Streaming Announcement for Tonight's Football Game:
We plan to stream the football game on Hudl as usual tonight. However, if it is raining during the game, we will need to pull our iPad into the crow's nest to protect it from the moisture. This will cause the view to be partially obstructed by the window in the crow's nest. Thank you ahead of time for understanding.
The Sorensen family won the auction at the Boosters Red Shoe event for the Cheer Experience for this year. Georgia was able to join the cheerleaders on the court tonight for her volleyball game experience. Be on the lookout at more home games where Georgia may make an appearance! Thank you Sorensen family for supporting Amherst Public Schools and our Boosters! Go Broncos!!! ❤️🖤📣🐴
The softball games scheduled for today (Sept. 24) have been canceled due to the rain.
Softball & Volleyball are both at home again tonight!
Head over to Patriot Park or the Amherst North Gym (or stop by both) and get ready to cheer!
See attachments for details.
