Merry Christmas!
I hope the big guy was good to ya and that you have a wonderful day with family.
In the spirit of the holidays, I thought I’d list a few items old Santa might want to consider if he’s doling out gifts to local high schools.
KCI: How about a new gym? Yeah the Raiders ranch has some charm, but the dim lighting and cramped confines make it tough for anyone to play, even the hosts. And while you’re at it, see what you can do for Eastwood and Grand River.
SJAM: Speaking of facilities, Waterloo’s newest school doesn’t want anything fancy, but a useable football field would be nice. Playing every game on the road gets old fast.
Huron Heights: A senior team championship. The Huskies are still searching for a senior banner to hang in the gym in basketball, volleyball, soccer, football, field hockey, ice hockey, rugby and soccer.
Bluevale: An interpreter for coach Doros Theodosiou. With all five starters able to speak Serbian, he may need some help.
Galt: A third jersey. With a school name like the Ghosts, just think of the logo opportunities. Get a student to design ‘em. Could even turn it into a fundraiser. I know I’d buy one.
Monsignor Doyle: A girls wrestling coach. The school is the definition of success on the mat in guys grappling. No girls team though. If a female teacher took on the job, the ‘Stangs could conquer the province.
St. David: A big man. The senior boys basketball team is deep, talented and fast. Just missing a true big man.
Waterloo-Oxford: A duck. How cool would it be to have a live duck mascot show up to field hockey games, squawking away in support of the Duckies?
What's wrong with Eastwood's gym?

How about bringing Murphy Burnatowski back to SJAM to make a push for the 2nd half and a WCSSAA championship + a trip to OFSAA?

"And while you’re at it, see what you can do for Eastwood and Grand River."
What's wrong with Grand River's gym? It's bright and spacious with lots of floor and bleacher seating. Not to mention it's loaded with banners.
Re. St. David: too bad Colton Hood was ruled ineligible. They'd be Triple-A OFSAA contenders.
"Waterloo-Oxford: A duck."
Why stop there? Bring out a live panther for Preston football games. Now that would be intimidating!
