The Wellington High School Crusader Singers and Choir performed their Spring Concert Thursday evening in the auditorium. Brad Ewing was on top of the sound and lights, a very colorful and well performed concert in front of a large crowd of parents, friends and fans. Multiple numbers, including 8 solos and more, all directed by Jessica Coldwell - all well received by those in attendance.
The annual WHS Sports Banquet was held Wednesday evening, with a large crowd of student athletes, parents and fans on hand as participants in all Crusader Sports and Cheer were honored and recognized for their achievements, not just on the field or court, but also in the classroom.
A HUGE day Tuesday for Crusader Boys Golf! Our Varsity finished 1st at the AVCTL DIV IV League Championship @ McPherson, winning by 19 strokes over 2nd place finisher Andale.
After an UNDEFEATED regular season, the WMS 7/8 Boys Tennis Team were in the "end of season" Pioneer League Tournament action at Winfield on Monday. The squad played well as they had all year but came up short, finishing in 2nd, just a few points out of 1st, behind Ark City. Good job, gentlemen!!
Individual results are as follows:
Jax Cornejo #1 singles: 5th place
Carson Rademacher and Justin Norris, #1 doubles:
The Lady Rockets proved to be too much for the Lady Crusaders Thursday at Worden Park. Errors got the best of Wellington in game 1. In game 2, the Lady Rockets jumped out early and held on. The Wellington girls did blast 6 HOME RUNS. (Rylee Rusk 2, Jacelyn Buck 2, Brooke McCorkle 1 and Gracie Fink 1) Prior to the opener, the 6 Senior and their parents were honored also!

The Crusaders jumped out on the Rose Hill Rockets early Thursday down at Hibbs-Hooten Field, and never looked back. In the opener, Wellington won 6-1. Cade Phelps got the win on the mound and helped his cause with 2 HR's to boot! Almost error free action - just 1 error on the Crusaders. Arlis Troutman & Trey Cary came in to finish what Phelps had started. It was SENIOR NIGHT too - 7 seniors and their parents were honored before the nightcap began!
