Hello all, just wanted to send out a reminder about our team's upcoming outing to the Fort Hays State University basketball game this Saturday, Nov. 16th. The game starts at 5:00pm. They will need to go through Gate 1. There will apparently be a game before the FHSU women play, so I would expect it to end around 7-7:30. We will have the girls message when the game is drawing to a close. They are welcome to enjoy the men's game as well. Team tickets have already been paid for. The girls will just need to give their first and last name to the gate attendant to enter. Parents are more than welcome to watch as well. Please have the girls bring money if they would like concessions during the game. Wear railer gear!
