The Three Amigas
The afternoon sun begins to fade behind the “Field of Champions” as the heat radiates up through the field turf. Few students can be found on this final day of class, the beginning of summer break. For three sisters this is the last time they are together on the same field. Two are packing their things to head north to a new school.
The other is preparing for the... More

In Bentonville, most people who have lived here for a long period of time would understand that the name Haefner and swimming go hand-in-hand just about as well or even better than most any other potent combination that might come to mind.

Flastohlers Headline Union Christian Baseball
This year’s baseball season couldn’t arrive soon enough Union Christian Academy’s Dustin Flastohler — and not just because the second baseman returns for his junior season. The fact that doctors have released him to play baseball after rehabilitation from a Medial Collateral Ligament injury will give him even more reason to enjoy the fruits of his labors.

Two Saints
Blake Roberts is a college recruiter’s dream. At first glance, the Shiloh Christian senior resembles Peyton Manning in his high school years with a 6-foot-6 frame and strong arm. But one thing the quarterback has that will have the message boards popping as we enter the 2007 season is a particular teammate who stands only a few feet away at receiver — his younger brother.
The word younger was... More

Lunney Legacy
Barry Lunney Sr. has seen just about everything you can imagine on the football field. His legacy begins in Greenwood where he coached from 1975-79.
