Athletics
Capron offered the boys sports of baseball, football, and basketball while the girls participated in GAA activities. The
Capron Vikings may not have won any IHSA hardware, but we are sure there were many successful seasons over
the years. If you have any information on the sports program at CHS please write to us so we may share it with others.
