On Wednesday night, the Woodland Middle School - DD4 Wolves played against Gregg Middle School. Although they didn't bring home the win, the boys still demonstrated wonderful teamwork, sportsmanship, and perseverance. They kept their heads held high showing nothing but smiles the whole time. This was their first official game of the season so we're very excited for the games to come. Their next game will be held at Woodland High School on September 18th at 6:00pm against James Island Middle School. #GoWolves! ~ Story and Photos by Bailee Johnson, a Junior and "Campus Creator" at Woodland High School.

The Woodland Middle School - DD4 Lady Wolves may not have secured a win last night, but they showcased a strong team spirit and looked sharp in their brand-new uniforms.

Their next challenge awaits at Alston Middle School on Monday at 6 p.m. #GoWolves
