The River Queens have advanced to the Substate Final for the first time since 1998 for a chance to go to the State Tournament tomorrow night by beating the North Scott Lancers on Saturday night! Playing without leading scorer Jhaliana Guy, the Queens fought fiercely the whole game and ended up winning on a basket by Carryn Sattler with 6 (or 7) seconds left to give them a 51-49 victory. Lots of girls stepped up in the game on both ends of the court to earn the chance to advance. Scoring for the Queens were Fergurson with 15, Hankins 9, Sattler 8, MacAvoy 7, and Haskell 6. Fergurson and Hankins both added 10 boards while Haskell added 5 assists, 3 steals, and 3 blocks. The Queens play tomorrow night at Clear Creek Amana with the winner going to the State Tournament. The crowd was amazing and SO LOUD on Saturday. The team hopes the crowd can show up and support one more time tomorrow!
Congratulations River King State wrestlers Brody Harrington, Danny Peters and Damarius Robinson on an outstanding week representing Clinton High School at the state wrestling meet in DesMoines. Brody was one match away from earning a medal, losing a heartbreaker in overtime. Damarius wrestled outstanding as well but just came up short losing out on his chance to become a state medalist as well. Danny Peters wrestled great on the week and made it all the way to the semi finals, ending his season placing 6th place in a loaded weight class. This is our first state medalist since 2020. We are proud of our wrestlers, great job!
