    Stanton defeated East Mills 7-25, 18-25, 10-25 Thursday night’ in Corner Conference volleyball.
    “The girls battled, never gave up and I am very proud of them for that,” said East Mills coach Connie Blank.  “That is the most scrappy we have played and will expect it to continue.  We need to execute better ball control and limit our unforced errors, but overall I was pleased with our effort.”

    Glenwood won the first two games but couldn’t hang on for the win as Clarinda battled back from a 2-0 deficit to down the Rams 25-19, 25-19, 18-25, 22-25, 15-13 in Hawkeye 10 Conference volleyball last Tuesday.

    Colby Jennings ran for four touchdowns and Austin Sommerla threw a touchdown pass for the East Mills football team in a 42-0 victory over Clarinda Academy on Friday.
    “We really played much better,” said East Mills coach Andy Irwin, a week after the Wolverines’ offense struggled in a 10-7 season-opening loss to Shenandoah. “The effort was there. We did a good job in blocking assignments, and guys who we had to sort of move around the fly last week due to injuries were more in position.”

    James Fuller’s top finish led five Glenwood runners in the top 11 to earn the team crown at the Rams’ home cross country meet on Tuesday.
    The meet, delayed from the previous Saturday due to rain, saw the Rams run away from the field led by Fuller’s time of 18:06. Glenwood easily out-paced second place Council Bluffs Thomas Jefferson 30 to 56 in the team point standings.
