REARDAN–Top-notch defense was on display Oct. 20, as the soccer teams from Reardan and Davenport played to a scoreless tie until Gorillas' freshman Glenna Soliday drilled a ball into the Screaming Eagles' net with less than one minute to play in the game. Davenport's offense spent much of the night at Reardan's end of the field. Its relentless attack kept Reardan goalkeeper Jaylee Abrahamson on her toes as she stopped shot after shot until Soliday's late game heroics. "I s...
DAVENPORT—A journey of finding a medical insurance plan that commissioner Scott Hutsell referred to as a “merry-go-round” appears to be nearing its end. The commissioners motioned and approved a move to PEB for county medical insurance Wednesday morning, Oct. 26 after a week-long discussion that included consideration of remaining self-funded. “This has been a whirlwind of looking at different things and strategizing,” commissioner Rob Coffman said Wednesday. Last week, the commissioners indicated to the county’s unions that...

DAVENPORT—Before this season, now-former head coach Justin Young promised that the Gorillas would be leaning on quarterback Jaeger Jacobsen’s passing ability more heavily this season. While the passing game was more prominent in the season’s first five games than it had been in years prior, it was the first game under new leadership that Jacobsen’s right arm was the biggest key to Davenport’s victory. Davenport built a big lead and held on to beat the Colfax Bulldogs...
