Hawk Nation, below are some reminders that we received from IWU in regards to tomorrow's Super Sectional.
* Please remind your families and fans that all tickets need to be purchased in advance via the Go Fan website, just like all other IHSA rounds.
* Lastly, we were asked by IHSA to host both a 1A Super-Sectional at 4 pm and then a 4A Super-Sectional at 6:30 pm, so we will need you administrative team's assistance with the following:
* Please make sure your fans are aware there is another game being played after your game. Any official team photograph on the field should be organized and executed as quickly as possible. Then there will be a designated gathering space in front of the hitting/pitching pavilion where fans and players can take individual photos with the trophy, etc.
* Please make sure your teams clear out of the dugout areas as quickly as possible so the other teams for the second game can move in.

Monday’s open gym for girls basketball has been moved to 10:00 am - 12:00 pm because of the high school softball game. Please share!
Our girls brought home the Sectional Title tonight! This is the first-ever Sectional Championship in Meridian High School history.
It was a pitcher's duel with limited offense on both sides, but what got the job done was basic, simple, and beautiful softball.
Maddie Briggs showed great discipline at the plate, leading off the inning with a walk.
Charlotte Pritts laid down a perfect bunt, moving Maddie to second while reaching safely at first.
Morgan Knierim did what she does best and drove a hard-hit ball to left field to score Maddie from second.
Mix that offense with incredible pitching from Ashlee Schelling, including a gutsy, diving, headfirst catch on the first base foul line, and the Hawks came away with the victory.
The girls will play in the Super-Sectionals on Monday against Gardner @ 4:00 PM. The game will be played in Bloomington at Illinois Wesleyan University.
Stay tuned and go Hawks!!
