The Northern Valley Huskies Scholars Bowl Team finished their season at Regionals on February 1st at Beloit St. John's High School. The competition featured 11 schools in a round robin style format. The top three teams from each of the four regionals will move on to state at Hutchinson Central Catholic on February 10th. The Huskies went 7-3 on the day leaving the team in 4th place for the second consecutive year just missing the cut to head to state. The Huskies' three losses were to the three teams headed on to state.
This was a very successful season again for Northern Valley that just came up a bit short. Seniors Drew Schemper, Kenton Thalheim, Jason Cox, and Gabe Rudd as well as Junior Caden Lowry all represented the Huskies very well, especially in the last three meets of the season with a league championship, and two fourth place finishes against stiff competition.
