What a glorious return to in-person athletics for our Greenwood Grizzlies. With 15 teams and nearly 300 student athletes participating, this was our biggest fall term yet! Judging by those numbers, it is plain to see that Greenwood students were excited to be back.
“I felt so happy and relieved to be starting athletics again. The lockdown without sports felt so long, and for students to get back into their regular physical activities is so exciting!” says Madi Reid, one of the Athletics Committee student execs. “Last year we were able to do some intramurals, but it just didn’t feel the same with so many rules in place. Seeing everyone supporting one another in playing sports again is so amazing! I encourage everyone to be a part of the Athletics here at Greenwood, as we all are so excited to have an awesome year getting back into a sense of normalcy in school athletics.”
