Interesting Sports Facts
Did you know that soccer shin guards date back to the Ancient Greeks and Romans? At that time, they were made from bronze and were worn for protection during battle. It wasn't until the 19th century that the purpose of shin guards shifted from battle gear to sporting equipment.
Congratulations
Varsity freshmen golfer, Dante Sbarbaro, qualified for the State Division I Golf Championships on the Big Island, May 9th and 10th. This is quite an accomplishment.
