RITZVILLE - The Reardan football team came to town Friday, Oct. 13 to face the Lind-Ritzville/Sprague Broncos in a crucial 2023 Homecoming matchup and came away with a shutout victory 25-0. LRS's high-octane offense has sputtered in recent weeks because of injuries sustained by running backs Brody Boness and Brock Kinch, both of whom watched the game from the sidelines. The Screaming Eagles showed they were ready to play when Hunter Flaa returned the opening kickoff to the...
COLFAX - In the final cross country meet of the season for middle schoolers and the last opportunity for high schoolers before regionals, it was the Davenport high school girls finishing with the highest marks of any local school at the 1B/2B League Championships at Colfax Golf Club Friday, Oct. 13. The Gorilla high school girls finished second with 72 points, behind only St. George's. Reardan's middle school boys took third in their division behind Chewelah and Colfax at 72...

Because of injuries, Reardan juniors Reagan Board and Mackenzie Bjornberg watched from the bench as their nine teammates squared off against a NWC...
DAVENPORT - The Pateros Billygoats came into town last weekend searching for their first win of the season after five straight losses to open the 2023 season.

On Davenport's first play from scrimmage, Brock Gustaveson took the ball up the middle on a 60-yard run before finishing off the...
REARDAN - What had all the makings of a satisfying Homecoming/Senior Night win for the Screaming Eagles quickly turned into a disappointing loss after Asotin scored its second touchdown of the fourth quarter with less than a minute to play to secure the Panthers' 14-13 win Friday, Oct. 6. Early in the game, Reardan's defense played rock-solid. Asotin's opening drive ended on a Rysen Soliday tackle that jarred the ball loose from a Panther ball carrier and into the hands of...
