They will now play for the Sectional Championship and a trip to IESA State on Wednesday, December 3 at 6:00 pm vs. Illini Bluffs. The game will be played at St. Philomena School in Peoria. We will take a fan bus for any students who would like to attend the game. It will be open to the first 50 students who sign up AND pay the $5 entry fee to the game. We collect this ahead of time so that students don't have to walk up and individually pay for entry to the game. Signups will begin tomorrow morning, Tuesday, December 2 in the KJHS office. Students who plan to attend will need money if they want to purchase anything from the concession stand. The bus will leave KJHS at 4:50 pm and we will send a notification when we depart from Peoria. Good luck and Go Bullets!!
