May 22, 2026- High School East has faced off against their Unified Sports peers at High School North in games of kickball and flag football. They've competed against other Unified schools in the area. But they've never before challenged school and district administrators. Until today.

Billed as the "ultimate showdown," the Raiders squad of Unified players faced off against High School East administrators and district leaders in a competitive game of kickball at East.

"Expect big kicks, bold plays, lots of laughs, and a whole lot of school spirit as our athletes and peers show what teamwork is all about," promised the pre-game promotional campaign. So, did the students bring the heat, or did the adults pull off the upset? Maybe the photos, courtesy of Allison Goodwin below, will tell the story. OR, you can watch the actual game, also below, via video courtesy of the crew at TRSTV.

(Spoiler alert: It looks like everybody won.)
