ELK HORN -- One more victory was still required, but Exira-Elk Horn-Kimballton looked like a team destined for a return trip to the Girls State Basketball Tournament here Friday night. If the 2nd-ranked Spartans play like they did against Sidney, it will certainly take a big-time performance to...
HARLAN -- The Harlan Community boys basketball team finished the regular season Thursday night with a 65-49 win over Carroll Public, improving to 18-3 overall going into the start of postseason play Monday night. Kyle Juhl led the Cyclones with 18 points and 13 rebounds while Will Lansman had 17...

DES MOINES -- Jacob Wingert’s first-round victory proved to be the highlight for Harlan Community as the Cyclones scored just two points at the 2016 State Wrestling Tournament in Des Moines. Wingert, a junior at 160 pounds, and senior 132-pounder Elias Shaeffer were both making their first state...
DES MOINES -- Of the 84 Iowa wrestlers competing in Saturday night’s state championship finals, the vast majority got their start in the sport long before seventh grade. AHSTW senior Tim Barr, however, is one of those rare exceptions. And while Barr’s amazing season and three-day state meet run...
DES MOINES -- It wasn’t the exact ending he wanted, but Exira-Elk Horn-Kimballton senior Lane Ring was happy to at least wrestle his final high school match inside Wells Fargo Arena. Making his second state meet appearance, Ring finished in the top 12 of the Class 1-A, 195-pound bracket Thursday...
ELK HORN -- The three-pointers weren’t falling for Exira-Elk Horn-Kimballton Tuesday night, but Class 1-A’s second-ranked team did enough other things well to easily pass its first postseason test. Shooting 33.8 percent overall and just 4-of-23 from three-point range, the unbeaten Spartan girls...

ROCKWELL CITY -- A slow start to each half proved tough to overcome for the IKM-Manning girls basketball team Tuesday night. Crawling out of a 9-0 hole to start the game, IKM-M led 27-25 at halftime but South Central Calhoun controlled the third quarter (13-5) and held off the Wolves, 53-48, in a...
