This week is an opportunity to bounce back for both teams as the JV Rams square off against Terry Fox on Wednesday November 2 at 1:30 at Mount Douglas, while the Varsity Rams travel to Carson Graham on Friday November 4 for a 2:00 pm kickoff. Around every corner there is another opportunity to improve!
