The Lady Lynx took Pierre to four sets and battled it out in five against Harrisburg, coming out on the downside last week of both homecoming week matches.
Emmet Hansen guided the Lynx boys golf team in their second run at a conference title last week, but the sophomore’s five-way tie for fourth place wasn’t enough to overcome three of the Metro Conference’s five teams.
Brandon Valley proved they can play with the best of them. And that’s just what the varsity boys’ soccer team did last week, as they closed out regular season with a 1-1 tie against top-seeded Sioux Falls Roosevelt (9-0-2).
The Lady Lynx were like a well-oiled machine in Tuesday’s Eastern South Dakota Conference home dual 3-0 sweep ofthe visiting Yankton Gazelles. Two days later at Watertown, the host Arrows took their ESD guests to task, 3-0.
Brandon Valley’s game plan to upset the No. 1-seeded Roosevelt Rough Riders Friday simply didn’t pan out. Missed opportunities in the first half and untimely penalties were partly to blame for BV’s disappointing 24-7 ending.
The Eastern South Dakota Conference title slipped through the hands of the Lady Lynx Saturday, as Harrisburg nabbed the league title Saturday at Aspen Park in Brandon.
