As the spring sports season at high schools around the country wrapped up, the national average price of diesel fuel (on which many team buses run) hovered around $4.50 per gallon, according to the Oil Price Information Service. Regular unleaded was at $3.80 per gallon and eventually topped $4 — spelling trouble for A.C. Reynolds' teams, many of which regularly spend four hours traveling to and from conference games. Last year, combined travel expenses for the Rockets' {varsity and non-varsity athletic teams} reached $50,000.

Reference:
In the United States and Canada, varsity sports teams are the principal athletic teams representing a college, university, high school or other secondary school. Such teams compete against the principal athletic teams at other colleges/universities, or in the case of secondary schools, against other secondary schools. Groups of varsity sports teams are often organized into athletic conferences, which are groups of teams that regularly play each other during a given athletic season. In recognition of their high level of performance, athletes on varsity teams are often given varsity letters.
