The boys game will see the Wildcats looking to maintain their perfect start while the Sailors are hoping for their first win. The St. Patrick’s Irish and Lady Irish are also in action, hosting Gothenburg.

The Wildcat boys basketball team is unbeaten thus far and rolling over their competition. Head coach Joe Hesse talks about the important factors to their hot start. The Lady Wildcats just got their first win last week and have a tough challenge this week. Hear all about it in this week’s Wallace Wildcats sports update!
The Wildcat boys and girls got their seasons started on the hardwood last weekend. The boys are hoping to pile up the wins this year and they have five starters returning to help them towards that goal. The girls lost their first two games but hope to develop quickly under a new head coach. Hear all about it in this week’s Wallace Wildcat sports update!
The North Platte Bulldog boys and girls basketball teams get their seasons underway tonight. The Bulldog boys return four starters in Matt Kaminski’s second year on the sidelines. They face Lincoln High at the Doghouse tonight, with the tipoff scheduled for 7:30. The Lady Bulldogs bring back two starters for head coach Mark Woodhead. They make the trip to the capital city to face Lincoln High’s Lady Links. ESPN Radio 1410 will have the broadcast of the girls game, with pregame coverage at 7:30 and the tipoff at 7:45.

The Sutherland Lady Sailors and Brady Lady Eagles are heading to Grand Island for next week’s state volleyball tournament. For Sutherland, it’s the third consecutive trip. The Lady Sailors pasted Potter-Dix in three sets, 25-11, 25-11, 25-10, in the D1-6 district final. Sam Kennedy led the Sutherland attack with 17 kills. In the D2-5 district final, Brady defeated Wallace in four sets, 25-22, 25-10, 23-25, 25-15, to make it to state for the second straight season. The Lady Eagles were third at state last year. Tonight the St. Patrick’s Lady Irish face Bridgeport in the C2-6 district championship at Creek Valley High School in Chappell. The Lady Irish are first in Class C2 in wild card points, meaning a trip to state is all but assured regardless of tonight’s outcome, but they’d love to capture a second straight district crown. First serve is set for 7:30.
