All week long leading up to their conference battle with Dakota, the Stockton Blackhawks knew what they had to do, but being able to do it ... that was the question. "We were scared of number six (Adrian Arellano) all week," said Blackhawk head coach Matt Leitzen. "We knew how fast he was, and he hurt us with his legs." Dakota proved how fast they were as they took the opening kickoff and marched 54 yards in less than 40 seconds before fullback, Thomas Bowman, powered into the end zone from a...

For those of you who have never watched a cross-country meet, there is not much excitement as you watch kids run – just run. But, if you pay closer attention, you see the exhaustion that is unescapable; you know the legs are aching as some feel the need to simply walk in small stretches; and you can hear them gasping for breath as the lungs scream for more oxygen. No, there is very little strategy, and an offense and defense don't exist, but it is the pure endurance of the athletes which is s...
Watching the opening of the match between Scales Mound and Polo Wednesday night was like watching an episode of the Keystone Kops as balls were hit into the net, or out of bounds, players literally ran into each other, and the best one was when three players stood there and watched as a ball landed on the floor between them. "They always start slow," said head coach Keri Werner of Scales Mound. "Ever since I was coaching them back in seventh grade. I don't know why. I wish I did. They start...
During the warmup for their non-conference battle against 2A Winnebago, the Lena-Winslow Panthers were doing some "trick" plays – faking the set to the middle, only to see another middle come from behind for the kill. But aside from a back row kill in game one, they never put any of the "creative" stuff into play during the match. "Right now, a lot of that depends on our passing," said head coach Sue Amendt. "Once our passing gets stronger, I think you'll see more of that." Even without the t...
Any team on Milledgeville's schedule this season better get fitted for some track shoes and load up on the cardio in practice. The Missiles field a deep arsenal of speedsters this season and so far have turned their first two games into track meets blazing their way to huge first half leads thanks to one explosive play after another. Such was the case Friday night as they defeated the visiting Aquin Bulldogs 66-18. For the second straight week, the Missiles put up 40 points in the first half...
Coaches throughout the NUIC knew that Stockton was stronger than what they had shown in their opening contest against Forreston, and they proved it Friday night with a solid 26-6 victory over the EPC Wildcatz in Pearl City. The first half was a defensive slugfest as neither team was mounting anything resembling a scoring drive. EPC got close when they moved the ball down to the Stockton five with a first and goal, but they moved backwards on the next three plays and ended up turning the ball...

Every season there is hope and conjecture regarding which volleyball teams were the strongest, and each and every year the Oregon Tournament answers that question. With 16 1A and 2A teams from the NUIC and Big Northern, the best teams come to compete and find out where they might fit into the pecking order. When Scales Mound was dominant and finished second in the state, they opened up by winning the Oregon Tournament. The same pattern can be seen with Eastland, Dakota and Lena-Winslow. And if...
1. Lena-Winslow 2 – 0 Panthers proved that stacking the line to stop the run game won’t work, but have not been tested yet. 2. Du/Pec 2 – 0 Rivermen used special treams to knock off Forreston on the road. If they beat Fulton ... look out. 3. Fulton 2 – 0 Reality will set in this Friday when Fulton visits Du/Pec - now we’ll see just how good they are. 4. Forreston 1 – 1 Forreston got rolled at home by Du/Pec, but a lot of teams will.

Both the Orangeville Broncos and Warren Warriors opened their volleyball season on Monday night – but not at all as they would have liked. So, on Tuesday, when they met for a non -conference battle in Orangeville, both were able to walk away seeing progress. For the Broncos, they had a bitter taste left in their mouth after they had charged out to a 14-1 lead over Stockton in game one, and led in each game of the match – but still lost. "We did a lot better job of trusting each other ton...
With Pearl City clinging to a 5-4 lead in game two of their non-conference match at home against Forreston, a hard hit sent Forreston's Lily Johnson racing towards the back wall to try and make a save. She got a dig on the ball, extended her right arm to brace herself but slammed into the padded wall, jerking her shoulder backwards awkwardly and sending her down to the floor screaming in pain. A good 30 minute wait took place as the EMTs were called and tended to the Cardinal senior as the PC...
Both the Lena-Winslow Panthers and River Ridge Wildcats were able to make an early season assessment of where their respective volleyball teams stood early in the season when they squared off in a non-conference battle at River Ridge Thursday night. And following the Panther's three game 25-22, 20-25, 25-7 win, both teams could make a strong argument for being satisfied with where they stood right now. A pattern developed early in game one, and continued throughout the night. The Panthers, who...
While Gunar Lobdell was getting most of the pre-season hype for the Lena-Winslow Panthers, it was senior Gage Dunker who bulldozed his way to 94 yards and three touchdowns to lead the onslaught in a 60-6 victory that was really a lot closer than the scoreboard. The EPC Wildcatz were off to a good start. After getting the opening kickoff at their own 19, they ran a collection of runs up the middle combined with an option to either side, and had put together three first downs to move the ball to...
The 2022 Stockton Blackhawks are much better than last season's squad, but as the Forreston Cardinals proved Friday night ... there's still a long way to go. Taking on a state ranked team with a lot of strength on the front line is hard enough, but when you make far too many silly mistakes ... that's a recipe for disaster. And disaster struck the Blackhawks. A fumbled snap on the center-quarterback exchange; a fumbled hand off that lay on the ground for almost two seconds before Stockton was...
By several accounts, the Orangeville Broncos opened up the return of the Jay Doyle era with a lot of promise: the Broncos had 166 yards rushing while the Milledgeville Missiles only got 104; the Broncos threw for 46 passing yards and had more total offense than Milledgeville – 212 to 185; and although sidelined for the first three quarters for disciplinary reasons that carried over from the year before – when Blake Folgate was finally allowed to play he burst through for 68 yards and a tou...
If the rest of the season is going to be like this, Aquin Bulldogs fans better buckle their seatbelts because it could be a wild ride. In only the first game, there was a season's worth of dramatic twists and turns at Conley Field in Freeport as the Bulldogs lost a heartbreaker to the visiting West Prairie Cyclones 39-38. In fact, the game had to be decided in overtime and on the leg of the Cyclones' kicker. After the Cyclones had tied the game at 32-32 with only 25 seconds remaining, the Aquin rush forced a missed extra point and sent the...
