This past weekend, UTMS hosted Bearcat Madness, an epic showdown between students and staff. You might be wondering why it's taken a few days to post—well… we teachers needed some time to recover 😉.
Bearcat Madness was an incredible event that showcased our talented students on the court and the amazing school spirit from everyone who came out to cheer. The game was a nail-biter, coming down to the final second, where the students took the win (staff got robbed, but I might be a little biased).
A huge shoutout to our students, families, and community for making this event so special! Check out the photos and highlights, and start getting ready for next year—because the staff is already planning a rematch!
And a special shoutout to Mrs. Eleftheri and the UTMS News Team for putting on such an incredible event! Your hard work and dedication made Bearcat Madness a night to remember!
