MLEC hosts basketball halftime event to support local senior classes

(February 27, 2026) — Meriwether Lewis showed its support for local high school senior classes by hosting a basketball halftime relay called “Every Shot Matters.” The competition came to Perry County High School on Friday night, where Perry County Senior Rhyder Sellers made a layup, a free throw and a 3-pointer before the buzzer. By winning the timed event, he earned a $500 donation to the class of 2026.
