sports teams and athletes so make sure you are catching them in action.
