Oops, M-C Does It Again
Britney Spears may or may not be Mabel-Canton (2-seed, 31-4) volleyball’s favorite artist. But for the third time in five years, M-C did it, rallying from a hole at Mayo Civic Center. For the second time in five years, they came back from down 0-2 versus Fillmore Central. The Falcons (3-seed, 18-9) were on fire early.

Trojans Roll Blossoms
It took one play for #9 R-P (1-seed, 8-1) to set the tone versus Blooming Prairie (4-seed, 7-2) in the other 1A semi. Noah Carlson returned the opening kick-off 81-yards to pay-dirt.

Falcons’ Peters Subdue Goodhue
It’s not rare for brothers to play on the same football team. It is rare for both to be important cogs on said team at the same time. Mama and papa Peters are pretty proud. Their sons made multiple plays, each a big one late, to propel #5 Fillmore Central (2-seed, 8-1) past Goodhue (3-seed, 7-2). The Falcons opened the 1A semifinal with a stop, then a drive. Matt Lutes’ 34-yard … [Read more...]
Tiebreak, LFC Girls Back to State
It was dicey for the defending Section 1A girls cross country champs. Third-ranked L/FC came into the Section meet the favorites. Fifth-ranked Stewartville, a team LFC twice beat in the regular season, appeared their biggest adversary. But then they ran the race. In a sport that scores five runners, it came down to a sixth to decide Section 1A’s second state bid. Last year’s … [Read more...]

The political advertisment that was published in the October 31, 2016 issue of the Fillmore County Journal titled “Save Kingsland Middle School” inadvertantly made no mention of who paid for the ad. To clarify, the ad was paid for by Donna Erdman of Wykoff. … [Read more...]

Journal Writing Project: I’m not afraid to talk about what everyone else finds too inappropriate
What if I told you that there is an epidemic spreading across our entire world? What if I said that one of the most public health issues our society is facing today is readily available in every home, but few people are educated on how bad it is? What if I told you that there is science and research proving that this problem is at the root of affecting human lives and … [Read more...]
