From the Chireno Owls Sports Wire: This is a reminder from Del Valle ISD, host of the Class 1-A Region IV Basketball Tournament this weekend: All fans who enter school facilities at Del Valle ISD will be required to wear a mask and it must be worn for the entirety of the contest you are watching. So, please remember to bring a mask along with your purple and your Owl pride!


From the Chireno Owls Sports Wire: Congratulations to Payton Pearson, who will be representing our Boys' Powerlifting team this Saturday at the Regional round of competition in Malakoff. Payton is currently ranked 10th in our region and is only getting stronger. Good luck, Payton!! Also, don't forget that a community pep rally will be held this afternoon at 5:30 in our gym for our Mighty Owls basketball team as they punched their ticket to the Region IV Semi-Finals last night with a convincing win over Hubbard. Next up will be McMullen County on Friday evening at 6:00 pm at Del Valle High School.

I wanted to inform you that to celebrate our Mighty Owls basketball success and after checking to make sure that we will have the state-required minutes, we will be canceling school for Friday, March 4th. This will allow for everyone who wants to attend the game on Friday evening to do so without being rushed getting to Austin. I hope to see everyone down in Austin to cheer on our Mighty Owls in their quest to make it to State!
Thanks,
