Jaguars danceline to open the season today at Alexandria Invitational - first competition is at 12:15pm - Boys basketball travels to Rockford tonight

The danceline meet began at 10:30am today at Jefferson High School in Alexandria.

The Jaguars boys basketball team will play its CMC game at Rockford tonight, Saturday. It was scheduled for last night but school was let out early, forcing all evening activities to be postponed.
