The Northern Valley Huskies Junior High Football team took on the Western Plains Bobcats on October 1st. The Huskies were able to play decently on defense other than a few breakdowns early on, but the Bobcats were too much for the Huskies. Offensively, the Huskies couldn’t get the blocking and offensive execution they needed to make yards against a very stout Bobcat defense. The Huskies held on despite not scoring until the fourth quarter when the Bobcats completed a PAT to finish off the Huskies. The final score was 0-45.
The flag game featured the 6th graders going up against mostly the same Bobcat team. The Huskies and Bobcats played a 15-minute running clock period. The Huskies and Bobcats were both scoreless until the last minute of game time. The Bobcats struck with a big 25-yard run and a touchdown with 30 seconds remaining on a pass play. The Bobcats also fit their PAT in as well, marking a 0-7 defeat for the Huskies.
The Huskies' next game will be a flag only game in Palco on October 8th.

With the cancelation of the Norton XC Meet today due to heavy rainfall, the runners used this great weather to run the Almena Cemetery Practice Race at 4:15. Here were the results from their 5000m run.
Bryson Wilder - 24:48.77
Levi Black - 25:01.30
Jeremiah Kirkland - 32:26.86
Shelby Lentz - 32:30.08
Bryson was a surprise guest today that had some interest in XC before the season started. Levi improved his last week time by 6 minutes! Shelby improved her time by 5 minutes, and Jeremiah improved his time by 2 minutes. Tayah went to Volleyball practice this time, and Zane is out the next two weeks with a bone bruise. The XC runners had great practices this week, working on their pacing, in prep for the Norton Meet. We will build upon this for the next meet at Ness City. On October 1, girls run at 5:00 and boys at 5:45.
Thanks,
Ross Cole
