BARTLEY - For Homecoming, the Southwest football team put on its best show of fireworks. The Roughriders put up nearly 500 yards of offense and scored six times, but it wasn't enough as visiting Wallace left town with a 78-42 victory that closed the 'Riders season at 1-7.

EUSTIS - Things can change quite a bit in the span of six weeks. In mid-September, Hi-Line hosted Sutherland and dropped the Sailors to 0-3 with a 44-24 victory in which they ran all over the Sailors in rolling away late to victory.

ARAPAHOE - In completing an 8-0 regular season, the formula has been mostly the same for the Arapahoe football team - grab a lead early, lean on a strong and opportunistic defense and roll away to victory.

CAMBRIDGE - After each team had largely dominated their first round matchups at D1-12 Subdistrict Tournament, the Cambridge and Southwest volleyball teams squared off one final time this season for the Subdistrict title and an automatic berth in Saturday’s district final.

SUMNER - The Southwest football team dropped a 62-6 contest at Sumner-Eddyville-Miller Friday night as the Roughriders fell to 1-6 on the season.

BENKELMAN - The Cambridge football team could not have asked for better opportunities to start Thursday's regular season finale at Dundy County-Stratton.
