In only their second year of existence, the USHS Varsity Girls Bowling team are N10 LEAGUE CHAMPIONS! In the inaugural N10 Championships held at Bowlero Lanes in Fostoria on Saturday, the Lady Rams held off Seneca East (3,275 to 3,046) to claim the team's (and league's) first ever N10 title. The Lady Rams were a perfect 8-0 in conference play (12-0 overall) and capped off their historic season with a league championship. The ladies were led by Freshman Melanie Bowen who bowled a 539 three game series to finish 2nd overall individually and Senior Olivia Griswold who bowled a 524 three game series to finish 3rd overall individually. Rounding out the top 8 performances was Sophomore Michaelynn Hill who bowled a 449 three game series and finished 8th individually. What a historic season for the Lady Rams and Coach Mates. Congratulations again ladies.
The Rams finished the N10 Tournament in 4th place and finished their regular season at 4-4 in conference play. Leading the way for the Rams was Junior Rowen Kennedy who bowled a 540 three game series to finish 8th individually.
Both teams will be back in action next Monday, February 2nd against New Riegel.

Have you seen the posts about a fantastic organization called Sleep in Heavenly Peace on local community pages? If not, they are a reputable organization that builds and provides beds for youth in need.
We feel that every child deserves a safe and comfortable place to sleep and in that spirit, we have two National Honor Society students, Derek Barr and Lyman Starner who are raising money to pay for one or more beds to be built.
If you would like to donate, drop off or send your donations to the HS and we will be sure to get them to these young men. Thank you!
Our first athletic change for this weekend has happened. In an attempt to beat any early snow accumulations, tomorrow night's JV/Varsity Boys Basketball game at Riverdale has been moved to a 3:30 PM start (JV tip). Please adjust your calendars appropriately and help spread the word.
All other Saturday events are still ON as planned. This includes:
- Varsity Swimming @ NCOSL Championshipst (CCHS)
- Varsity Bowling at N10 Championships (Bowlero Lanes)
- Varsity Wrestling @ VB Invite
- JH Boys Basketball v. CC (rescheduled from 1/19)
- JH Wrestling @ SE Invite

We will keep you posted if this changes. Thanks for your continued support of Rams Athletics.

The Upper Sandusky High School Students of the Month for December are: Freshman, Malachi H.; Sophomore, Blake G.; Junior, Rylee M., and Senior, Josefina E. The Upper Sandusky Lions Club, represented by John Krock, sponsors the program by presenting each student with a certificate and a monetary donation. Congrats!
Please consider supporting the high school yearbook class fundraiser in order to keep costs down for the students. In recent years, the yearbook fund has struggled to keep up with rising costs and trying not to have to pass it along to students wanting to have a yearbook for their memories.
Butter braids, pumpkin rolls and the other items they carry are delicious and will arrive Feb 25th.
There is also a dog treat available for dog lovers and an opportunity to just make a donation if you prefer that method!
Please use this link to place your order.

Just choose a student name and the order form will come up for you to place your order.
Orders close February 4th.
Thank you in advance for your order!
IMPORTANT ATHLETIC INFORMATION
With Mother Nature threatening anywhere from one to 4,000+ inches of snow in the coming days, we wanted to keep you updated on our plans for athletic contests for the remainder of this week. As of this posting, all athletic events from today through Saturday, January 24th are STILL ON AS SCHEDULED. We will continue to monitor the weather and make decisions about athletic events as the time comes and when we have more information so please be patient and on the lookout for updates.
Looking at today and tomorrow's contests, here are some important reminders:
- Today's basketball games against Bucyrus will be a triple header format with a Freshman Boys Basketball game starting at 5:00 PM followed by 2 quarters of JV Girls Basketball and capped off with Varsity Girls Basketball. Please be aware that the start times of the JV and Varsity girls contests are not definitive so please plan accordingly. This will not be a split session so admission for all the games will be $8 Adult/$7 Student.
FRIDAY, JANUARY 23
- The JV/Varsity Boys Basketball game against Carey will also be our JH Boys Basketball and Cheerleader Recognition Night. We will be recognizing our 7th and 8th grade players and cheerleaders in between the JV and Varsity contests tomorrow. We will also be collecting canned food items for Open Door Resource Center at tomorrow's game so if you bring in a canned food item, you will receive $1 off of your admission. Boxes will be at each entrance tomorrow for you to deposit your item(s). This is part of one of our NHS student's project so please help us out by donating. We will also be serenaded by the quartet "A Choir'd Taste" from Mansfield, Ohio who will be singing our National Anthem so you don't want to miss it.
Again, please help us spread this information to those who need to hear it. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and let's hope we can still enjoy some athletic contests this weekend. Stay safe, stay warm.

Today's Career Day field trip for Sophomores has been cancelled due to some mechanical issues at one of the school districts scheduled to attend. It is our hope that we can reschedule this valuable experience for our students.
