Verona’s First High School Sport

Date:

Share post:

Verona is a town that revolves around youth sports. Beginning in elementary school, we have teams for football, soccer, basketball, baseball, softball, wrestling and lacrosse. There’s a summer (and soon-to-be high school) team for swimming. In middle school, we add options for hockey and running, and golf and tennis teams in high school. We have sport fields and gyms at every one of our six schools. At the Verona Community Center, there are four more fields and a basketball court .

But how did it all get started? Which sport came first? See if you can correctly answer this poll:
