Gala to raise funds for Community Hall By ELIZABETH RODRIGUEZ Yorktown News-View
Yorktown emergency personnel host meeting
SEGUIN • BEEVILLE • YORKTOWN
Brenda Nash has many memories that were made at Community Hall. “My prom was held there in the 80s. It used to be a happening spot. Of course over the years, times have changed,” Nash said. Digging back a little further, Nash also recalls serving waters at events when she was in grade school. Her parents volunteered at the hall. This year is the second year that the Community Hall committee is planning a gala to raise funds for renovations and the upkeep of the hall, which was built in 1952. Nash, who serves as secretary, estimates that the committee raised $45,000 last year. “It is truly a community hall and without the support that we were given last year, it
would never taken off as it did,” Nash said. “Within weeks of the gala, we had a new roof on the dance hall.” Leon Respondek is one of the committee members who was in charge of that project. “Oh man, we had leaks on that oak dance floor. It was rained out. But we had to start somewhere, so we got a new roof,” Respondek said. Like Nash, Respondek has many memories tied to the hall. As past treasurer for 17 years, he only recently returned to the committee. “When my little boys were growing up, I sacrificed every Sunday evening to be there, so I have a lot at stake at that hall. I have many memories, it’s place we used to go a lot,” Respondek said. Frank Dworaczyk, a volunteer with the organization agrees. See, COMMUNITY HALL, Page 6A

Rains welcomed, but more needed for local producers By COY SLAVIK News-View Managing Editor Some areas in DeWitt County recorded up to six inches of rain in January, but the National Weather Service office in New Braunfels is predicting a continuation of the drought conditions most of Texas has seen the past 18 months.

Thank you for your assistance in this endeavor. Our District greatly appreciates your kindness and generosity. By working together, we can make a difference for the students of Yorktown ISD. Deborah E. Kneese Superintendent Yorktown ISD
Reader enjoys “Neighbors” piece Dear Editor, Hi - I so enjoyed the article you had on Sonny Seifert. We were friends as kids ages and ages ago! Those folks are so deserving of this. I was around when his dad died and those were tough days and those folks handled it so well.
One of Sonny’s favorite expressions when one sees him seems to be, “I’m so glad you got to see me.” Such wonderful humor. Catherine Winklelmann-Blaschke Columbus, Texas
Sandy Gate Cemetery heirs thank all who helped install gate Dear Editor, We would like to thank Mr. Herbert Hahn, who donated all the materials and Mr. and Mrs. Sonny Siefert for donating their time and labor to install a new fence around the Sandy Gate Cemetery.

Netardus said row-crop farmers will wait until midor late-February to decide if they will plant or not. “We’re looking at them having a good start for soil moisture for them to get their crops going,” Netardus said. “But once we get it into the
ground, we’re going to need some follow-ups. We’ve had some years like this before when we’ve looked pretty good going into planting and then it didn’t rain again through March, April and into May.”

NORDHEIM NEWS By Gilbert Pargmann God first. Heavenly Father, our mission here on earth has many trials and tribulations. We agonize over trivial things and never seem to get it right. Please help us to find right paths. Direct and lead us past our procrastination with strength to move when called by our faith. We ask in the name of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen. Lord, we are going your way. Pray for those who are ill, suffering, or are in harms way. If my body were a car If my body were a car, this is the time I would be thinking about trading it in for a newer model. I've got bumps and dents and scratches in my finish and my paint job is getting a little dull. But that's not the worst of it. My headlights are out of focus and it's espceially hard to see things up close. My traction is not as graceful as it once was. I slip and slide and skid and bump into things. Even in the best of weather. My whitewalls are stained with varicose veins. It takes me hours to reach my maximum speed. My fuel rate burns inefficiently. But here's the worst of it. Almost every time I sneeze, cough or sputter, either my radiator leaks or my exhaust backfires!
