Piper BanningLast Monday and Tuesday were big for the Boys varsity soccer team with a win 6-0 versus Priest River on Monday and the very next day, slammed Orofino 5-1 on the Maniacs home field.  Way to go, boys!

Tuesday, both JV and Varsity volleyball teams overtook Lakeside 3-0 for JV and 3-0 for Varsity.

On Friday the girls volleyball teams traveled to Kalispell, Montana for a day full of matchups against Stillwater Christian.  Our Varsity team won 3-1 and JV also was victorious against them at 3-2 but sadly the Freshman team fell to Stillwater Christian 0-3.

Friday night lights, Boys varsity football for the win.  After last week’s heartbreaking loss at homecoming … We have VICTORY! The Badgers Varsity football team pulled out the win last night against the Lakeside Knights. They came out from a 12-0 deficit in the first quarter and 34-14 in the third to take the win in the end 35-34.

“The best part of the game was definitely the fourth quarter.” Senior lineman Makeen Loretto said, “Everyone had a fire up their butts and did a really good job executing.”
“This 35-34 comeback with two onside kick recoveries leading it, was so epic,” Badger superfan Gary Aitken said. “The defense held strong down to the last second and more!!! Literally. After the eagles missed a last second fg to win the game, a penalty gave them one last chance to seal the deal from even closer with 00:00 left on the clock. Our defense held tough and the eagles missed yet again. One of the Best Badger performances I’ve ever seen. Top 5 in my experience. Great Job boys!! Let’s Go!!
The Badger varsity team will travel to Kellogg at 7 p.m.  October 4 for their next game under the lights.
