KSHSAA Buffer Week, Rule 9, goes into effect Monday, 11/10, through Sunday, 11/16.

During KSHSAA Buffer Week, high school athletes cannot access school facilities for workouts, and coaches are prohibited from conducting practices or conditioning. The week provides a break between fall and winter sports seasons, and winter sports practices may begin on the Monday following Buffer Week. Some voluntary non-school-related musical activities may be allowed, but school staff cannot be involved. The Fall Athletic Buffer Week does not eliminate football practice for those high schools who qualify for football play-offs until such time their football season is over.

This rule does not apply to middle school athletes, who may continue with their regular practice and season schedules.

If you have any questions, please contact our District Athletic/Activity Director, Cole Bottom.

The Jefferson West Tigers (3A) claimed the Regional championship with a 49–14 victory over Prairie View Friday night. The win improves the Tigers’ record to 8–2 on the season, marking a dramatic turnaround from last year’s 2–7 campaign.

Under new head coach Jeff Schwinn, Jefferson West has emerged as one of the most improved football programs in Kansas this season. This is Jefferson West’s first Regional championship since 1993. They will travel to Hayden this week in their Sectional Matchup looking to keep their historic season alive. TIGER ROAR!!

We have had so many people donate, step up for things, give of their time, and support our Tiger team. Thank you for all of it! It has been so fun to see the community rally behind the boys. We aren't done yet, but wanted to show our gratitude for all who made this season special!