Community and supporters come together at Stock Show First of all, I want to thank the NewsView for covering the Nordheim Stock Show in reporting everything I was going to write, they did an excellent job. I also want to thank the community and the supporters for coming together and making this year's event even greater with a total of $83,353 in sales. The show kids did an outstanding job of showing their animals and showing their cooking and projects. It don't get any better than this. The raffle proceeds came to over $2,000 and the noon cafeteria Stew for the Vance Frosh Scholarship Fund grossed $1,700 with an anonymous donor matching that amount. Plenty of great meat and side dishes at FFA barbecue The FFA Barbecue this past Sat., Feb. 11, was held in gratitude for the community buyers. It was a great success with plenty of great meat and side dishes for everyone. The Relay For Life Silent Auction went well as the German Chocolate Cake was sold for $175 and all other items went for over $40. This make the fund raiser even better. Enthusiastic siren On the last day of January, the siren that the city installed made a great impression as it took off and lasted for a little longer than probably was neces-
sary. It got everyone out of the house to see what all the commotion was about. Some thought it was the real thing but being new and loud it sounded great again. It's not the same one but a new one that rotates at the top of a utility pole behind the water tower. So sometimes when it is blasting in your direction it will sound louder as it turns. They will be programming it to a shorter blast and will be set off by the dispatcher at the Sheriffs Department as a test every Wednesday at 6 p.m. At noon each day, it will again go off as it has in the past.
April Spring Market Days approaching The Nordheim Museum had their meeting last month in preparation for the April Spring Market Days which will be held on April 12. Vendor booths will be available at $15 a booth. If you are interested, now is the time to call. Raffle items, baked goods and silent auction items are needed. So get ready. We know it is a couple of months away but preparations take time. A Market Days Banner will be displayed this year, so look for it soon. For more information, call Cathy Voelkel at 361-938-7208 or Betty Stehle at 361-938-5248.

Luling to host workshop to discuss growing feral hog problem in state The Texas AgriLife Extension Service, in cooperation with the Texas State Soil and Water Conservation Board, will host a Feral Hog Management Workshop on Tuesday, Feb. 14 at the Luling Civic Center. Registration for the event starts at 8 a.m. Five hours have been applied for Texas Department of Agriculture pesticide applicator continuing education units at the program (two general, two IPM and one Laws and Regulations). Texas has one of the largest feral hog populations of any state, and AgriLife Extension has estimated that the destructive habits of hogs cause about $52 million in damages annually to Texas farms, ranches and the agricultural industry. Feral hogs are also significant contributors of pollutants to creeks and rivers across the state.
Continued from Page 1A “A lot of our relatives were involved in that hall when we were young. My dad was vice president a few years back in the 60s. We all have a stake in that place because someone in our families put in a lot of time and a lot of effort to keep that place up,” Dworaczyk said. Now present committee members and volunteers are making sure their efforts were not done in vain. The committee hopes to use the funds raised from this year’s gala to purchase new tables and chairs for the dining hall. A long-term goal is to build restrooms in the dining hall. Presently, the only restrooms available are in the dance hall. “We have to walk outside to go into the dance hall, but a lot of money is needed for that,” Respondek said. In addition, the committee plans to use the funds to pay for monthly expenses, which Respondek estimates are $1,000. “Our expenses far outweigh the
As feral hogs congregate around water sources to drink and wallow, their fecal matter is deposited directly in streams, adding bacteria and nutrients to the water bodies. Extensive rooting by groups of feral hogs causes extreme erosion and soil loss. Landowners and other stakeholders in the Plum Creek watershed have identified feral hogs as a contributor to elevated bacteria levels in the creek. Through the Plum Creek Watershed Protection Plan, landowners have identified management and control of this invasive species as a priority mechanism to restore and protect water quality in Plum Creek. Topics at the workshop will be “Basic Biology of Feral Swine,” “Feral Hogs in the Plum Creek Watershed,” “Plum Creek Watershed Protection Plan Implementation,” “Population Dynam-
ics,” “Update on Feral Hog Research,” “Laws and Regulations for Hunting Feral Hogs,” “Agricultural Regulations Regarding Feral Hogs,” “Feral Hog Control,” and “Feral Hog Safety and Disease Concerns.” Pre-registration can be made with the Caldwell County Extension Office by Friday, Feb. 10 to ensure an accurate count for the meal and handouts. Registration is free and includes lunch, refreshments, and handout materials. Individuals with disabilities should contact the extension office at least two days prior to the event so accommodations can be made. For more information or to pre-register, contact the Caldwell County Extension office at 1403 Blackjack St., Ste. B in Lockhart at 512-398-3122 or at caldwell@ag.tamu.edu.
