New Basketball Coach--Brandon McDonnell
From Tops In Sports:
Brandon McDonnell had a bird's eye view of the amazing turnaround that Rick Bloomquist's Topeka West's boys basketball team has put together in recent seasons.
Now the former Topeka High and Baker University player will try to engineer a similar turnaround in his first head coaching job at Rossville.
McDonnell was introduced Tuesday as the Bulldawgs' new head coach, taking over a team that was just 3-18 this past season but heading to a school that is very well-respected as a small-school athletic power.

Lady Dawgs Get Two Wins At SL
From TopsInSports:
Six home runs and a walkoff win Monday was everything Rossville's softball team had been working for.
Rossville’s offense boosted the Bulldawgs to 10-0 on the season and it was evident throughout the course of the 10-1, 9-8 doubleheader sweep over Silver Lake why that is the case.
Rossville's Vanesa Quinones (left), Kinsey Perine (middle) and Kinley Porter combined for six home runs in Monday's 10-1, 9-8 doubleheader sweep over Silver Lake. Perine hit three homers, Porter two and Quinones one roundtripper in the twinbill. [Photo by Isaac Deer/TSN]
Kinley Porter, who didn’t have a home run on the season, hit two home runs against the Eagles, including the walk-off home run in Game 2 to give Rossville the sweep.
“Today was the first time I’ve ever hit a home run and the fact that I hit two tonight, it was special,” Porter said. “In practice, we practice every outcome and visualize winning games. We put our practice into real-life tonight and it paid off.”
The Monday home run derby was led by Kinsey Perine, who had a combined three home runs in the doubleheader.
Corban University commit Vanesa Quinones also hit a long ball in Rossville’s Game 2 win after pitching a stellar game in the first game of the doubleheader..
