Due to all of the rain over the last couple of days, our baseball and softball fields have taken on a lot of water. It has taken a lot of work to get these fields in good enough shape to get on them for practices. We ask that you please stay off of the wet fields, and please keep bicycles off of the diamonds at all time. Also as a reminder, please stay off of fields that have been lined for a game. Thank you for your cooperation. #WeAreIC #BeJimmy

The Fall Sports Meeting will be held on Monday, August 8 at 5:30 PM in the HS Gym.

If you have any questions, please email Ryan Burks at rburks@illinicentral.org #WeAreIC #Be Jimmy

Good evening Cougars! I hope everyone is having a great weekend. I wanted to remind everyone of 2 new seasons starting up tomorrow morning and a schedule change for softball. MS Cross Country practice will begin tomorrow from 8-9 am. Please meet in back of the school by the modular buildings. MS Baseball season also starts tomorrow with tryouts being held from 9-11. The tryouts will take place at the baseball field. Finally, MS softball practice will be from 9-11 this week as well in an effort to beat the heat.
