Trump sign waved in student section as predominantly black basketball team introduced

The Warrensburg School District has apologized after one of its students displayed a Donald Trump sign during player introductions for the Center High School boys basketball team on Monday night.

The Center varsity roster has 13 players, all of whom are either black or biracial, according to coach LeDale Wooten.

Toniaa Lakylia Nunn, a former Center student, posted video of the pregame at Warrensburg High School on her Facebook page Monday evening.

In the video, the majority of the Warrensburg student section turned its backs to the court as the Center players were being introduced. One student held up a blue Donald Trump and Mike Pence campaign sign. The students were dressed as farmers as part of a theme night.
