Swan Valley Athletics is honoring 2 Viking Athletes of the Week from the week of October 13th. Congratulations to Hudson Maxa (Freshman Football) and Maddie Turner (Varsity Volleyball) for earning this prestigious award!
Here is what their nominators had to say about them fulfilling one or more of the Viking Athletic Core Values:
"Hudson leads by example. He shows up every day ready to put the work in to get better. He puts extra work in the weight room after practice nearly every day. He's never one I have to question because I know he's giving it his all. Future is bright for this young man!"
"Our senior setter, Maddie, has worked extremely hard to secure her position this season. She has grown in her skill level as well as her volleyball IQ. She does well on and off the court. She is always asking how to get better and makes adjustments."
Viking Pride!



Today is the day! Come on out to support a local business and Swan Valley Athletics! 20% of all Mobile Order & Pay sales in the McDonald's App at the Shields' McDonald's will be donated to Swan Valley Athletics. Please see the flyer for more details.

20 of Swan Valley High School's fall student-athletes traveled to Shields and Havens Elementary to read to Swan Valley's youth today. There was much positive interaction and connections made. This field trip fulfilled the athletic department's core values of Knowledge - Knowledge is Power, Influence - Everyone leads, and Nobility - Do the right thing.
Way to be positive role models Vikings!
