OLENTANGY
Welcome!
2020 MEDIA GUIDE
We would like to thank you for coming to tonight’s game. Your participation and support of our students and coaches is what keeps these programs so enriching for our school. We believe that athletic competition builds character and encourages our students to work through challenges as part of a team. Many of the lessons learned on the playing field today become important building blocks for the future of our young athletes’ lives. Our program strives to promote and reinforce principles of good sportsmanship, and while our philosophy holds that sports are very important, they are only one portion of our total educational program. We are immensely grateful for the support you give to our excellent teams. Finally, a special “THANK YOU” to all the sponsors who are supporting Olentangy High School by advertising in our fall sports program. We truly appreciate your contribution.
GO BRAVES!
