Congrats to Brossart boys on the win. Looks like they broke the Crusader championship streak.

Editorial Comment: The KH$AA is waaaayyy out of line charging everyone over 10 years old $10 each to attend an event in the middle of a pasture that cannot be witnessed in its entirety, furlongs from the parking lot.

Lots of kids came out to support their teams, only to be price-gouged by the ruling body of high school athletics in the Commonwealth.

 

Does EVERY high school sporting event have to be a major For Profit effort???

 

And then to add insult to injury, the KHSAA cut back their awards per race from 15 as in past to 10!

What a world we live in!!!

 

And no, I didn't get in free. Didn't know I was coming until Friday so didn't have press credentials. Actually got booted from the media tent while posting an update to the BMustangs website. lol!!!

^I agree Mustang! The $10 entrance fee is quite steep.

I would be interested in an explanation, because I don't see the hidden costs.

I did enjoy the expanded viewing area. It spread the crowd out nicely.

Only shot 1A but here is the link to pictures

 

Thanks, paNDA! Excellent photos.

 

I thought yesterday's temps were quite pleasant. It's interesting to see so many wearing the winter gear.

Seems like the St Henry girls program is quite deep. New faces in high places.
