Andale High School

Our team looks forward to the Rupp Tournament each year because of the high quality teams that attend the Rupp and the hard workers that ensure the tournament will be a success. This is a great tournament that will give us a good idea of where we are at going into the second part of our season.

Our team is currently 4-4 and is getting better with each game we play. To be successful at the Rupp Tournament, we know we will have to continue to improve each aspect of our game. Our players are working hard and excited for tournament week to begin.
