The varsity girls basketball team lost 61-43 against Chippewa Falls on Feb. 25, 2026 at home. Head coach Mackenzie Meneguzzo was very supportive when it came to encouraging the teammates every chance she could get. As Superior made a basket, it would result in the audience jumping from their seats and encouraging the teammates. This game ended the girls’ season.
