Winter Sport Tryouts & Practices
As the fall season winds down, it's time to start preparing for our upcoming winter sports season! Winter sport tryouts and practices are just around the corner, with staggered start dates for different teams. The attached infographics include all tryout and first-day practice times and locations for each sport.
A friendly reminder: to participate on the first day of practice or tryouts, student-athletes must be registered on Snap8to18 and have an up-to-date physical on file with the Athletic Department. Please be sure to complete these requirements before tryouts begin!
For more information on the requirements and registration process, check out this link: Huskie Athletics Info. We’re excited to see everyone bring their best as we gear up for another successful winter season.
