On October 16 The Wellington FFA Chapter went to Kingman, Kansas to compete in the South Central District Horse Judging Career Development Event.  The students learned about how to judge horses based on their confirmation, and also based on how they perform being ridden in various performance events in Agriculture Education classes.  They took the skills they learned and applied them in a real world setting by judging six classes of horses and giving oral reasons. (Oral reasons are a short explanation of why they placed the horses the way they did).

Members of the Varsity Girls Golf and Girls Tennis Teams were given an official sendoff at WHS on Thursday during lunch. Kylie Aufdengarten, Rylee Rusk, Calli Hatfield and Jensen Lynnes are heading to Winfield on Friday and Saturday for State 4A action - that will get underway at 10:30AM at the T.H. Vaughn Tennis Center. Good Luck Ladies & Coaches! Aufdengarten and Rusk were State 4A Runners-Up last season - it's going to be exciting!

Congratulations to the WHS "C" Football Team - at Sellers on Monday evening, the younger IRONDUKES took care of business, downing their counterparts from Labette County 22-0! Some good defensive stops and good yard-gainers by the Crusaders. Cope Henry, RJ Clift, Mekhi Haskin-Ybarra, Caiden Hamilton, and Trey Greenlee all ran the ball well - a fun game.

Next Up @ Winfield, Monday Oct. 21st @ 6PM - GO BIG RED!

WHS Jr. Payton Ginter finished 2nd Monday at the 4A Girls Golf Regional @ Quail Ridge in Winfield, just 3 strokes behind Regional 4A Champion Elly Berthoff of Winfield. Payton shot a 93 (+21). All scores were high. Congratulations to Payton and the rest of the WHS Varsity Girls Squad - here are their results:

The CRUSADERS got their first 2019 taste of victory Friday night, on the road in Altamont (Labette County Grizzlies). Final score WHS 21 LCHS 00. The Crusaders 0-5 going in vs. the Grizzlies 3-2, played solid football, chalking up over 300 yds of offense, about 110% more than in most previous games this season and the first 100+ yd rusher for the Crusaders emerged as well. Kudos to Junior Trace Rusk who carried the ball 27 times for 123 yds and a TD! 

The WHS Freshman Volleyball squad hosted a tri-meet with Clearwater and McPherson on Thursday. Rose Hill was originally scheduled as well but cancelled.

In the opening match, the Lady Crusaders fell to McPherson in 2 sets, 18-25, 17 25.

Results from Clearwater match are pending.
