They also learned that Glidden-Ralston will not be returning to finish the ‘rain out’ game, so they also grabbed the win for that too. They will play Saydel in Stuart Thursday night, as a pick [...]

…Talk Like a Pirate Day! Arrgghh!
So a pirate walks into a bar, okay, and swaggers up to the barkeep and demands a glass of rum. I believe his exact words were “Your rum or your life, dog, what’ll it be?”.

Good luck to the girls tonight when they take on Coon Rapids-Bayard. The Cats are currently 3-1 overall and are 2-0 and tied for 1st in the conference. Their strong play is led by Traci Scheloski who is 67/67  from the serving line.

*The Good - WCV’s defense was great. They made every big play that they needed to including a huge goal line stand in the second quarter and a big 4th down stop with a minute to go in the game. They also returned an interception for what ended up being the game-winning touchdown.
*The Bad - [...]
