The Herington Railers Archery Team traveled to Clearwater today for a tournament. We shot very well. We ended up bringing home 9 out of 18 of the individual medals for the tournament. 8 of the 9 medal winners also set new personal best score in competition.
In the team competition, our middle school team took 2nd place, shooting a 2932 combined score, which is second best score we have ever shot as a team.
Congratulations to a great bunch of 4th thru 12th graders that represented their school & community in Clearwater, KS today.
Once again a big Congratulations goes out to the HHS Wrestling Team and Coaches! What an awesome season. #railerproud
