Shadle Park offense dominant in season opener

Brett Rypien was right. The senior Shadle Park quarterback told anyone who would listen that the Highlanders would be able to replace their top four receivers who graduated. They combined to catch 190 of Rypien’s 253 completions last fall.

Lake City rolls past Lewis and Clark, 29-0

Lake City quarterback Michael Goggin pointed the finger at himself for key mistakes in the first half, especially late in the second quarter Friday night.

Indians can’t slow Bengals

Uncertain and slow a week ago in a season-opening loss, the Lewiston football team made a 180-degree turnaround in six days. Leading the way was senior running back Tyler Eberhardt. A backup last year, Eberhardt scored four first-half touchdowns as the Bengals opened a 34-7 lead by halftime en route to a 41-7 victory over the North Central Indians at Albi Stadium on Thursday night.

Greg Lee: Plenty of races to keep an eye on this year

Had the Greater Spokane League not divided into 4A and 3A divisions in football, this could have been a year that as many as eight teams may have had realistic thoughts of a league championship.

Lewis and Clark turns to George Pfeifer to run girls basketball team

Just when you thought the level of coaching in Greater Spokane League girls basketball coaching couldn’t get better, Lewis and Clark has hired George Pfeifer. Pfeifer, whose Lewis Clark State College men’s teams were a combined 295-206 in 16 years, replaces Jim Redmon, who resigned to take the Tigers’ boys head coaching position.

Three new GSL football coaches preside over first practices
