Can someone let me know if West Elk won their football game last night. The odds makers had them winning.
Jane :)
I believe they did.
Yes. 8 to 6
Yes, we won 16 to 12. It was a great game. Right down to the last few seconds. Plus it was homecoming, so much fun!!
The 8 to 6 score was from the game last week, against Pleasanton. We beat the Solomon Gorillas last night. Last year Solomon thumped us quite soundly. This year, they are now 0-6 and we're 2-4.
What was I thinking to trust the newspaper? ;D
Just have to say a great game. Again, opposing team had many more players. The West Elk boys are gun to watch as they play hard and don't quit. Really exciting to see them win.
They scored the winning touchdown w/ 10 seconds left and on 4th and goal.

Congratulations, West Elk! It was the tailgate party food that made the difference!
Congrats to West Elk for its Homecoming victory ... we could hear all the cheering!
Who was selected King and Queen?
Tanner Weber was King and Amber Jones was Queen.
We are heading to Burden to watch the Jr. High play today. They are making up a game that was suppose to be played Thursday night. Our Jr. High boys are 3 and 0 in league play, and a win today would put us first in the league. My oldest plays and this momma is quite proud. Go Patriots!!!
We are so glad to hear of the success these teams are experiencing. The young high school team has faced some hurdles in the fact that there are so few guys participating, but their efforts and hearts are strong, and they truly deserve these victories for all their toughness in competing. It looks like the junior high is preparing a strong group to move up in the coming years, so that is also good news. Congratulations to them all and their coaches who must be preparing them well, both physically and mentally with a "never give up" attitude. Good job, West Elk!!!
I just talked on the phone with my brother in Emporia, and he said the Emporia Gazette said Solomon beat WE. BOO....................
