According to maintenance foreman Mike Wyatt, as the fall sport season winds down, the maintenance department will continue to prepare the building and gymnasiums for the winter season.
Wyatt said the department has already switched the volleyball scoreboards to a wrestling configuration. Other changes will include preparing the water in the natatorium and “winterizing” buildings in the football stadium.
Paige Bousamra, basketball cheerleader and junior, said she appreciates how the maintenance department has been helping out in other ways on the court.
“We had a cheer camp and they carried our mats to the Blue and Gold gym,” she said.
“One time, I wanted to practice and they opened a gym for me. It’s really nice, the little things they do for us.”
