Casualty of being a sports reporter taking photos on the golf course. (No, I was NOT directly in the way ... the Red Oak player teeing off must’ve hit it at a weird angle and hit me straight in the forehead. Yes, I’m OK after stitches, but pride’s hurt.

Great job once again by North Scott in its state tournament run. Not many schools can say they placed in the top six in four winter sports ... lots to celebrate and be proud of.
And now, it's off to the spring sports. The run of success ain't done.
