CLASS 4

At Hammons Student Center, Springfield

Girls – Webb City 57, St. James 36

Last year, the key to beating Webb City was to beat their press and stop Kaitlin Jaeger.  But as Webb City displayed Saturday against St. James, even if you do hold Jaeger down this year, you’re still likely to get smoked.  Balanced scoring [...]

Dadeville

Dora
Fair Play
Niangua

Considered: Bakersfield, Walnut Grove, Wheatland

So far Dadeville has done nothing to disappoint, they look as good as expected.  Jordan Stauffer has TJ looking even better than expected as they continue to overpower teams.  Dora has torn through the Koshkonong Tournament, Koshkonong, & Couch so far.  Fair Play already owns a [...]

At the barbershop – summer edition

Ah, summer.  Time to head to the barbershop for a flattop or buzz cut so you can be cool and sunburn your scalp.  Time for vacation in June, fireworks in July, & back to school shopping in August.  Hittin’ the swimming pool or fishin’ hole.  And when I was young, more than anything, summer meant [...]
