Middle School Basketball Season Finale Tonight!
It’s game day, Vikings! 🏀Join us at home tonight, January 16, as we cheer on the Central Heights Vikings in their final middle school basketball game of the season against the Uniontown Eagles. The first games begin at 4:30 PM in the Central Heights Gym, and this is a night you won’t want to miss.
This game is extra special as it marks the last middle school basketball game for our incredible 8th graders. Let’s pack the house and show them the support they deserve as we close out the season with a bang!
To add to the fun, we encourage everyone to wear their wackiest silly socks and Viking gear as we “sock it” to Uniontown. There will be plenty of excitement, including a live performance of the National Anthem, a t-shirt toss, and even an award for the silliest socks of the night.
Let’s bring the energy, have some fun, and make this a night to remember. See you there, Vikings!
