The NRHEG volleyball team completed the toughest part of its schedule last week and, about the only thing you can say is, it could have been worse. But not much.

The Panthers, who fell 3-0 at Waterville the previous week, were blanked by the Gopher Conference’s other top teams, Blooming Prairie and Bethlehem Academy.

Coach Onika Peterson’s Panthers saw their record fall to 1-6 in the conference and 9-14 overall.

The NRHEG cross country teams competed in the United South Central Invitational at Freeborn’s Oak View Golf Course Tuesday, Oct. 7.

LaCrescent won the boys’ meet with 25 points, followed by USC with 65, Blooming Prairie 69 and NRHEG 93.

For the Panthers: Tyler Schlaak, ninth, 18:43; Zach Mely, 17th, 19:43; Josh Fleming, 19th, 20:00; Brenden McMann, 23rd, 20:30; Ben Lewer, 25th, 20:41; Aaron Seath, 33rd, 22:19.

Things get out of hand as NRHEG rolls

The NRHEG High School football team has experienced some frustration since week two of the 2014 season.

The Panthers unleashed some of it at Winthrop last Friday, blowing out the GFW Thunderbirds 60-14 to snap a four-game losing skid.

“Our guys played hard tonight,” said NRHEG head coach Dan Stork. “Our offensive and defensive lines controlled the game from start to finish.”
