  • Braves end Williamstown’s season

    The Williamstown Demons and Grant County Braves boys basketball teams met on Feb. 18 in the first round of the 2013 32nd District Tournament.

    The stakes were high when the cross-town rivals faced off, each with the goal of ending the other team’s season. Leading up to the game, the odds leaned in favor of Grant County whose season record of 23-4 qualified them for the top spot in the region.
    Williamstown’s season has been less fortunate. The young team with a new coach has struggled to keep up with more experienced teams.

  • Lady Demons grow, learn, rebuild

     

    Barb Burgess in her first season as head coach of the Williamstown High School Lady Demons softball team liked what she saw, especially in the last game of the season.

    “The majority of the team are eighth graders, so this was definitely a rebuilding year for us,” said Burgess. “The district game against Simon Kenton was our best.”

    The Lady Demons found their bats in the first inning and took a three-run lead but the Lady Pioneers clawed back and tied the game up in the second inning.

    Mason said a high point for the team was winning the first round of the All “A” tournament and the low point was not advancing in district play.
