Last week at the Bayard BCD Meet in Alliance, Sidney’s Morgan Linneman and Logan Lewis were named Athletes of the Meet. But that was just the warm-up act. For the show stopper, the pair set out to demonstrate how some hard work and talent can earn an all-expenses paid trip to Omaha. And for some added showmanship, several others have joined the troupe. For Nebraska Class B high school track athletes, the day of reckoning had come Thursday in the District Track Meet at Bearcat Stadium in S...
Brendon Brown had a ready explanation for his team-leading round of 74 after Thursday’s Ogallala Invite. “I was just hitting everything straight,” he said.

By some estimates, mothers spend up to 90 hours a week caring for their families--perhaps even more. And their work doesn’t stop once the children leave home. Sentimental songs like “Just Before the Battle, Mother” during Ameri...

After riders take off from Kimball on the morning of June 1, the first overnight stop for the participants in the Bicycle Ride Across Nebraska (BRAN) will be in Chappell. The Creek Valley Board of Education (BOE) approved the request by BRAN to use the high school stadium for the stop in Chappell during their March BOE meeting. As the big day and night approaches, coordinators in the community are finishing preparations. Co-chairman of Chappell events for the BRAN stop Connie Loos said that they have an “Awful lot going on.

Teresa Grant’s arms never stop moving. She assembles flowers, ties colorful ribbons, tucks and nudges blossoms into just the right place--all while answering constant calls for last second Mother’s Day bouquets. “It starts on Monday,” said the owner of Sidney Floral & Gift Shop, “and we go all week.” Although a survey by the National Retail Federation suggests that more moms will receive electronics for the big day this year, flowers--along with jewelry and dinner--still dominate the gift ma...
