67 days for the 59ers to take the field. π
(and classes to resume of course!)
What started as a devastating tornado recovery effort became a race to get Andrean High School ready for the first day of school.
Weβre incredibly proud of the Tonn and Blank team, our trade partners, and everyone at Andrean who helped make it happen. Most of all, weβre grateful to have been trusted with such an important responsibility for this school community.
And tonight, the 59ers host the annual Battle of Broadway against Merrillville, the first time since becoming an annual rivalry in 2009, as Merrillville continues working to restore power.
A school reopening, football season starting, community coming together. Thatβs worth celebrating!
