Holy Cross Catholic High School hosts first homecoming game

MIDLAND The Holy Cross Catholic High School Crusaders will compete against Dell City in their first homecoming game on Saturday. The Crusaders come into the game with 2 wins and 1 loss. During halftime, they will celebrate their first home coming court at 2:30 p.m. Saturday at Astound Broadband Stadium.

Holy Cross Catholic High School is in its fourth year of instruction and is the only Catholic high school in the Permian Basin, serving freshmen-seniors. Each year the school has grown in enrollment and is excited to have 66 students enrolled this school year, a news release said.

Along with increased enrollment comes growing programs, such as football, volleyball, basketball, track, guitar, Student Council, Honor Society and much more. Holy Cross challenges each student to live as a Christian witness in service to others, forming young men and women spiritually, academically, socially, and physically. The school accepts all walks of faith and welcomes the community to come see their campus and learn more about all Holy Cross has going on.

This is the school’s first year to participate as part of the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS) in sports. The school’s goal is to build and develop a competitive sports program, so becoming a member of TAPPS was a step in the right direction. The students have great spirit and bring a great sense of sportsmanship to every game.
