On Friday, Feb. 17, 2017, RJSHS hosted Senior Night for the basketball season, and also included several other recognitions. At 6pm the RHS Lady Panthers challenged Dawson Springs with a victory, and between games, Senior Night was observed recognizing RHS Cheerleaders, RHS Girls Basketball, and RHS Boys Basketball. Following these recognitions, the RHS Panthers challenged South Warren also for a victory. Loreal Cheaney and Kahlia Hampton were awarded their 1000-point basketballs, Coach Phil Todd was recognized and awarded his 300 win basketball, and Coach Roger Dale Daniel was presented a plaque by Mayor Mark Stratton declaring “Roger Dale Daniel” Day in appreciation for his years of coaching and influence on students in the community! Coach Roger has been a pillar for the Russellville Community and the RJ/SHS athletic department, and he just recently retired from Russellville Parks and Recreation after 20 plus years of service.
