Wildcats reward faithful student section
The most impressive thing about Springfield High School’s new gymnasium has nothing to do with the square footage or the lighting. The Springfield student section is giving the Wildcats a big boost.
Head coach Bill Slagle and leading scorer Zack Burks both credited the raucous students after Friday’s 64-58 victory over Northmont, the team’s first win in the new gym.
“People we’re worried about the school’s coming together, and I wish they would come and see how well they’re getting along and having fun,” Slagle said. “That’s what I told my guys. I want them to remember how it was tonight and how the kids supported them and make sure they go and thank their friends for coming. It was a great atmosphere.”
The players are supporting each other as the fans have supported them. The Tigers (3-6) had lost their four previous home games.
“It’s easy to fall apart as a team when you have as many losses as that,” Burks said, “but we stuck together.”
