The Bon Homme/Scotland/ Avon wrestling season has begun, and there have already been five meets, which mostly take place on the weekends. From Avon, there are three junior high wrestlers- Bailey Kemnitz, Weston Bierema, and Thayne Tjeersdma.

It was a good weekend for the Bon Homme-Scotland-Avon girls wrestling team as they finished in fourth at Pierre and took the team championship at Chamberlain on the next day.

After a long lay off due to weather the Bon Homme-Avon wrestlers got back on the mat hosting a dual against Parkston January 19. Going into this dual, the wrestlers had limited practices, and it was a little concerning just due to the fact there was not much time to prepare.

Avon hosted Viborg-Hurley January 16th for a double-header. The girls took the court first, in a game that had fans on the edge of their seats, but as the final buzzer sounded the Lady Pirates found themselves down by 1 point, 59-60.

The Andes Central National Honor Society (NHS) is now offering the homework room to all high school students on Wednesday afternoons from 2:45 p.m. until 4 p.m. The homework room will be staffed by two NHS members with members rotating and each taking a turn.

Andes Central/ Dakota Christian traveled to Corsica where they defeated Corsica/ Stickney by 4 points with a final score of 51-45. Josie Brouwer led the scoreboard with 19 points, Mahpiya Irving added 17 and Halle Olson had 6.

The Wagner boys basketball team had their best performance of the season Tuesday night defeating a very good O’Neill team. The Raiders fell behind 19-18 after the first period and trailed by 9 at half time 40-31.
