Congrats to our middle school cross country runners. 94% of our team hit their best running times yesterday at the middle school invitational. It was our last home meet, but our runners took charge of the course. Cayden Dell, Brogan Millen, Max Thayer, and Carson Keller placed in the top 15 for boys. Hayley Dutkiewicz, Emersyn Green, Mila Heil, Piper Surls and Sophia Zima placed in the top 15 for girls. Girls took home the 1st place trophy and Sophia Zima ran a new school record --12:03.2. Cheers to our middle school cross country team!!
Congratulations to the 8th Grade Football Team on their impressive 14-0 victory over rival Marshall! Offensively, Cooper Ledbetter made an incredible catch in the end zone for a touchdown, while Kaden Larsen added another touchdown to the scoreboard. Grady Davis converted a key 2-point conversion to help secure the win. The Beavers' defense was absolutely dominant. Every player on the defensive side of the ball was unstoppable, flying to the football, making tackles, and refusing to give Marshall any opportunities. Their outstanding effort resulted in a shutout, holding Marshall scoreless and preserving the 14-0 victory. This was a true team win, showcasing hard work, toughness, and Beaver pride from start to finish. Congratulations to the entire team on a huge rivalry win!
Thankful Thursday
