It was a busy Tuesday for DHS athletes. All four court sport teams played their home openers, and the golfers were at Eagle’s Landing for NorWOSSA golf.

The golfers had a great day, with the girls winning the NorWOSSA Gold medal and the boys bringing home Silver. Amanda Wheatley defended her title to win the Individual NorWOSSA girls championship with Brett Getson finishing 5th overall in the boy’s division. The teams now travel to Fort Frances next week for the NWOSSA final.

In volleyball, the Senior boys took out the Fort Frances Muskies in four sets, 25-21, 20-25, 25-20 and 25-18. The Junior boys played hard but came up a bit short, falling to the Muskies in three, 25-20, 25-21, 25-17.

On the basketball court we had two close games, with the Senior girls falling 25-19 against the Muskies. Melissa Felske made 9 points to lead all scorers. Jessica Skillen added 6.

The Junior girls turned up the heat late in the game, but were unable to catch up to the Muskies, finishing down 14 for a 30-26 final score. Morgan Church scored 13 points and Emile Gardam made 6.

Congrats to all Eagles Athletes for your efforts!

It was a busy weekend for Eagles Athletes, with the Football team traveling to Winnipeg, Junior and Senior Volleyball in Kenora for tournament play and the Senior Girls Basketball team in Thunder Bay for a tournament.

The football team was unable to hold back the West Kildonan Wolverines as they fell 24-7. Jake Berry brought in the lone Eagles touchdown. The team is seeing steady improvement and should put on a good show at this Friday’s homecoming game.

In basketball, the Senior Girls won their first and then dropped the next two for an eventual 7th place finish overall.

In volleyball, the Senior Boys finished up in the quarter finals against Portage la Praire in a very exciting 3 set match. They played well and will continue to improve as the season goes forward. They ended the weekend with a 3 and 2 record and a tie for fifth place overall.

The Junior Boys team was split, with the grade 9 team placing 4th. The grade 10 team placed 2nd overall, losing in the championship round in three sets.

Congratulations to all Eagles athletes for their outstanding effort!

This week the Eagles court sport teams kick off regular season play Tuesday against the Fort Frances Muskies. Games start at Noon and continue all afternoon. Drop into the large or small gyms to cheer on your Eagles.
