DAVENPORT-For one half, it looked like the Gorilla football team could be earning a big bounce-back win against league-leading Liberty following a setback at Lind-Ritzville/Sprague the week prior. But Lancers quarterback Jake Jeske decided that wouldn't be the case, leading Liberty to score 27 straight points in the game's final 25 minutes en route to a 41-27 Liberty victory over Davenport. Jeske accounted for all six of Liberty's touchdowns, running for three himself and thro...

REARDAN – So far in 2022, the top NE2B girls soccer teams seem to be from the two schools in northern Spokane County.

WILBUR – Last Thursday's game against the Wilbur-Creston Wildcats was projected by many to potentially be the toughest challenge Odessa faced in the regular season.

"We've got a lot of weapons and a quarterback that knows how to run the offense," Odessa head coach Jeff Nelson said. "We only gave up 20 for the game, so I...

Sophomore Brody Boness put LRS in the scoring column with a 49-yard touchdown run after Davenport was forced to punt on its opening drive. The signs of disaster became apparent for Davenport on the ensuing kickoff, when the ball t...
