Thank you to everyone who made this year a great year to be a Buccaneer!!!
 

We would like to congratulate the track team for a great year. After winning the districts and doing a superb job at sub-sectionals, the team also did a great job last week at sectionals. Many were just a fraction of a second off making it to state. David Smith, Stephanie Davenport, Marie Jacobs, Michelle Green and Landry Loving will all be heading for Murfreesboro Wednesday for the State tournament after qualifying at sectionals. Good Luck! We are proud of you!

The baseball season came to an end Friday night after giving us a great season. After beginning the season 1-1 1 the fighting spirit of the Bucs was evident when they came back and won the District championship defeating Unaka twice to win it then went on to clinch the Region by defeating Hancock County. They ended as sub-state runners-up. What a great way to end the season!

Fan of the month for May is Rachel Kidd.

We finally wish to recognize all of the senior athletes for spring sports — who have not been recognized yet. Matt Bennett, Van Mominee, Taylor Fleenor, John Stafford, Philip Bardes, Hunter Hayden, and Chris Russell.

Go, Bucs!
