Wolverines pounce early, throttle Spartans

Dike-New Hartford scored 19 of the first 21 points and never looked back in last Thursday night’s non-conference tilt with Grundy Center, coasting to a 69-45 win over the Spartans.
           
“Our whole goal was to get a fast start and try and set it with defense and tempo, and I thought we did a pretty good job,” D-NH coach Greg Moore said. “We had some defensive lapses, but overall, I thought we played pretty well.”
           

Spartan girls escape nail-biter with Wolverines

“Everybody stepped up at different times and played a key role in this win. It was nice to finish that,” Grundy Center coach Matt Lindeman said. “We didn’t play real well, but we found a way to win.”

Salvation Army looks to grow in Grundy County

During the holiday season, the Salvation Army has become a ubiquitous presence across the country: the organization is known for placing bell ringers outside of major shopping centers, and it got a national plug last Sunday when Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott jumped into a life-size kettle on the field after scoring a touchdown. What people may not know, however, is that the Salvation Army actually has a chapter in Grundy County, and local representative Jane Katzer of rural Conrad is hoping to increase its outreach to help more families in need.

Comets take home third straight cheer dance title

A tradition of excellence continues for the cheerleading program at BCLUW High School, as the Comets took home their third straight title in the cheer dance category for their routine at the state championships in Des Moines on Saturday, November 5.
           
After winning in Class 1A the last two years, BCLUW bumped up to 2A and won again, besting 12 other schools in their class for the top prize. The Comets also had one stunt group win first place, and another took second. For coach Kelly Trinkle, winning a championship is just as sweet every year.
