The
#12
has always meant a lot to our program, now it means even more. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Pryor family and the Boonville community.
Today we will be showing our support of the Pryor family with the softball community. Please join us and other schools in turning your field lights on from 5p-11p (or for a period of 12 minutes in that time to represent Ashton’s
#12
if you can’t get full time approved).
Tonight was about more than softball. Thank you again to everyone who bought fundraiser shirts from us this year - allowing us to help support
#AP12
! Also, happy birthday

Perfectly said. Thank you just isn’t enough for the level of dedication to this school and it’s athletic programs. The posts from the Castle community today says it all.
Will miss that “Let’s Go Castle!” that you could hear at nearly every single Castle sporting event.
It has been difficult to come up with the words to express the loss that Castle High School experienced today. There just aren’t enough words to adequately describe what Fred Bracher means to CHS and the community. He will be dearly missed by everyone whose life he impacted.
Our season ended today, but these memories will last a lifetime! Thank you seniors and good luck in the future! Good luck to all other players in the summer and in their fall/winter sports! Before you know it, it will be March and we can’t wait!

Her coach says she might be the purest hitter he's had. And if you watch her, it will be difficult not to come away impressed. The evidence came this spring.
Jackie Lis of Castle is the Courier & Press All-Metro softball Player of the Year.
Tough way to end. Very proud of our team and the family they chose to be this year. A great group of kids who bought in and chose to do things the right way. Couldn’t do any of it without a great group of seniors, a special thank you to

Castle football history was made last night. Aleyna Quinn became the first female ever to suit up for the Knights and here is her first point of many to come.
@Castle_Football
Heck of a game tonight to start conference play! JV followed it up with a 15-1 win too!
Big shoutout to the great crowd tonight, thank you for your support. We greatly appreciate it!
Jackie Lis blasts one to right field to give the Dawgs an early lead!
With 13 home runs on the season, Lis now holds the most ever in a single-season by a Saluki freshman 👏
