Yesterday, the high school Knowledge Bowl team travelled to Eads to compete in the Regional Meet. They had a great showing where they took 2nd place in 1A after a tie breaker round. They will soon learn if they earned enough points to complete at the State level after the other regions complete their meets.

At today's basketball game vs Manzanola, the officials will be "passing the bucket for change".
You will notice that the officials will be wearing either pink or white whistles. This is part of a two week-long, nationwide effort-"Officials versus Cancer" Campaign designed to raise the awareness of cancer. If you haven't been touched by cancer, chances are you will be someday, either personally or through a loved one, friend, or a colleague who may catch this deadly disease.

On behalf of those affected by this, the American Cancer Society, Officials vs. Cancer, the Colorado high school basketball official's association and all officials from around the country we would like to thank everyone for joining in this fight against cancer!
