Update: School District Committed to Sportsmanship

The School District of University City and Normandy School District issued a joint statement Tuesday about the potential of a 'locked down' game.

On Monday, Fox 2 reported that a potential basketball playoff game between University City High School and district rival Normandy could have taken place under lockdown. The "locked down" game was averted when U City lost a game to Mary Institute and St. Louis Country Day School (MICDS) Monday night On Tuesday, the districts released a joint statement regarding the potential basketball game.   The statement reads: While we will not be paired against each other in basketball playoff contests this year, our athletes and the spectators who come to support them are committed to displaying sportsmanship-like behavior when they interact with each other.

Fox 2: U City/Normandy Game Would Have Been Played Without Student Fans

A feud between the two schools would have lead to the game being played under a lockdown.

A long running feud between University City High School and district rival Normandy nearly led to a state basketball playoff game taking place under lockdown, according to Fox 2. The game would have been played without fans and with only direct parents of players being allowed inside. The potential game between the two was averted when U City lost a game to Mary Institute and St. Louis Country Day School (MICDS) Monday night. There have been scrapes between the schools for years, and there was a fight on the court between the teams in the 2011-2012 season, but the final straw came in December, Fox 2 reports. U City played a game at Normandy, and afterward, officials say their buses were attacked by Normandy students as they left campus. “…

Walker's 4 TDs Too Much To Overcome For U. City In District Championship Loss To Clayton

Senior running back/linebacker Tyler Walker scored four times and nabbed a last-second interception to thwart U. City's final comeback attempt.

CLAYTON — In the end, Clayton just had too much Tyler Walker. Although the senior running back/linebacker stands just 5'7, and weighs 160 pounds soaking wet, he proved too much to handle Monday night at Centene Stadium, as University City valiantly fought, but couldn't get past the Greyhounds, in a 27-20 Class 4 District 5 championship game loss. Clayton, which is now 9-3 on the year, advances to play Jefferson City Helias in the state quarterfinals on Saturday. Helias pounded Hannibal (MO) on Monday, and will be the host team when it meets the Greyhounds at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday. U. City finished its year with a 6-6 record, but will go into the offseason lamenting its missed chances against Clayton on Monday. The Lions were stopped on a …
