The South Loup football team is looking to capitalize on last season’s success and continue their upward momentum as they start a new season. Last fall, the boys had their first winning season in four years, with a 6-4 record and making it to the second round of state playoffs.

The Lady Bobcats volleyball team has a young, but talented roster heading into this season. Last season the team had a 21-8 record and were narrowly knocked out of the race for the state tournament in the final game of sub-districts.

With all of their runners returning, and the addition of two new members, the South Loup cross country team is off and running this season. Last season, the Bobcats saw great success with three runners qualifying for the state meet, consistently improving personal records at each meet, and improving their times each week.

The South Loup Bobcat cross country team was off to a strong start to the season with a hot race day in Burwell last Thursday. The start time, originally slated for 4 p.m., was moved up to 9 a.m.

The South Loup Bobcats football team took very little time on Thursday to show their fans just how they are going to play this season - score first, score fast, and score often - and mop the field with their opponents.
