The lady tigers game at Hammons Center has been delayed until 11:00 a.m. due to a water leak

Entry into the girls 8:00pm game tonight will be approximately 7:30pm, depending on the length of the game ahead of us. MSHSAA is requiring the arena be emptied after each game, disinfected, then a new admittance for the next game. This also means you must buy separate tickets for each game you wish to attend during the State games.

Reminder: MSHSAA & the Greene County Health Dept. will be strictly enforcing Greene County’s mask mandate and social distancing (seating will only be allowed in designated areas/rows/seats). MSHSAA has stated that games may be paused and/or delayed if fans are not complying with these mandates.

Check out our students celebrating the 100th day of school!
