2024 WHS CROSS COUNTRY SCHEDULE
Wellington was back in action at the 9th Street courts yesterday evening for their second home varsity meet in as many weeks, and once again, the Lady Crusaders won the quad. Coaches Aufdengarten and Adams swapped in some different varsity players from last week for their shot at a hometown performance, including senior Scout Douglas and freshmen Gracie Thomson, Addi Thomson, and Sienna Goodrum.
The subvarsity football season debuted at Sellers Park this Monday with two quarters of a "C" game followed by a JV game. The JV Crusaders fell short of a win with a final score of 12-20. View the Wellington.cc photos as well as some great photos from new WHS yearbook photographers below!

The WHS Football program held its third annual "Decals with Dudes" event, a team tradition started by head coach Jeremiah Meeks to foster a sense of community and family within the team and with the athletes' loved ones. The football players invite special people in their lives to help them apply their helmet decals--this year's design featuring a white stripe and letter "W" on the player's left-hand side. The coaches provide a dinner of Big Cheese Pizza and also announce the team's captains as voted on by the players.
Varsity and JV Volleyball began their season Tuesday with a triangular hosted at El Dorado. The yearbook students took some fabulous photos—be sure to check out the full set!
Varsity Results:
