Two former EHS basketball standouts took to the floor at the AHS gym last Tuesday…as referees! Trevor Gruis and Casey Schilling were the officials for the Adrian vs HBC boys game. They can still run up and down the court like teenagers! How time passes and life changes, but it is wonderful these two guys can still enjoy the game, just from a different perspective.
