Class 1 track & field state meet day 2

Not much in the way of team results from Saturday’s class 1 state track & field meet.  Only one top 10 finish on both the boys & girls side.  Both the Liberal girls and New Covenant boys finished in sixth place overall.  But some exciting individual event titles highlighted by New Covenent’s boys 4 X [...]

I took the roadshow to Aurora last night for the class 1 district 6 boys first round.  The first game went to #5 seed Walnut Grove 64-52 over Niangua.  I only caught the last quarter, but the Tigers looked very poised and controlled as they moved on to face #1 Chadwick.

CLASS 1

District 2 at Bakersfield

Dora
Bakersfield
Bradleyville
Bunker
Lutie

Prediction:  This looks pretty clear cut.  Eminence hasn’t needed Brewer to beat Lesterville yet.  They do even better with him.
