With the ending of spring break comes more school, which means more New Albany High School news to report! I’m sure everyone was glad to have a break though! School can get overwhelming and it is nice to just relax every once in awhile. It won’t be too long until we have April break for Easter, it may not be as long, but it is still nice to have a couple extra days!
Even though it was break for most students, some sports players still had some games to play! Softball players had a game March 16th at the Northeast Invitational in Booneville. They beat Kossuth 1-0 and Bruce 8-2; however, they fell short to Booneville 4-6. Tuesday they played Lewisburg. Thursday they will play at home (Sportsplex) against North Pontotoc. Friday they will play at East Union at the Union County Tournament .
Baseball players played in the Union County tournament at Myrtle on the 15th and 16th. NA beat West Union 14-0 and also won against Myrtle with a score of 13-0. They continued to do well when they beat Ingomar 15-0. Tuesday they played Lafayette at Legion Field. Friday they will play at Lafayette for a division game as well and on Saturday will play Ripley in the morning 11:00 (JV) and 1:00 (Varsity) and continue on to Booneville at 5:00 (JV) and 7:00 (Varsity).
Congrats to Cade Simmons, Jerrell Howell, and Stan Gilbert who will advance to State for NAHS Powerlifting.
