Fall will mean sports

Lake Roosevelt Raiders practice Tuesday evening at Greene Field in Coulee Dam with a fuller schedule ahead of them this season, starting just a few weeks after the state covid health emergency rules allowed them only a brief season last spring. Coach Tim Rasmussen said then he looked at that season like an early extension of a summer football camp. Practice for football started last week. All other fall sports - cross country, girls' soccer, cheer, and volleyball - started Monday. Look for a Star special section on fall sports within the next two weeks. The first day of school is Sept. 1. - Scott Hunter photo
