Cassidy Will and Tori Foster threw out two runners trying to score at home, while Cassidy Will cleaned up the rest with twelve strikeouts. Paige Will scored two runs on two hits while Gracie Rooker and Riley Bartlett each had two hits, and two RBI's. Vikings win, 5-1." -- Coach Graham

The OV-Cincinnatus Boys Varsity Baseball game v. Mater Dei, originally scheduled to be a home game on Monday, May 8 at 4:30 pm, will be held today at Cincinnatus. Because this year's baseball team is shared with Cincy, it's an opportunity for Cincy athletes to play locally.
May 8-12, 2023 is Teacher Appreciation Week, and we couldn't be more proud of Otselic Valley's educators. Their work is inspired, informed, compassionate, encouraging, and full of guidance that will benefit students long after they graduate. THANK YOU for all you do!
"Celebrate diversity, practice acceptance, and may we all choose peaceful options to conflict." -- Donzelle Michele Malone
