Athletics
Rosamond High School offered athletics to its students. We know of boys basketball being offered. Though
there is no mention of any athletics from Rosamond HS on the IHSA website (
www.ihsa.org). Were there others?
Other activities such as chorus were also part of the Rosamond experience as well. If you have any information
about the athletic program or any other achievements at Rosamond High please contact us via the information below.
Boys Basketball
A great fan of the Glory Days site, Jamie Driskill, offered this bit of IHSA historical information
on Rosamond High School boys basketball:
"In doing some tedious checking of the IHSA site, I did find that a game between Rosamond High
School and Lakewood High School ranks fifth in Illinois High School history for the
fewest points scored in a boys baskerball game. Rosamond 3 pts and Lakewood 2 pts. The
date given was Dec. 18, 1926."
According to Imogene's memories mentioned earlier on the page, Rosamond "had a great
basketball team in 1946 when they were led by the "3 B's" as the students said: Barnes, Burch, Barry."
