Addison Bostwick recently cheered her final event as a Ponca Cheerleader, and we just want to say… thank you.
Being our lone senior is no small thing. It takes leadership, resilience, and a whole lot of heart. Addison has shown up to every game, every performance, and every moment with pride and positivity. She’s been a steady voice on the sidelines, a role model to younger teammates, and a true representation of Ponca spirit.
Addison, your energy and commitment have not gone unnoticed. You’ve left your mark on this program, and Ponca Cheer is better because of you.
We are so proud of you and excited to see what’s next. 💙✨

The Boys Basketball season comes to an end tonight with a 37–51 loss to Crofton.
While the outcome wasn’t what we hoped for, the team competed hard and represented our school with pride until the final buzzer. We are proud of their effort, growth, and the resilience they showed all season long.
We also want to recognize our lone senior, Mickenon Peterson. Mickenon has been a steady leader in our program—competing with intensity, leading by example, and always putting the team first. His dedication and work ethic have made a lasting impact.
Mickenon, thank you for everything you’ve given to this program. We are proud of you and excited to see what’s ahead. 💙🏀

The journey continues! The boys grab a 57-43 win over LCC to advance. They will take on Crofton Thursday at 7:00 in Crofton.
Go Big Ponca Blue!

The road to state begins tonight! The boys will take on LCC at 7:30 in Crofton!
Good luck players and coaches!
