State Basketball Sportsmanship

Each year at the State Basketball tournaments KSHSAA appoints a special committee to evaluate and rate the cheerleaders, school cheering section, adult and non-high school followers, team, and coaches of each school. A rating system is used and a certain score must be reached to receive an award.

Teams that make it to the semifinal rounds are eligible to receive a plaque.  Teams that do not advance past the first round are eligible to receive a certificate.

KSHSAA announced the winners last week, and Fort Scott High School received both a plaque for the Girls Basketball team and a certificate for the Boys Basketball team!!!  This is a tremendous accomplishment and a great reflection of our school and community!

KSHSAA sent us a copy of the rating sheets and they were filled with positive comments about all involved at State: cheerleaders, student section, the players on the floor, coaching staffs, adult fans, and also mentioned were our Band that performed Wednesday and Thursday and our Orchestra that performed Thursday. 

Thank you to all involved in making the week in Salina a special time and for representing our school and community in such a positive manner. So much to be proud of!  Tiger Pride was on full display in Salina!!!