COMMUNITY HALL amount of money coming in from people who use it. But we’re trying to keep rates low so anybody can use it for reasonable amount,” Dworaczyk said. The committee members also encourage residents to attend the meetings and volunteer with the organization. The meetings are open to everyone and there is not a membership fee. “There is a misconception that the hall belongs to the Catholic church,” Nash said. “It never has been, but the perception is there that the Catholic men bought the hall,” Respondek said. Nash thinks that because of this misconception, many people do not realize that the hall does not receive much funding. She is optimistic about this year’s gala. “We were just overwhelmed with the support the community gave last year’s gala. It was unreal. We’re hoping for generosity from the people again,” Nash said.
Although many more renovations are needed, renovating the hall is a challenge that the committee members and volunteers welcome. “It’s a work in progress,” Dworaczyk said. “It’s never going to end. If anyone thinks we’re going to get that placed fixed up and everybody can relax... Well, it’s not ever going to be that way. You know that if you live in a home, you have maintenence. With something that big, there’s going to be maintenence all the time.”

NEWS-VIEWFAITH Three congregations share Advent offerings with hunger organizations
Three area congregations of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America shared their Advent offerings with two organizations that provide assistance to persons needing food. St. Luke’s Lutheran Church in Schroeder, St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in Ander, and Zion Lutheran Church in Arneckeville shared joint Advent worship services on Nov. 30, Dec. 7 and Deb. 14. The offering received at the three services has been donated to the Food Bank of the Golden Crescent and ELCA World Hunger, a ministry of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. The offering received at the three services totaled $1,016, which was matched with a $400 grant from the Greater Victoria Chapter of Financial for Thrivent Lutherans, bringing the total gift to $1,416. The Food Bank of the Golden Crescent and ELCA World Hunger each received $708. The Thrivent matching grant was made through Thrivent’s Care Abounds in Communities Chapter Care Program. For the gift to the food bank, 1/3 of the gift has been designated for use by CAMAL House in Cuero, 1/3 by Goliad County Outreach Food Pantry, and 1/3 by the food pantry of Fannin United Methodist Church. ELCA World Hunger is a ministry of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America that responds to hunger and poverty in the United States and around the world by addressing root causes. Through a comprehensive program of relief, development, education, and advocacy, people are connected to the resources they need to lift themselves out of poverty. Between 70-75 percent of ELCA World Hunger funds are spent internationally, and 20-25 percent are spent domestically. The international work of ELCA World Hunger is carried out through ELCA companion relationships as well as through trusted partners like Lutheran World Relief and The Lutheran World Federation. Because of these long-held connections to partners around the world, ELCA World Hunger efforts are efficient and effective. The domestic work of ELCA World Hunger is carried out primarily through the Domestic Hunger Grants Program (relief, development, and community organizing projects) and Education and Advocacy Grants. ELCA World Hunger responds to Christ’s call to “Go and do likewise” (Luke 10:37), serving with compassion people who are most vulnerable, paying focused attention to the full participa-
