Four Students from the Greenbush-Middle River FCCLA Chapter Competed in the National STAR Event Competition at the 2023 FCCLA National Leadership Conference

Three Gator Girls teams earned trips to state this year, and, Tom Miller wrote about this “rare hat trick of making state in volleyball, basketball and softball” in the June 6th Grand Forks Herald. In Volleyball, they brought home the Consolation Championship title under coach Stacy Dahl. The Basketball team, coached by Brad Dahl, lost in the title game for the consolation championship. Coach Kent Christian and the Gator Softball team came home with the 2nd place trophy. The softball team alone has been to State 11 times. BGMR Gator Girls sports have been strong for many years, and these girls are strong leaders and leave future teams in position to be nothing but tough competition!
