The first week of official competition went off pretty well for the NRHEG clay target yeam. Back for a third season, the team this year is fielding 22 shooters. The team ranges in ages from a few students in 6th grade to a small group of seniors and everything in between.
There are only two girls on the team this year, which is down from years past, but they are both very good shooters. Competing in Conference 6A, the team faces opponents from Brainerd, Woodbury, Cretin-Derham Hall, Kenyon-Wanamingo, LeSeur-Henderson, and Wadena-Deer Creek High schools each week. Competitions are never head to head.

The NRHEG girls’ track and field came home with the championship trophy from the Blue Earth Area Invitational last Friday.
The Panthers won with 98.5 points, followed by Osakis with 93, GHEC/MT/ML 86.5, St. Peter 82.5, MCW 61, BEA 56.5 and LCWM 48.
“What an absolutely perfect night for a meet,” said coach Duey Ferber. “The weather was spot on! Our girls competed well. It’s amazing what 75 degrees can do to a track team; everyone was having fun and competing hard!”
Carlie Wagner led the Panthers with a pair of firsts, clearing 5-2 in the high jump and clocking 26.96 seconds in the 200. Wagner was second in the 100. Freshman Katharine Lewer won the 1600 in 5:57.57 and was third in the 3200 in 13:24.03.

There will come a time this spring when the NRHEG softball team will dearly miss Jade Schultz.
But Monday was not that day.
With their star sidelined after knee surgery, the Panthers continued their mostly strong play this spring by sweeping Faribault Academies in a doubleheader at Legion Field.
The Panthers won the first game, a conference contest, 6-5, rallying from a 3-1 deficit with five runs in the top of the fifth inning.
“We finally started getting some hits strung together in the fifth,” said coach Wendy Schultz. “We had five solid hits into the outfield, hitting some gaps.”