tion of women and the needs of children. The mission of the Food Bank of the Golden Crescent is to “Help Heal the Hurt of Hunger.” It collects, cleans, inspects, repackages, stores and distributes food and related items to agencies, which in turn distributes them to individuals who are needy, sick, and indigent -including men, women, children, and senior citizens -- or anyone needing assistance with food. More than 20,000 individuals per month receive food assistance through the food bank’s member agencies, which are located in the 11 counties of the Golden Crescent Region. Since its inception in 1986, the food bank has distributed nearly 60 million pounds of food valued at $80 million. H-E-B was the dominant provider when the food bank was created in 1986 and continues its commitment in supporting the needs of food banks. Walmart began participating by donating new and donated products to food banks across the United States about five years ago and is now the major donor of all food banks in the Feeding America Network. Both Walmart and H-E-B stores locally participate in the food rescue program, which diverts millions of pounds annually that would have normally been discarded in the dumpsters. The Food Bank of the Golden Crescent is a certified affiliate of Feeding America, which receives food from national corporations in the food industry that is passed on to local food banks. The food bank also receives food from local wholesalers, retailers, food brokers, and individuals. Through the Care Abounds in Communities program, Thrivent Financial for Lutherans provides funding for members participating in community service teams. These teams are formed to conduct fund-raising activities and/or hands-on service activities that benefit individuals, families, local communities or organizations that are exempt from federal income tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, excluding congregations. Thrivent Financial for Lutherans is a not-for-profit Fortune 500 financial services membership organization helping 2.6 million members achieve their financial goals and give back to their communities. As a not-for-profit organization, Thrivent Financial sponsors national outreach programs and activities that support congregations, schools, charitable organizations and individuals in need.

Ben and Margaret Lyssy Dlugosch on their wedding day Jan. 28, 1942 Friends and family gathered Jan. 28 at St. Michael’s parish hall for the 70th wedding anniversary celebration of Ben and Margaret Lyssy Dlugosch of Cuero. The couple married on Jan. 28, 1942 at St. Michael’s Catholic Church after two years of dating. They were both 19 years old at the time. Ben's sister, Constance Dlugosch and Margaret’s brother, Louis Lyssy served as attendants. The couple met at the Cuero Turkey Trot. Ben remembers spotting her thinking how pretty she was. During their courtship, he would travel by horseback to her parent’s home in Lindenau, where he would play his guitar for her. Ben worked in the oil fied until he retired in 1970. He then continued farming and ranching. Margaret was a homemaker and cared for the children and farm when he was away at work.
The couple has four daughters, Elizabeth Pollok and husband Edward of Bastrop, Carrie Berger and husband Jerry of Waco, Dell Gohmert and husband Mike of Victoria and Barbara Vahalik and husband Paul of Victoria; 10 grandchildren, Margaret Wright, Eddy Pollok (died 1982), Emil John Reiman, Rhonda Reiman, Eric Reiman, Dustin Gohmert, Kimberly Prichard, Jennifer Jurica, Mark Vahalik and Luke Vahalik; and six greatgrandchildren. The couple has had many joys and trials over their seventy years together, but credit their long life together to God and his many blessings, and of course, their love for one another. According to Ben Dlugosch, the secret for a long, successful marriage is simple, “You just have to keep on going and take whatever comes.”

