High schools took a break from competition Monday, as is often the case during the final weeks of fall and first practices of winter – so instead of the usual event coverage, we gathered a few reports of note including a feature on one of the most unexpected volleyball teams still alive, a two-sport fall athlete and how the Class A champion in girls basketball plans to come back for more.

Each weekday during the school year, we’ll gather and post media links covering the most significant and intriguing high school events from all over the state.

Bridgman’s Drew Dow is the latest at his school to play two sports during the same season, and he explains why he navigates the demands – St. Joseph Herald-Palladium

Girls Basketball
