We have wrapped up another great summer of Strength & Conditioning at BJSHS.
Thanks to all the student-athletes that showed dedication all summer long. We are proud of you!
Special thanks to Destiny Masters and Torrance Lovesee, both BHS alum and current Division 1 Athletes, for giving back to their alma mater this summer and working with our kids!
Also thanks to coaches Bisbee, Burgardt, Burtin, Cordell, and Gomez for putting in a lot of time as well.
Last but not least, HUGE shout out to Coach Baker who traveled twice a day all summer from Wichita to give our athletes more opportunities to grow.
I am excited to see all our athletes in competition this school year! #LionPride
