Archer Is Athlete Of Week

ZACH ARCHER,  JUNIOR WRESTLER, is this week's Capital Journal Area Athlete of the Week. 

HIS PERFORMANCE: Archer captured the 106-pound title at the Rossville Invitational with an impressive showing, knocking off two ranked Class 3-2-1A wrestlers. After opening his day with a first-period pin, Archer downed No. 6 Mason Scholz, of Atchison County, 3-0 in the semifinals to earn a shot at No. 1 Trevor Ragland, of Pleasant Ridge. Archer dominated the championship match, taking a 7-0 win to improve to 15-1 on the season.

COACH’S COMMENT: “Our coaching staff challenged Zach this week to open up the throttle and force his pace on his opponents no matter who they were,” Rossville coach Courtney Horgan said. “He responded exactly like we hoped and wrestled with a lot of confidence this weekend. He’s had a tendency to give guys too much credit and wrestle conservatively sometimes, but he was the best guy every time he stepped on the mat Saturday and he knew it.”

Three Make All-State Band For 2019

I'm extremely excited to announce that Rossville has three 2019 All-State Members, and one alternate! They are Camille Hoffelt, 1st Chair Flute; Taylor Morelli, 5th Chair Clarinet; and Ava Stipp, 16th Chair Clarinet. Meagan Huston was selected as the first alternate on Clarinet.

This is a special year, because not only is this the most students (3) who have made the State Band from Rossville in one year, but Ava Stipp (Senior) is the again making Rossville history. Currently, students are only allowed to audition for All-State Band as a 10th, 11th, and 12th grade student. As a sophomore, in the 2015-2016 school-year, Ava was selected to the All-State Band, the first from Rossville in 20 years! She made it again as a Junior, the first two-time All-State member in Rossville history, and has now has joined the very impressive ranks of 3-year All-State members - the FIRST in Rossville history!

The All-State Band will rehearse Thursday, February 21st through Saturday, February 23rd in Wichita, KS during the Kansas Music Educators Association (KMEA) State-wide convention. They will cap off their weekend with a performance at Century II Performing Arts Center in Wichita on Saturday, February 23rd at 1:00 PM.
