Best of luck to the three volleyball teams as they complete their Rocky View league seasons this week, with playoffs. Best of luck to all teams.

FOOTBALL

The football team finished the season on a strong note, despite a tough loss, 22-20, to the WH Croxford Cavaliers. They had a great start to the game with Dakota Konschuh returning the opening kickoff 82 yards for a touchdown. The boys were down 22-7 in the 4th quarter when they mounted a furious comeback. Nathan Porterfield scored on a 19 yard touchdown pass from Dakota on a trick play. Dakota completed the best game of his career with a 22 yard touchdown on an interception, to close the gap to 22-20. The defense held up and the offense made some big plays to give the team a chance to win the game. With 17 second left the team had a field goal blocked to end the game. It was a tough finish but the boys played their hearts out. Best of luck to the 15 graduating seniors. You will be tough to replace. Thanks to all the coaches and parents for all of your work with the season. Next up for the team is the windup awards night to be held later in November.
