At their recent competition, the Troy High School Boys Water Polo team demonstrated the true spirit of sportsmanship and community. The Colts wore their work shirts with the message “Love to Grand Blanc” to show support and solidarity with the Grand Blanc Water Polo program. The gesture, made during the event, was a powerful reminder that high school sports extend beyond the scoreboard. While athletes compete fiercely in the pool, they also share bonds of respect, compassion, and unity that define what it means to be part of the athletic community. “Thank you to our boys for this gesture,” Coach Jack Johansson. “We are proud of the way our student-athletes represent not just Troy High, but the values of high school sports everywhere.” In moments like these, water polo proves to be more than a game—it becomes a platform for connection, empathy, and mutual support.
