⚾ A Season to Be Proud Of ⚡

The Blazers closed out a memorable season with a hard-fought loss to PVO in Regional play. Eren delivered an outstanding performance on the mound, Patrick made several impressive plays behind the plate, and the infield remained strong throughout the game with key outs.

From powerful hits and aggressive base running to determination through the final play, this team gave us plenty to celebrate all season long. Congratulations to our players and coaches on a fantastic season—we are incredibly proud of our Blazers! 💜⚾

⛳️ STATE BOUND! ⚡️

Good luck to our two Trailblazer golfers competing at the State Tournament at Metamora Fields!

Sarah I. (MSC) takes the course today after placing 5th at Sectionals, while Hayden H. (MSC) will compete tomorrow after earning an incredible 1st-place Sectional finish.

Both athletes also competed at State last year, and Hayden has now qualified in each year of his middle school career—an outstanding accomplishment! Oh, and his 6th place position on last year's podium is definitely worth another shout out!

Sarah and Hayden, you’ve earned your place among the best. We’re proud of you and ready to cheer you on! 💜🏌️‍♀️🏌️‍♂️⚡️

⛸️💜 Record-Breaking Speed for an NGS Trailblazer! 💜⚡

Congratulations to Jancsi W. on an incredible performance at the Land of Lincoln Regional Meet held March 8 at the University of Illinois Ice Arena!

Competing against skaters ages 9–12, Jancsi delivered an amazing race in the 1500m short track, finishing with a time of 2:56.72 — breaking the Illinois state record for ages 7–8 (3:24.48) by nearly 28 seconds!

Even more impressive, his time is also faster than the Illinois state record for ages 9–10.

Jancsi also broke the Illinois state record for the 777m race in the 7–8 age division during the meet.

Racing in helmet #133, Jancsi was the youngest and smallest competitor in the field, making his achievement even more remarkable.

👏 Congratulations, Jancsi! We are proud of your hard work, determination, and blazing speed on the ice.
