On Wednesday January 27 Drumheller Valley Secondary School (DVSS) Sr. Girls hosted a basketball game against Trochu Valley School. Head Coach Jen Raugust said, “The girls had a great game. It’s been a challenging couple weeks with final exams and trying to get practices in. The girls played with a lot of intensity for most of the game, which is very encouraging.  My two captains (Karis Hilchey and Rachel Engen) are great leaders and are very positive young ladies, and I believe they are a big part of our team growth.”  The final score was 45-35 in favor of Trochu.  Pictured Karis Hilchey in the black/gold uniform.
