🏀 A Slam Dunk from the Past!

For this week’s #ThrowbackThursday, we’re cracking open the pages of the 1959 Northern Lites yearbook to celebrate our Varsity Basketball team! 📸

The shoes have changed. The three-point line didn’t exist. Same pride. Same tradition. Northern Lites memories-timeless.

Special Recognition Night at Hardin Northern! 🏈

Join us on Saturday night, January 10th, as Hardin Northern Boys Basketball takes the home court for an exciting game, and a very special moment of recognition.

We will be honoring our 2002 Hardin Northern Football State Runner-Up team for their incredible achievement and lasting impact on our school and community. These athletes represent Hardin Northern pride, hard work, and tradition, and we’re excited to celebrate them together.

Come out, cheer on the Bears, as we honor a team and an accomplishment that will always be remembered at Hardin Northern. Reserve game starts at 4:00 p.m. and the recognition will be prior to the Varsity game.

Motivation Monday!
“The expert in anything was once a beginner.”

Every champion started as a rookie. Every skilled artist, athlete, or student once said, “I don’t know how.” Bears-don’t be afraid to start. Ask questions, try new things, and give yourself grace as you grow.

Have a great week!
