DES MOINES -- Longtime Harlan Community teacher, coach and official Jim Bruck was recently inducted into the Iowa High School Athletic Association’s Wrestling Officials Hall of Fame. Bruck received his Hall of Fame plaque just prior to this year’s State Wrestling Tournament championships on the...
GLENWOOD (Feb. 27) -- At almost any level of basketball, it’s rare to make just two fourth-quarter field goals, allow 13 during the same period and beat a quality postseason opponent by 13 points on the road. But this was no ordinary night for Harlan Community. Led by senior point guard Connor...
HARLAN (Feb. 26) -- The AHSTW girls basketball team fell just one basket shy of extending a memorable season and snapping a 19-year state tournament drought on the same night. In the end, a subpar third quarter proved too much to overcome last Wednesday as the 13th-ranked Lady Vikes lost to 12th-...
HARLAN (Feb. 26) -- The Exira-Elk Horn-Kimballton girls fought from behind nearly all 32 minutes Wednesday night but couldn’t put together the big run necessary to rattle St. Albert.

GLENWOOD (Feb. 24) -- Beating a rival three times in three weeks isn’t supposed to be easy. Harlan Community experienced that first hand and lived to tell about it in Monday’s opening round of the Class 3A playoffs. Trailing by eight points at halftime, HCHS outscored Atlantic 19-5 in the third...
GLENWOOD (Feb. 22) -- Sometimes all that’s left to do is tip your hat. The Harlan Community girls basketball team certainly made Glenwood work during last Saturday’s Class 4A, Region 1 semifinal game, but in the end the third-ranked Rams’ explosive nature and spurtability proved too much in a 64-...
AVOCA (Feb. 20) -- The AHSTW boys basketball team saw its season come to an end last Thursday night following a 73-69 Class 2A district semifinal loss at the hands of Kuemper Catholic.
