Marion Local was crowned as the Division IV state champion for the second straight season on Saturday following a 23-25, 25-18, 25-22 and 25-14 victory over Jackson Center at the Ervin J. Nutter Center. [More]
LEWISTOWN - The momentum St. Marys had in the first half of its Division III regional semifinal came tumbling down quickly.
After scoring 12 points in the first quarter and moving the ball well through the first half, Big Walnut clamped down in the second half, allowing the Golden Eagles to come back and end the Roughriders' season with a 17-12 win at Indian Lake Stadium in Lewistown. [More]
