by John R. McNeil II LR did not let the long bus trip to West Seattle slow them down Saturday afternoon as they shredded the Seattle Lutheran Saints defense for 383 yards on the ground for a 40-0 victory.

Leading the rushing attack was freshman Josiah Desautel who racked up three touchdowns in 136 y...

As I write this column, we just experienced another fast moving storm system. Fortunately, it appears this one wasn’t as strong or severe as the Aug. 25 event. Our temperature rang...
Holy Tornado! Let’s put aside our favorite topics (shopping and junking) for a bit for a quick rant and rave about the latest t-storm that blew through the Coulee Sunday evening, with gusting winds and lightning strikes dancing around.
