For the first time in the history of Louisa Middle School, the Quick Recall team has advanced to State. The Quick Recall team defeated Boyd County, lost to Russell, Defeated Ashland, Defeated Rowan County, Defeated Raceland and finally played Russell again in the Regional Championship. The team lost to Russell but advances to State Governor’s Cup as the Region 18 runners-up.
Also, for the first time, Louisa Middle School placed #2 overall after placing fourth the last two years in a row. Russell was the number one team in the region.
