The South Winneshiek boys’ and girls’ cross country teams are approaching crunch-time. At South Winn’s final stop before the State Qualifying meet later this week, the Warrior girls placed first at the Upper Iowa Conference meet, while the SW boys were third.

The top trio of the No. 4-ranked Warrior girls placed 1-2-3 in the varsity event Thursday in Elkader. Shelby Reicks took home gold honors, finishing in 19:34.90. Only a couple seconds behind her was Josie Kriener, who finished second in 19:37.90. Felicity Taylor completed the podium sweep for the Warriors, finishing third in a time of 19:47.10.

The Clayton Ridge Eagles scratched and fought for 48 straight minutes, but the Warriors did not let them walk away with the win. Despite a relentless pass offense, the Warriors stepped up and got the win, insuring a playoff appearance.

Mitch Herold got the scoring started in the first quarter for the Warriors. The running back took the hand-off and scampered three yards for the touchdown, giving South Winn and early, 6-0 lead.

Ossian election approaching

 

 

Tuesday, Nov. 3, is nationwide election day. This year, with a vacant mayoral position and three vacant city council positions, it is more important than ever to get out and vote. Although there will only be two names on the ballot for Ossian voters to choose for the three council seats and no names listed for mayor, several community members have stepped forward to announce that they would accept the positions if chosen by write-in.

Polls will be open from noon to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 3, at the Ossian Community Center, next to the public library.
