The graduates deserved it! Big thanks to @IGHSAU @IHSAA and Drake for being so supportive and allowing us to do it.

Definitely one of the coolest things at state track today: @PellaActivities athletes getting their diplomas on the field after events ended. Missed their graduation to compete at state; board member and AD there to present diplomas. Well done! 👏🏻 #schoolbasedactivities

Chase Lauman wins the 3200 at Drake Relays and gets back to Pella as our home meet finishes and stays to help Stephen Gaul and Aren Hellbusch clean up the entire infield. We appreciate you guys!

The best part is that 10+ of these students (non-wrestlers) stayed after the games to help turn the gym around for our wrestling tournament tomorrow. These students aren’t successful by chance - it’s the little things and the team mentality.

Congratulations to Jesse Jablonski on his 200th varsity baseball win as Head Baseball Coach at Pella High School. This happened on Monday night in Game 2 against Newton. A well-deserved milestone for both Jesse and the Pella Baseball program! Many more to come.

Keep your head up & hope alive spring students. I know the recent news from the State of Iowa to close schools until April 30 is disheartening and frustrating! We miss you and can't wait to see you again! Keep training (socially distant of course) and keep supporting each other!

Another great event in the books. Very few people know what it takes to make an event like a 3A State Qualifying XC Meet go off with zero issues. Thank you to all the workers behind the scenes who made this a perfect event today. Our community support is the best!

This is an incredible story! Two season-ending injuries the last 2 football seasons requiring surgery both times at this same stadium and he turns around and wins the 400m hurdles before he graduates. Very, very few kids could do this and Reece deserves this!

A remarkable comeback story gets better for Reece Thoreson of @PellaDutchXC. At the same stadium he severely injured his knee twice in football, he has qualified for state in the 400 hurdles in his 4th time running it this season. Gage with a strong 2nd place. #iahstrk
