Mason County will honor its seniors and three teams from the past on Senior Night Friday night at The Fieldhouse. The Lady Royals will host the Montgomery County Lady Indians in the first game at 6 p.m. The Royals play the Bryan Station Defenders in the second game. The Senior Night ceremony and presentations by the JROTC and the Mason County Choir will take place between games.

The 1975-76 squad, coached by Bob Hutchison, won the 39th District Tournament and the 10th Region Tournament for the school's first trip to the state tournament. The Lady Royals advanced to the semifinals of the 1976 state tournament and ended the season with a 23-5 record.
Mason County's first boys' team will be introduced at halftime of the boys' game. The 1960-61 Royals, coached by William "Teence" Ryan had a 24-4 record and won the 39th District Tournament.
