DeKalb County High School will receive the “Right Spirit of Sportsmanship” award presented by Rudy Kalis of WSMV on Thursday, February 9th during the final home basketball games of the regular season. DeKalb County will host Macon County that night.
“We were nominated by a referee from one of our ballgames. On February 9th, we want to fill the gym with fans. We are asking all fans to wear black and gold attire. A video of our fans will be made and aired on WSMV. Please come out and support your local Lady Tigers and Tigers. This night is also our Senior Night for all of our senior basketball players, managers, and cheerleaders,” said DCHS Principal Kathy Bryant.
“Also on Monday, February 6th, during the half-time of the boys’ game with Smith County, we will be recognizing all students who are a member of our ACT 21 and up club. Those students will receive free admission to that night’s games and will be awarded with a field trip and certificate,” said Bryant.
Action begins each night at 6 p.m. starting with the girls games. WJLE will have LIVE coverage.
