The team from Hermantown posted five of the top 10 scores in the conference for week four, but still could not make any ground on the NRHEG High School clay target squad.

Led by top conference shooter Frank Altrichter, NRHEG was able to put a little more distance between these two teams and put themselves in a solid lead going into the last week of competition.

Panthers open section tourney at TCU

It hasn’t been an easy fall season for coach Onika Peterson and the NRHEG volleyball team, and the struggle continued last week.

The Panthers hosted a pair of matches to finish the regular season and lost 3-0 to Kenyon-Wanamingo on Monday and 3-1 to United South Central on Tuesday.

The Panthers fell to 1-7 in the Gopher Conference, 9-16 overall.

“We have been competing the last couple games,” said Peterson. “We just haven’t been able to pull out the win.”

The NRHEG cross country teams hosted the Gopher Valley Conference Meet at New Richland’s Riverview Golf Course Tuesday, Oct. 14.

Martin County West won the boys’ title with 23 points, followed by LCWM/Nicollet at 83, Mankato Loyola 85, Blooming Prairie 119, Maple River 146, WEM/JWP 156, United South Central 159, NRHEG 208, Medford 233 and Madelia-Truman 249.

Junior Tyler Schlaak, as he has all season, led the Panthers. He finished 28th in 18:45. Following for NRHEG: Zach Mely, 37th, 19:28; Josh Fleming, 42nd, 20:06; Ben Lewer, 49th, 20:38; Brenden McMann, 52nd, 21:03; Aaron Seath, 52nd, 22:53; Orin Mely, 65th, 24:47.
