Trimble County High School is trying to save it's football season. Last week superintendent Steve Miracle made the decision to cancel the season, since only nine players were showing up for practice. After a social media outcry, an emergency meeting was called for Friday night at the school.  Trimble Co. will give it another go this morning as players interested in playing need to show up for practice at 8:00.

After going a perfect 3 for 3 in the new Miss Homestreet/Miss Madison in Seattle in the preliems, Jimmy Shane and the U-1 was hit with a one-minute penalty for going below 80 mph twice during the pre-race milling period before the championship heat. Shane finished first but with the penalty the win went to the U9 and Andrew Tate. Shane was relegated to fifth. The first running of the final heat was stopped after Cal Phipps suffered a 360-degree blowover in his U-1918 Oberto Beef Jerky. Tom Thompson appeared to cut off Phipps as the pair entered the second turn of the first lap causing Phipps to ride up the roostertail of Thompson's U-11 Diamond Reliable Tool presents J&Ds. The U-1918 Oberto landed right-side up and Phipps quickly exited the craft uninjured. The fleet heads back east to Detroit for the Gold Cup August 24-26.
