Our Senior Recognition Night for Lady Lions softball, track and golf was originally scheduled for tonight, however when the softball game was moved to last night and then relocated to City View, the event was postponed. Next week's games against Holliday will now follow the original schedule of being in Holliday on Tuesday and home on Friday, but we will not be having the Lady LIons' Senior Recognition Night on Friday. Instead, we will be combining softball, baseball and boys' and girls' golf and track into one Senior Recognition Night that will be held on Tuesday, April 21, at Jabe Brazzle Field. The ceremony will begin at 6:30 p.m. We apologize for all of the changes and any confusion they may have caused.
Don't forget about the Vernon High School Pep Squad meeting set for 6 p.m., Tuesday, in the VHS Cafeteria. VHS is forming a Pep Squad for the 2026-27 school year and this meeting will provide information for parents of students who would like to be a member. The Pep Squad will be away for enthusiastic students to sit together and show their Lion Spirit in the stands.

With the rain we received last night making it impossible to play at Ronda Havins Softball Field today, the decision has been made to move the Vernon Lady Lions' game to Wichita Falls. Vernon and City View will now play at 5 p.m., today, at Lady Mustang Field. Our Lady Lions Senior Recognition for members of the softball, track, and golf teams has been moved to next Tuesday, April 7, when the Lady Lions will host Holliday. Please note that is also a schedule change, as Vernon was originally scheduled to face the Lady Eagles in Holliday on Tuesday.
Wednesday afternoon the decision was made to move the Vernon Lions' home baseball game from Friday to Thursday due to the possibility of severe weather on Friday and City View being out of school that day. However due to the rain we received last night, we are unable to play the game at Jabe Brazzle Field. So, the game will now be played at Mustang Field in Wichita Falls. There will be no JV game, so the District 7-3A varsity battle will begin at 6 p.m., with the Lions serving as the home team. Good luck Lions!!!
