Thanks to all the supporters for coming for our featured game on Friday, we really showed some t-wolves spirit! Hope you liked the free stuff!

Dear Students,

Athletic participation carries with it innumerable benefits to your growth and development.  Athletes perform better academically than non-athletes in schools around the world.  Strong athletic programs help develop strong young people.  If you are unsure which sport to try, please come and see me in office 301.  My sincere hope is that each and every CDNIS student finds the athlete inside themselves and represents the T-Wolves this season.
