The Triton team is set to include Mr. Riffle (elementary principal), Mr. Ross (high school Assistant Principal), Mr. Van Houten (elementary Administrative Assistant), Mr. McIntyre (Athletic Director), Coach Heckaman (girls basketball), Coach Groves (boys basketball), Coach Rettinger (Cross Country), Coach Brown (Football/Wrestling), Coach Faulkner (girls basketball), Nurse Newman, Mrs. Watkins (6th grade teacher), Mrs. McFarland (6th grade teacher), Mrs. Waymouth (Jr/Sr HS teacher), Mrs. Davis (Jr/Sr HS teacher), Miss Westphal (HS Art teacher), Miss Stout (HS FACS teacher), Mrs. Kaufman (HS teachers aide) and more names to be announced later.

The Wizards Show basketball team was formed in 1962.  The group, like the Harlem Globetrotters, travels the World entertaining fans. Since its inception, the Wizards team (made up of former college players) has played over 6,000 games on five different continents and in 22 different countries.
