Originally slated to travel to Buhler and play their JV on Monday, due to low numbers on the JV squad, a switcheroo occurred, bringing Clearwater's JV to Wellington and Andale JV would play Buhler. A close contest in the 1st qtr, evolved into a 28-6 lead at halftime for the younger Crusaders...by games' end, that score was 42-28. The JV squad moves to 4-2 on the season, with losses against Andale and Collegiate and wins against Labette Co, Rose Hill, El Dorado, and now Clearwater. Next action will be here at HOME on Monday, the 25th, vs Mulvane.

The Lady Crusaders were in sub-state basketball action Saturday afternoon at Clearwater HS. WHS started off strong but as the game progressed, the Lady Indians fought their way back. Airalyn Frame sustained an ankle injury (bad sprain) just before the 1st half ended and didn't return to action. A last second shot by the host, gave Clearwater the 2 pt win (34-32) and the sub-state championship. The season ends at 13-7 for our Ladies.. Tough loss today.

An exciting run by the Lady Crusaders, at Saturday's 4A Sub-State tournament held here at WHS. In the semi-final rounds, it was Clearwater over Winfield and Wellington over Mulvane, both matches, 2 set matches. The "2" advanced to the Championship Final and what a first set in the final, it was. Back and forth, and unfortunately a 26-28 victory for the visiting Lady Indians. The "mo" slipped a bit and Clearwater wrapped it all up in 2 sets, with a 25-12 victory in the latter.

Lots of exciting Volleyball Tuesday evening at Wellington High School. Both our Varsity and Jr. Varsity squads hosted the two "C's", Circle HS and Clearwater HS. Action in both gyms resulted in the following results - some "really close" sets and half of the matches required "3" sets to determine the eventual vanquished or victor. The Wellington squads played solid and were a joy to watch...their sticktoitiveness and tenacity can only bode well for the future. Great efforts RED!

Circle over Wellington

25-20

25-12

Take away the 2nd qtr in the Clearwater vs Wellington JV game at Clearwater and you would have had a tight game. The final was 28-0 Clearwater, 20 of those points came in the 2nd qtr.

A slow start by the Crusaders Friday evening at Sellers vs Clearwater, eventually turned into a very exciting contest with Crusader "METTLE" oozing all over the place.

Down 17-0 in the 2nd qtr, the boys in red would claw their way back behind Michael Cullens inspired runs, Berk Wright's 180 yds passing and 2 scores, Dustyn Schettler's skillful ball handling, and a score, Cope Henry and Montel Tate's combined receptions of over 100 yards, including a 47 yd Montel reception for 6.

The WHS "C" Team Boys road-tripped to Clearwater HS Monday evening, for some tri-action if you will, with host Clearwater and Classical School of Wichita. 

In the young Crusaders opener vs Classical, the boys in red came out on top 28-27. Scoring for the Crusaders - Korbin Jones 11, Jaxson Irey-Hurt 9, Keaton Hartman 6, and Carson Nugen 2. Hunter Lough, Rylan Biles and Zac Saffell saw lots of action as well, contributing effectively on both ends of the court. 

The visiting Clearwater Indians found success Friday evening at WHS, winning 4 of the 5 basketball games on slate. A mirror image from Tuesday's action with the visiting Vikings from Winfield. The Crusaders on Tuesday won 4 of 5. 

Senior Kanden Young (195) and Junior Kenny Fehrman (220), continued their "undefeated" status Thursday evening vs Clearwater. 9-0 and 8-0 going in respectively, it only took Young 26 seconds to move to 10-0, took Fehrman only 18 seconds to move to 9-0.

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.

The Crusaders were in action Thursday at the Clearwater Invitational Track Meet. The boys finished 2nd, just behind Andale, the girls 6th. Here are the overall results and the TOP 7 Crusader finishes broken out separately for your viewing convenience - Great Job WHS!!

OVERALL RESULTS

These are not official numbers but the first track meet at Clearwater HS each year is always unpredictable weather-wise. Spring hasn't quite taken hold and usually you prepare for the worse. There have been some unbelievably nice events weather-wise, but often, it has been like Friday or even worse. So, kudos to the athletes, coaches, fans, and WHS Yearbook students that braved the elements! 

Christmas and New Year's break was over and it was time to head back to the "courts" for the WHS Crusaders and Lady Crusader basketball squads. All "5" teams took the short road trip Friday to Indian Territory a.k.a. Clearwater. The Varsity and JV Girls continued their winning ways - here's the outcomes from all "5" contests - next action will be Tuesday (Jan. 8) @ Wichita Collegiate!!
