SANBORN CENTRAL E-NEWS
Condolences are extended to the Seitz family with the

Senska with the passing of their uncle, Bob Ellingson.
The Woonsocket/Wessington Springs/Sanborn Central
Blackhawks fell to 2-4 on the year last Friday as they were defeated by
Hitchcock-Tulare 6-42 in Hitchcock. The Blackhawks found themselves behind 0-28
midway through the 2nd quarter before they scored on a 49 yard run by Trevor
Easton. The Blackhawks had a couple of other scoring chances, but were unable
to capitalize. Trevor Easton led the offense with 96 yards rushing on 12
carries. Todd Stekl was 5-12 passing for 61 yards. Defensively, Austin Messmer
had 14 tackles and Blake Mesmer had 10 tackles. Next action for the Blackhawks
is this Friday, October 5 as they host Wolsey-Wessington in Wessington Springs
for the Wessington Springs homecoming.
This game will air on KOKK.
From Mr. Gross: Sanborn Central FFA's own Josh Feiner and
Cordell Nicholson were two of 140 SD FFA members from 47 FFA chapters to
earn an FFA jacket through the South Dakota FFA Foundation Blue Jackets: Bright
Futures Program. Jackets were sponsored by various individuals through
the SD FFA Foundation program designed to give young SD FFA members a chance to
earn their own FFA jacket instead of purchasing one. FFA members filled
out the Blue Jackets Bright Futures FFA Jacket Program application, answering
four short essay questions about their FFA experience and goals. Congrats
Josh and Cordell!
From Tracy Moody: A huge THANK YOU to everyone from Sanborn
Central and Woonsocket who helped with the volleyball tournaments and the
concession stands this past week! You have no idea how appreciative
I am for the volunteers that helped me to survive this past week, what a great
showing of community support! Thanks again.
