Athletics Director Josh Scouten takes a look back at the 2023-2024 fall, winter, and spring sports seasons.
The 2023-2024 USN Athletics season has come to a close. This year, many of our sports teams competed in the state playoffs and reached high levels of success. Each program marks success in various ways, aiming to compete and win at the state level. The purpose of our athletic programs is to foster a love of sports and teach lifelong lessons through training and competition. Take a look at how our high school teams performed at the regional and state levels this year. We are grateful for the leadership from the class of 2024 and wish them all the best as they leave USN. Our 2024-2025 teams are already working towards reaching similar levels of success over the summer. If you want more information on how to get involved with USN athletics or join one of our teams, contact Athletic Director Josh Scouten or Middle School Athletic Director Michael Gimblette.
