Cross Country teams making history!! Girls for the first time finished 2nd as a team at Regionals and are headed to State. The boy’s team finish is being reviewed by KSHSAA and looks like a close win for 3rd as a team and hopefully will also be headed to State! 1st time for the Dragons to be taking both girl’s and boy’s teams to State!!! This was all done on a very tough, MUDDY course. They got over 3” of rain early this morning here! Way to go Dragons. So proud of all of you! Congratulations Mrs Spade who missed her own induction activities into the Softball Hall of Fame to be here with her athletes.
Big win for the Dragons over Washington County on a last second touchdown pass last night to finish regular season play at 4-4.
