It is always a good idea to put your goals in writing, so think hard about what changes you will make for next week. Don’t forget to have a plan to go with your goal, because a goal without a plan is just a wish! Show your HUSKY Pride, today and everyday to make this year, this school and YOU the best ever! Sports Report: The 7th grade Husky football team came out firing on all cylinders last night in a 12-6 defeat of Gahanna East Middle School. After an opening 4th down stop on defense Ty O'Hearn took the Husky offense's first play from scrimmage 75 yards for the first score of the game. Late in the second quarter, Husky quarterback Kenton Flood hit Eli Pugh for a 20 yard passing strike to regain the lead. From there the Huskies never looked back as the defense stood strong pitching a second half shutout. Be sure to come out tonight to support the 8th grade as they have their opening game of the season at Gahanna East Middle School and both teams next Wednesday as they have their home openers in a double header at North HS! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Good Morning Huskies!
