MCC competed in their first of four varsity conference meets this past Thursday. The boys made their way to Fulda, while the girls went to Westbrook. The weather was not ideal, and the golfers hurried to get their 18 holes done before the storm rolled in. The boys in Fulda delayed their start and had to be pulled off the course before finishing until the storm passed. Luckily, the golfers were able to go back out and finish their round.

With the arrival of spring and summer just around the corner, kids are looking forward to summer vacation. With all the extra free time, it is important to encourage your children to stay active and not let the summer go to waste by sitting in front of the TV, computer or other devices.

Senior Reality Check for MCC and Fulda seniors happened at MCC on May 4th.

Participating schools included Luverne, Hills-Beaver Creek, Southwest Christian/Edgerton, Russell-Tyler-Ruthon, Tracy Area, Murray County Central and host Pipestone Area.

The MCC Rebels were back at home Thursday taking on the Adrian Ellsworth Dragons. For the first this season the Rebels were on their preferred field to take on their Rivals. The Rebels and Dragons tried to play twice this season but the weather has not cooperated. The Rebels were looking to pick up their fourth win in a row and their second win of the season. Before the lightning would cause a halt to the game the Rebels would put together another win.

Last Thursday, the boys traveled south to take on the Dragons of Adrian/Ellsworth in a huge conference matchup. Both teams sitting on top of the conference, this game had the feeling of a playoff game. The Rebels jumped off to an early 5-0 lead after the top of the 1st.

The MCC Rebel softball team was in Edgerton on Tuesday night. The Flying Dutchmen lead the Red Rock Conference and currently don’t have a loss.
