Body For Bobcats coach Rick Peterson, there was little doubt the Bobcats would repeat the conference track championship they’ve held since 2018.

Body It would have appeared earlier this year that Coach Weverka's Lady Cats were a sure thing for a four-peat for the conference championship but things can change unexpectedly.

Body After a season of battling every element possible, the Bobcats were granted a brilliant day on April 28 to host the MNAC Golf Championships at the Arnold Golf Course. “We had a perfect day of weather,” head coach Jarod Rush said.

Body The South Loup Bobcat Boys track & field team brought home their first trophy of the season with the runner-up trophy at the April 19 Overton Invitational. The Bobcats really excelled in the field events, and of the field events, Coach Weverka's throwers excelled to another level.

Body The Lady Bobcats scored their highest team score of the year, winning the April 19 Overton Invitational. South Loup’s girls track team scored 149 points, easily outdistancing the rest of the field. The day began with field events, where the Lady Bobcats got to work right away.

Body It isn't often that a track team competes and wins two meets in one week, but the Lady Bobcats did just that, keeping their winning record perfect as they won the 12-team Burwell Invitational on April 14.

Body Four Bobcat boys earned gold medals at the Burwell Invitational on April 14 with the team finishing fourth out of 12 teams competing. Silas Cool vaulted his way to gold in the pole vault, tying his personal best with a leap of 11 feet, 6 inches.

Body Abby Stallbaumer helps Bryn Schwarz catch her breath after she crossed the finish line for first place in the girls 4x400. That relay team broke the school record with their time of 4:25.90.

Body After a week of strong wind causing the meet to be rescheduled, the South Loup boys’ golf team hosted the South Loup Invitational on April 11 at Arnold Country Club.
