Campus Chatter, February 22, 1929

Sugar Land High School published a student newspaper in the late 1920s called Campus Chatter. They published this edition on February 22, 1929 - 81 years ago. You'll see the big news was the Boys County Basketball Tournament played in Richmond the week before. The previous issue says Sugar Land was favored to win, but they lost their first game against Beasley. (Four teams participated: Richmond, Rosenberg, Sugar Land, and Beasley. Richmond was the winner.)

You'll also notice an article about a girl's basketball game to be played that week in Sugar Land. I can't figure out where the boys and girls teams played their home games. Sugar Land didn't build a gym until 1932. They may have played outside on the tennis court. Also note the girls basketball team was not called the Alligators. They were known as the 'Devils'!!
