Officials Appreciation Week
The wildcats celebrate our officials. We appreciate all that they do to ensure we can continue playing. Throughout the difficult times, they keep coming back and the Wildcats say, “Thank You!”
Softball
Although, the young ladies on the softball team struggled on the field this year (9-11-1 overall, but 3rd in conference pool 6 -4), they showed how they support others off the field. One of the goals of the Hazelwood West Athletic Department is to develop young people of character. The softball team exemplified this goal. The team sponsored a “Strike out Cancer” Event to support one of our teachers who is a survivor of this disease. The team also continued their support of our community by giving time at the local food bank
