The Winter Sports Season Is In Full Swing

This past week the busiest high school sports season got fully underway.  Every team in the county competed in their respective sport, many with multiple competitions.  Girls basketball was the first winter sport to begin, starting just prior to Thanksgiving.  With some games already under their belts the Lady Cardinals and Lady Grizzlies each hit the road to play in some early season tournaments.  Grace took part in the Bulldog Challenge in Ririe while Soda Springs made the long trip to southern Utah to play in the Desert Hills Holiday Classic in St. George.  North Gem’s Lady Cowboys also saw action last week as they were joined by their boys team in playing two double header games.  The Grizzly’s boys team also opened their season last week with a pair of games as did the Cardinal’s boys team.  Finally all three schools saw their wrestlers get their first action of the season with the Cardinals making two road trips during the week and the Grizzlies hosting a girls tournament on Friday and duals on Saturday which North Gem attended.  Needless to say it was a very busy week for our student athletes and we did our best to see as many of them as possible and track down as many results as we could.  It is a great time of year to be a high school sports fan and we are lucky to have three schools in such close proximity to enjoy watching these young athletes.  Get out and support them as much as you possibly can.  It should be a fun season for all.
