IC Imagine, 

We hope everyone is doing well and staying warm. We have a lot going on as we wrap up the Winter season with our Basketball Conference tournaments. Make plans to come cheer on our teams and help us pack our gym to capacity as we cheer on our student-athletes to victory!

We are also gearing up for our spring sports, tournaments, and additional programming. Review the information below so you don’t miss any important updates or opportunities.

As always, if you have any questions about our athletics programs, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
