Girls Cross Country Fourth At State

    It was a good weekend for Rossville athletics.  The football team won their playoff round in football, and the girls cross country team placed fourth of the eleven teams competing at the 2A State meet at Wamego on Oct. 27.  In addition to the eleven qualifying teams,  there were several individual girls that qualified which meant a total of 98 girls running.

    The future looks bright for the Rossville team with only one senior on this year's team.  Senior Kaytlin Dorhman, who finished 21st, will be missed, but Julia Streit, who led the team with an 18th place finish, is just a sophomore.

PLEASANT RIDGE (5-3) AT ROSSVILLE (6-2)

From the C apital-Journal

Missing the playoffs last year after capturing three straight Class 3A state championships, Rossville has enjoyed a big bounce-back season. The Bulldawgs’ only losses have come to 2A No. 2 Silver Lake (17-14) and Riley County (40-25) and they opened the season with a good win over a strong Centralia team. Garrett Carver has stepped in at starting quarterback and carried on the success enjoyed by recent Rossville quarterbacks, throwing for 1,029 yards and seven touchdowns and rushing for 846 yards and 15 scores. Pleasant Ridge also leans heavily on its quarterback and Colton Comer has delivered in his first year as starter, rushing for 774 yards and 11 touchdowns and throwing for 817 yards and nine scores. The Rams were oh-so close to picking up a program-making victory earlier this year, falling 29-28 to Nemaha Central in the final minutes. The other losses came to Maur Hill and Troy.

Prediction: Rossville over Pleasant Ridge

CJ 2A State Football Predictions

Capital-Journal 2A Football Playoff Predictions

State championship — Silver Lake (8-0) vs. Phillipsburg (8-0).

Champion — Phillipsburg. The Panthers were upset on the way to last year’s state title game by Marysville and that loss has stuck as a huge motivator for this year’s Phillipsburg squad. And it’s showed as the Panthers have run roughshod over a good schedule, including a 42-14 whipping of 1A No. 1 Smith Center. Silver Lake has only been tested once and has an easier path to the title game and would love to add another trophy to C.J. Hamilton’s resume.

Contenders — Conway Springs has held down the No. 1 spot in the Best of Kansas Preps rankings all year and posted impressive wins over Chaparral (6-2), Hutchinson Trinity (7-1) and Garden Plain (5-3), all of whom could be considered contenders in the west. Cimarron (7-1) lost the star power off last year’s team, but is a weather-shortened loss to Elkhart away from being undefeated. In the east, could we see another Silver Lake-Rossville (6-2) showdown to get to the title game? Perhaps, but Humboldt (8-0) has yet to be challenged and is looking to make a statement, while Riley County (6-2), Maur Hill (7-1), Nemaha Central (5-3), Southeast-Saline (7-1) and Osage City (7-1) all are capable of making a run.

Dawgs Defeat Mission Valley 34-6

    The Dawgs relied primarily on a rushing offense to dominate the Mission Valley Vikings 34-6 in the final District 4 game, which was also senior night and the last game before the Dawgs go into the 2A playoffs. 

    The Dawgs got on the board first when Bo Reeves rambled about 55 yards for a TD in the first five minutes.    The Mission Valley Vikings responded with their own TD,  but failed on a two point conversion.       The Dawgs came right back and Tyree Sowers went 75 yards for another TD to go up 14-6 in the first quarter.

     In the second quarter,  the Dawgs and Vikings  spared most of the quarter with neither team mounting a successful drive until the Dawgs scored on a long pass from Carver to Reeves of about 40 yards to go up 21-6 with about one minute remaining in the half.  

    In the third quarter,  Bo Reeves took the opening kick-off and ran it up the center for a 90 yard TD.    Trevor Johnson took his turn in the scoring column with 3:31 left in the third when he picked up a 23 yard rushing TD.  Score at the end of the quarter 34-6.  And that score stayed the same through the 4th quarter.

Capital Journal Game To Watch

from CJOnline

MISSION VALLEY (5-2) AT ROSSVILLE (5-2) Oct. 19

Both teams have already clinched playoff berths out of Class 2A’s District 4. Rossville still has a shot at capturing the district title, however, needing a win over the Vikings and either a loss by Riley County or a one-point win by the Falcons over St. Marys coupled with a 13-point win by the Bulldawgs over Mission Valley. Rossville has extra motivation as a 33-27 overtime loss to the Vikings last year played a big role in the Bulldawgs missing the playoffs after winning three straight Class 3A titles. The win was one of the biggest in program history for the Vikings, who have followed with a strong season in Justin Duncan’s first year as coach. Cohle Phillips leads the Vikings with 836 rushing yards and seven touchdowns while quarterback Trevor Moore has a combined 1,004 rushing and passing yards and 14 touchdowns. Rossville quarterback Garrett Carver has been a one-man wrecking crew with 942 yards and seven touchdowns passing and 796 yards and 15 touchdowns rushing.

Prediction: Rossville over Mission Valley

History of Buttermilk Station

    The oldest building in the Rossville area is the former Pearl home on the south side of US 24 about 3 miles west of Rossville.  This home was built about 1860 as a stage coach stop and hotel.  The original name was the NEDDO HOTEL.  Later it became known as Buttermilk Station and was a stopping point for passing trains.
    In 1991, Jack Pearl,  who had lived on the farm much of his life wrote a small book with photos  about the home's history.    You can read that history at:

Note that you will need to view the book on a computer screen and not a mobile phone.
