2 big wins in Sylvan tonight. Game one 15-5 two 20-13. Second game was tight until we had a big top of the 7th.
Look at this, triple, double and single dingers on the night. Hannah Schiel Kaydawn Haag Taylor Seibel. T got her first of her career.
Ellis Track and Field has another excellent outing this last Friday at Hill City. With 18 teams present the competition was stiff and probably the most difficult they would see until Regionals. Of those 18 teams, Girls came in 2nd, with Boys in 7th. We had dozens of personal records and one javelin throw within a foot of the school record! The track team has another short turnaround as we head to Plainville tomorrow (4/18/23).
