SCISAC tournaments have a history of providing outstanding competition, sportsmanlike conduct, and an extraordinary capacity to generate emotionally powerful and shared experiences for each athlete. There will be some intense and exciting games played over the course of the tournament by athletes who are prepared to win.

I look forward watching student athletes that are dedicated to excellence and the excitement this will bring to each game. Again, welcome to XIS and enjoy the tournament.
