East Butler wrestlers and managers enjoyed the Husker wrestling dual.

Thanks to everyone who helped the Dwight kindergarteners try to catch their gingerbread man this month. He was spotted in Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, and Hawaii. He was also spotted in Australia and England! We enjoyed learning about each place and seeing all the silly things he was doing like sledding, surfing, and learning how to be an astronaut! Happy Holidays!

Blue River Wrestlers are at the Wahoo Invitational on Friday, December 19. Wrestling starts at 1pm in the new gym. Go Panthers!

Here is the game schedule for the holiday tournament on Monday and Tuesday.

The wrestling quad at Cross County begins at 5:00 tonight.
Congratulations to our fall Academic All-State winners!
