Welcome back, Wildcat fans! We are excited to kick off the new school year with a full athletic calendar. Our student
athletes have worked hard in preparation for the new season. Cross Country is ready for their first meet in Union
Grove on Saturday, Volleyball is in full swing with the varsity team competing in the Groesbeck tournament today and
tomorrow, Team Tennis hosted their first home match of the season on Thursday, and varsity football will kick off
their season on September 1st versus Mabank. We encourage our fans to come out and support all our fall sports.
As a reminder, please don’t forget Meet the Wildcats, Monday, August 28th, 7:00 p.m., Wildcat Gym! We look forward
to introducing our football, cross country, fall tennis, and volleyball teams, as well as student trainers, band
members, cheerleaders and Kik Kats. Representatives from the PISD Athletic Booster Club will be available, also, to
answer any questions you may have about memberships and volunteer opportunities.

In Volleyball action:
The Ladycats played Pittsburg at home last Friday night in their first home game of the season. JVB lost a tough
match in 3 ( 25-13, 18-25, 11-15). JVA defeated Pittsburg (25-22, 22-25, 25-23)! The Varsity girls lost in three (20-25, 17-
25, 17-25). Faith Newman picked up 22 digs. McKenzie King had 22 assists. Destiny Mathews had 10 kills while Shayla
Arthur added 8 kills. The Ladycats will resume play in the Eustace tournament playing at 9 am vs. Mabank in the
Championship bracket.
The Ladycats hosted Alba-Golden Tuesday night. The JVB team fought hard in a 3 game match, but came up short (25
-20, 21-25, 23-25). Our JVA team won in exciting fashion coming from behind in the 3rd set to win (15-25, 25-16, 25-20)!
Our varsity girls showed heart and fight in their 5 game match with Alba-Golden. We came up short, but very proud of
the effort the girls gave (26-24, 15-25, 25-23, 22-25, 12-15). We will be playing in the Groesbeck tournament this Friday
and Saturday!
