Jaxon Brunaugh joined the coveted 1000 point club in Jersey's win over Southwestern tonight. Brunaugh needed 22 points to join the club. The Piasa Birds were down 2 points and fouled Brunaugh with .4 seconds left. Jaxon sunk his first free throw to hit 1000 points. After a quick embrace from his teammates on the court, he drained his second attempt to put the Panthers up by four points and secured the victory. Congratulations, Jaxon! Jersey 100 is proud of you and we've enjoyed watching your journey in reaching this milestone.
Jersey 100 would like to thank Southwestern High School for acknowledging the special moment over the PA and providing the game ball to Jaxon.
JCHS Boys Basketball went on the road down Route 16 to take on the Piasa Birds. The Panthers defeated Southwestern by a score of 48-44.
Kaelyn Drainer, a student in the high school TEACH program, created a gift for each student in Mrs. Eschbach’s kindergarten class. She and her sister Kamryn used Adobe Photoshop to make socks with the students’ favorite colors and characters. The kids LOVED them!
