Orange Day

Tomorrow is the last day to order your “Dig Pink Shirt”!

 
Congratulations to our All State Chorus participants: Isaiah Kruger, Shane Nelson, Tamra Mann, Breanne Brandenburg with Tyler Johnson, Brandon Jessen, Kyla Morgan, and Maddie Vermeulen as alternates.  Their first practice will be this Wednesday at NSU.

7-12 Girls basketball meeting at 3:10 in Mr. McCain’s room.
 
5/6^th Basketball practice begins today.  All players need to get changed and report to the gym ASAP after school.
 
The Woonsocket/Wessington Springs/Sanborn Central Blackhawks traveled to Platte last Friday and came away with a 36-6 win.  The Blackhawks struck first in opening quarter on a 35 yard pass from Joe Davis to Austin Messmer.  In 2^nd quarter the Blackhawks recovered a fumble at their own 15 yard line. On the first play after fumble recovery, Austin Messmer scored on 85 yard run.  Later in 2^nd quarter Austin Messmer ran in another TD from 33 yards out.  Right before halftime, Joe Davis hit Tyler Krueger on a 63 yard TD pass to put the Blackhawks up 30-0 at halftime. Mid-way through 3^rd quarter Austin Messmer scored again a 4 yard run.  Platte-Geddes/Dakota Christian put up their only points of the night with 30 seconds left in the game.  Austin Messmer led the offense with 175 rush yards on 15 carries.  Joe Davis was 4 of 5 passing for 109 yards and 2 TDs.  Jacob Fouberg led the defense with 12 tackles.  This Friday the Blackhawks travel to Hitchcock to take on Hitchcock-Tulare for a 7:00 pm game.
 
At the JV Jamboree this weekend – they split the games.  Coach Flatten was very proud of the attitude and effort put forth by one and all.
 
Good luck to the students attending the Central Region Land Judging contest tomorrow – Garrett, Cody, Trevor, and Jarid.  We'll leave at 7:55 a.m.
