Great to see the Midwest Central Middle School Marching Band in the Popcorn Festival Parade!
The MCMS cross country team continues to post faster times as the season rolls on: Isabelle Friedrich and Nora Dierker ran close to a 16:15 two mile, while Jaina Butler ran the distance in 16 minutes flat. Sam Dierker ran a very respectable 15:15 and Connor Coile fought hard to post a 14:45 two mile time. Great job Raiders!! Catch several members of the team running the Popcorn Festival 5K this weekend!
This weekend is the Manito Popcorn Festival! The Middle School marching band will be participating in the parade tomorrow. Please cheer on our awesome band members on if you are at the parade! Enjoy your 3 day weekend! Remember, no school on Monday!
Then boys baseball team moved to 7-4 on the season with a big 4-0 shutout of Dee-Mack Thursday night!
Zayne Arthalony continued the Raiders strong pitching performances this season with a gem of his own. The 8th grade right hander tossed a complete game scattering only 3 hits and striking out 10!
The defense flashed some leather behind Arthalony as well, committing no errors on the afternoon with a couple web gems by Joe Proehl and Jaxon Tumilty on the infield!
Offensively the Raiders only had 5 hits but they made them count with a big 3rd inning behind a double by Proehl, a triple by Arthalony and a couple big RBIs by Tumilty and Colten Watts!
The Raiders next games come against Norwood and Hollis on the road early next week.
Mrs. Dean's class worked together to build the tallest tower with paper. We learned that it took everyone to be active participants in order to be successful.
