Last night, the senior boys basketball players and senior boys cross country runners were recognized. Chad Tindel and Hudson Mahaffey were honored as senior basketball players. Preston Shwartz, Mark Zimmerer and Hunter Norris were honored as senior cross country runners. Videos of the recognitions will be uploaded to the Eustace ISD YouTube page later today.
