Delphos St. Joh's is celebrating 50 years of girls sports this year. On Sunday, January 29 the Blue Jays will hold their basketball Celebration Game hosting Lima Central Catholic at 4:00pm. Nearly 100 former coaches, players, managers, trainers, cheerleaders, etc... will return home to The Vatican to celebrate this milestone and cheer on the 50th team.
DSJ started girls sports in the 1973-74 with volleyball, basketball and track and field and the full support of the administration, staff and students. Jan Stover coached the varsity and JV of all three sports the first two years. The first basketball season the 'Jays went 0-4. There are no records for volleyball or track. The basketball program has won five state titles and has more than 700 wins in their 50 years.
Below is our first basketball team in 1974. Freshmen were not eligible for high school sports until 1976.
Celebrate YOUR girls sports teams!!!
