Lady Rebels Kickoff Basketball Season

By: Chloe Spradley

These past months the Lady Rebel’s JV and Varsity teams have been working hard for the upcoming season. So far, the girls have played 5 games, Varsity winning all 5, and JV with a record of 2-3. For this season, we had two new coaches come in – Coach Ty Jones coaching the JV boys and Coach Trey Pittman coaching Varsity boys and girls.

Coach Pittman coached at Riverdale many years ago and is excited to be back! I had the chance to ask Coach Pittman a few questions about how he feels about Riverdale so far and his future goals for the team; this is what he had to say: “I love Riverdale and always have. It seems just like I stepped right back to where I left in 2004. The parents, students, faculty, and alumni are all very supportive of the basketball program. Everyone pulls in the same directions and it has helped us to some early season success. Our goals for the team are blue trophies, no matter which tournament we play in. Our boys and girls all work extremely hard, and it is my responsibility to guide them to where we need to be in February.”

Everyone has high hopes for Coach Pittman and are thrilled to have him as part of the Riverdale family.

Meet The Rebels will be held on November 28th. Everyone is invited to come participate in the raffles and support our Rebels!
