Both the WHS Varsity and Jr. Varsity wrestlers were in action on Saturday at 2 different venues. The former participated in the 20+ team invitational at Rose Hill HS, the latter at a JV Invitational held at Wichita South HS. "8" Crusaders overall (both venues combined) placed in the TOP 6 in their respective weight classes - congrats to them and all - here are overall results from both venues:
The #8 seed Lady Crusaders finished up the Wildcat Classic at Haven HS on Saturday. After a huge upset win on Thursday vs the host and #1 seed Lady Wildcats (49-46), the girls in red lost that "mo", falling to #5 seed Cheney on Friday (53-29) and then coming up short vs #3 seed Kingman on Saturday, (57-40). Still a 4th place finish in a field of 8 so nothing to hang your head about there. Cheney's full court press, (same press that gave the Lady Crusaders difficulties back on Dec. 7th at WHS), was again too much for the girls in red.
The WHS Varsity and JV Wrestlers headed west Thursday for dual action vs Pratt HS. In the end, the Crusaders won about as many matches but 2 open weights and most of their losses by pins, was the team score difference in the end. Big Varsity Invitational this weekend at WHS - that gets underway @ 9AM in the main gym!
106 - Open
113 - Open
120 - Colin Green (Lost by fall)
126 - Blake Bales (Won by fall)
The Crusaders got the 2018 part of their schedule off to a perfect start Tuesday out at WHS. The "C" Team Boys won their first game of the season is good fashion - congratulations to them! The "W's" continued throughout the evening, in both gymnasiums before relatively small crowds, perhaps due to the extreme cold conditions outside and the school still being on Holiday Break until Thursday.
The Lady Crusaders got the 2018 part of their schedule off to a splendid start Tuesday at WHS. The girls in red hosted the girls in green (Mulvane) and came out on top in both contests before a relatively small crowd. The temps outside quite cold and school itself is still on Holiday Break so no doubt lead to a smaller than usual fan base. The Varsity win moves their overall season record to .500, the JV Girls remain undefeated in league action! Awesome!
It was AVCTL DIV IV league opener time Tuesday for our Crusaders and the Indians of Andale. The WHS varsity boys were 1-2 and varsity girls 2-1 going into Tuesday's action HERE at home in front of a small to medium sized week night crowd. It was a split of sorts between the JV squads and Varsity squads. Andale won the latter, Wellington the former. All of the games were competitive and for the most part not clearly decided until late in the games. (Our JV Girls however did dominate the action throughout).
VARSITY GIRLS vs ANDALE
CONGRATULATIONS TO Shayland French, Avery Rusk, AJ Snipes and Ian King!! All 4 made their respective ALL TOURNAMENT TEAMS @ the Cheney Invitational that concluded on Saturday. GREAT JOB!!
The Crusaders and Lady Crusaders ran into several defensive and offensive buzz saws Thursday evening, playing host to Cheney HS who is the actual host (of the Cheney Invitational), which has played itself out at the participant's schools, 2 of the last 3 nights this week. The 3 day round robin tournament will conclude this Saturday at host Cheney and they will be hard to beat.
Both the WHS Varsity and JV Wrestlers opened their 2017-2018 seasons on the road Saturday. (Dec. 2nd) The JV were in action at Winfield HS and the Varsity trekked a little further, about 100 miles to be exact, to Caney Valley HS, just this side of Coffeyville in SE Kansas.
The VARSITY WHS Volleyball Girls as well as the FRESHMAN squad, were both in action on Saturday at two different venues. Both squads performed well and came home with 2nd Place Hardware - Congratulations Ladies!!

Pool Play Results
The Varsity Lady Crusaders after a slow first set with Circle, turned on the after burners and won the next "4" sets on the evening (2 vs Circle, then 2 vs Clearwater) to sweep and move their season record to 10-8! Congratulations!! The JV battled hard and after losing 26-28 in their first set vs Circle, came back to win the final 2 sets for the match win. In their match up with Clearwater, the JV girls were on fire that first set but the Lady Indians turned the table and finished out with the match win.
The Lady Crusader Volleyball Teams (Varsity and JV) swept both Mulvane and Clearwater Tuesday evening at Mulvane in triangular action with Clearwater!
