✅ Cougar Athletics
National Signing Day
On the final National Signing Day of the 2023-2024 school year, 27 student-athletes from Lakeville South signed their National Letters of Intent to continue their education and athletic careers. Teammates, siblings, parents and staff, gathered at the Lakeville South Performance Gym to witness the official commitments as these future graduates go on to represent the Cougars in seven different states across 13 colleges and universities. There were 13 different sport programs with a signee, showcasing the depth of Lakeville South’s athletic programs. Of the group, student-athletes are set to compete across all levels at Division I, II, III, and NAIA, while six student-athletes from football and five from track and field led team representation.
Girls Track and Field SSC Champions!
For the first time since 2016, Lakeville South Girls Track and Field are the South Suburban Conference Champions! It was truly a TEAM effort. While not winning a single event isn’t usually a recipe for winning in the “traditionally scored” conference meet (only top 8 places score), our girls were able to score 139 points and hold off Prior Lake (116 points) despite them winning 7 of the 18 contested events. Way to go Cougars!!
- Softball, Tennis and Adaptive Softball have all closed out their seasons. Good luck to Baseball, Golf, Lacrosse, Volleyball and Track teams as they enter section play.
