Between the JCHS boys and girls games, the coaching staff took the time to honor Bobby Gann, a true Patriot for life. For many years, Gann, who recently passed away, would be at half court at all JCHS Basketball games, and also was in attendance for all JCHS Football games. A plaque created just for Gann was presented to his family, which included his wife Alberta, son David, and his grandchildren.
