(Wanatah, IN) - A local high school girls’ basketball team will soon play on the same court as the Indiana Fever and, perhaps, meet Caitlyn Clark.

 

The team from Tri-Township was invited to play against another high school team from Indiana at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

 

The players were also invited to stay and watch the Indiana Fever game that evening.

 

Tri Township Schools Superintendent Dr. Pamela Moore said she’s not sure if meeting Clark will happen for the players, but just competing on her home court and staying for the game should be thrilling.

 

“It’s pretty unique,” she said.

 

Clark has been out for nearly two weeks with a muscle strain in her leg but could return prior to the WNBA game on June 17.

 

Tri-Township will play Rising Sun from the southern part of the state at 2 p.m. 

 

Moore said the girls’ coach and the high school athletic director working connections with the Fever were able to make the event possible for the players.
