If you were on the team and would like to attend, please contact Prairie High School at 208-962-3901 and leave your contact information with Cheri Holthaus.

Second row from left are Cody Schumacher, Chris Schmidt, Cody Miller, Jimmy Ingbretson, J.C. Enriquez, Justin Schmidt, Mike Matson, Tyrell Langston and Kyle Holthaus.
