Homecoming night is always an electric atmosphere, and last Friday on the Nebraska Christian campus, the crowd was treated to an unforgettable contest. However, it was the visiting Palmer Tigers who ultimately spoiled the Eagles’ celebration, coming away with a hard-fought 26-20 victory.

The High Plains Storm felt the full force of the Riverside Chargers last Friday night, suffering their first loss of the season in a 42-16 defeat at home.

In what can only be described as a battle of wills, the High Plains Storm emerged victorious in a five-set showdown against the Nebraska Christian Eagles last Thursday night in Polk.

The Central City Bison volleyball team has made one thing abundantly clear this season: they know how to fight. Last Thursday night, the Bison squared off against Cross County in what turned out to be an epic five-set battle inside a packed Dome.

We wish we had more space to tell you more, but it was a great week for Bison softball as the squad won three of their four games, only losing to a top ranked St. Cecilia team.

If you were in the stands Friday night, you might still be recovering from what was one of the wildest, most dramatic football games Central City has seen in years.

After a tough opening week loss to High Plains, Nebraska Christian bounced back in a big way, defeating Neligh-Oakdale 28-12 on Friday night. Led by standout performances from senior quarterback Oliver Herman and senior running back Brodey Flynn, the Eagles took control early and never looked back.

The High Plains Storm kept their perfect season intact Friday night, cruising to a 51-8 victory over Palmer in Polk. In a game where the Storm’s offense seemed unstoppable, senior Gage Friesen took control from the start, leading High Plains to a commanding win.

If the High Plains volleyball team had aspirations for a perfect season, they hit a bump in the road on Tuesday night as they suffered their first loss against Fullerton.
