This past week 18 students competed in the NE District FFA Meats Judging Competition.
Holton had the 2nd place B team overall with the following placed individually. Dean Klahr 1st, Jordynn Brown 2nd, and Nicole Kathrens was 10th.

A great time was had by all on Saturday at the JCYC event. I was so proud to see so many terrific high school students working sooooo hard to make this event the great success it was. A big thanks to Mrs. Harshaw and others for all her efforts in making this happen.

The HHS Speech squad qualified another one for State this weekend at Royal Valley with Ryan Haefke finishing second and missing first by just one point.

And finally we met with the Softball parents on Sunday night to go over some things as well as introduce Courtney Kassen to the Holton Coaching family as our new assistant softball coach.

2-15-12 Activities Update

The Varsity girls had a tough shooting night (19% in the first half) but overcame by doing what champions do and that is by playing both ends of the floor. The girls defeated SFT 40-26 on the night. With that victory the girls have clinched at least a tie for another Big 7 championship. Both the 9th grade girls and JV girls also claimed victories on the night.
The Varsity boys was a different story as the boys came out firing away and never looked back as they defeated the Chargers 69-31 and finished the night still tied with Nemaha Valley and Sabetha for the Big 7 title race. The 9th grade boys and JV boys finished up a wonderful 6-0 night at SFT.

Crunch time is here. Regional Wrestling Friday Night.
Middle School boys basketball is down to it's final two games and the their last home game is tomorrow starting at 5:15 here.
