Union County High-Q

Congrats High-Q! Today we competed in our district tournament. JV took second and varsity took first! Both teams will compete in our regional conference in January. I continue to be in awe of these students’ wit and dedication.

Sorry for not updating in so long, High-Q fans!

Today was our last regular season match, and we are wrapping up another exciting fall with our team. After a series of heroic wins and a couple humbling losses, High-Q finished with a record of 4-1 for JV and 5-1 for varsity. All of these students have worked extremely hard this year— on top of balancing busy school schedules, almost all of them also juggle other extra-curriculars such as football, band, and FFA. They study and practice for High-Q with the little spare time they have. They’re fierce competitors who pour their hearts into every match. They push me to be a better educator and coach. I love these kids and feel privileged each year I’m able to work with them. Special shout-out to this year’s seniors— Connor Beighley (varsity captain), Jared Benton, JD Johnson, Alex Perez, Jonathan Schmidt, and Wesley Courson. Most of these kids have been with the team all four years of high school and it’s been an honor to watch them grow as competitors and scholars. As always, I want to thank the moderators, judges, and parents who support our team— we wouldn’t be here without y’all. Here’s to another amazing season for UCHS High-Q! ❤️

Because we are totally not over it yet— here are a few pics from the awards ceremony. Do you think they’re excited about that trophy? 😗😗
