Show your school spirit by Showing Up!  It’s the 2nd Annual Attendance Challenge vs Pitt!  Attendance is tracked daily.  From now until February 10th, we will compare daily attendance with Pitt and see which school has more students Showing Up and that school earns the crown!  The winner will be announced during halftime of the varsity boys game @ Pitt on February 17th.  

So, SHOW UP!  Let’s slay the purple dragons!
