Seems like the Merrillville Pirates are not wasting a one moment of time to start this season with a Midnight Madness opening practice tonight with the team and their parents followed by a second practice on Monday after school!

Ditto on that wingnut. I can't imagine any AD or principal allowing this. I know that technicly it's Monday, but this seems to push the IHSAA's stance on Sundays also.

This is M-ville's second MM, while Gary West Side has been doing it for years. Although you are up late, I would say that none of the kids mind, and I'm sure it's not the first or last time they'll be up past midnight on a school night.
I say why not have a little excitement to start the season. Merrillville has a lot to be excited about!

Ditto RRR's remarks, the school is behind the new tradition at Merrillville and the girls know they cannot be absent or tardy for ANY classes on Monday or they will lose the first quarter of their first game.
It is fun and exciting for the team and the parents and the girls also learn to be disciplined with their time over the weekend in preparation of the event!