Local chapter of Texas German Society holds monthly meeting The Lavaca/DeWitt Chapter of the Texas German Society held its first meeting of the new year on Jan. 12 at the Old Hochheim Prairie Schoolhouse. Twenty members were in attendance. After a delicious meal of potluck brought by the members, President Charles Soehnge called the meeting to order. Because the December meeting had been the Christmas party, there were no minutes to be read and a verbal treasurer’s report was not given Charles noted that a “thank you” card had been received from the Yoakum Food Pantry for the December donations of cash and canned goods. Betty Rathkamp gave a report on the origins of the pickle as a German Christmas tree decoration. After research was conducted, the conclusion reached was that the origin of the pickle decoration was essentially American, not German. However, at this point, the pickle is spreading in popularity and can even be found on some Christmas trees in Germany. The focus of this meeting was the Texas German Society State Convention to be held on March 3 at the Yoakum Community Center with the Lavaca/Dewitt Chapter to be the host. Members were informed that the convention has been listed by Glen Glecker on the State Events Calendar web page. Monroe Rathkamp added that the Convention was included on the Coming Events Calendar in the German Life magazine. Discussion then continued on the number of tables necessary for informational displays. German Life magazine, the New Braunfels Village Band, and the keyboard player have all requested tables to provide information about their services to the Convention attendees. In addition, tables will be needed for the display of German maps which will be available to search for the origins of German relatives and ancestors. A space is also needed for convention attendees who wish to enroll themselves or relatives in the listing of veterans of German origin. Members were reminded that on March 2, the Community Center will be open at 4 p.m. for the set-up of the tables and other necessary preparation of the facility. Charles requested that as many members as possible be present to assist in this task. Charles and Judy Soehnge have purchased a heavy duty pasteboard banner to be displayed. Charles has also made arrangements for the loan of various palms and ferns to decorate the Community Center. The tables for the attendees will be covered in red, black or gold, the colors of the German flag. The tables designated for informational display or exhibits will be covered in gold. Floral centerpieces will consist of spring flower arrangements in mason jars. Members were asked to check their pantries for available jars because approximately 52 floral dis-
plays will be needed. Judy Soehnge will organize the floral displays. Betty Rathkamp is in need of mannequins for her display of authentic German trachten and dirndl costumes. Iris Riske brought various samples of wooden crosses created by her uncle. The crosses were each unique and beautiful. Some of them will be available for the silent auction. Members were asked to notify Judy Soehnge of any items which they might consider providing to the silent auction so that she is aware of the quantity and category of the item. Charles explained to the members that the New Braunfels Village Band was in contact with him concerning the number of band members wishing to play during the convention. If the entire band of 40 musicians played, the group might be too large for the venue. Therefore, a smaller group of 15 musicians will be requested and they should be sufficient to do a program of traditional German music. Discussion then focused on the organization of the spaces allotted to vendors who will be displaying their items for sale. Irene Harbus reported that at this point, of the original 16 tables, her committee has successfully leased 15. Vendors are coming from across the state including Tomball, Spring, Boling, Ledbetter, and Fredericksburg. Various items will be available for purchase including stuffed animals, homemade figurines, German clothing, items made from goat’s milk, and items created from deer antlers. Registration forms to attend the convention are available from Deloris Gaus at dgaus@att.net. Joyce Manning is searching for additional items for the “goody” bags to be presented to each convention attendee. Already available are writing pens, lapel pins, and various magazines from the German consulate. Local businesses are being generous with a variety of items being donated such as hot pads and sticky notes. For each host member, Dolores Gaus is personalizing the German/American flag lapel pins with tri-color ribbons. The program will include brief biographies of each speaker. Barbara Braun will contact the German consul for a biography of Klaus Jochen Guehlcke, the speaker coming from Houston. As the host chapter, members of the Lavaca/DeWitt Texas German Society who have German attire will attend the state convention in trachten or dirndls. The next meeting is scheduled for Feb. 9 at the old Hochheim Prairie Schoolhouse. Anyone interested in the German culture is welcome to join or to be a guest at the meeting. Barbara Braun
Victoria Genealogical Society’s next meeting scheduled for Monday The Victoria Genealogical Society met Jan. 9 at the First Christian Church Fellowship Hall at 2105 N. Ben Jordan St. in Victoria with President Kenneth Booth presiding. After welcoming all members and guests, Booth introduced the guest speaker Judie Allen, who is a retired teacher, member of DAR, UDC, DRT, and a “social genealogist,” meaning she would prefer to travel to discover genealogy rather than spend time researching in a library, although she does both. She told of doing extensive research in the New England states and encouraged
researchers to check out the workplace museums. The society meets the second Monday of each month at 7 p.m. Visitors are welcome. The next meeting will be Monday at the First Christian Church Fellowship Hall at 7 p.m. with Charles Spurlin as the guest speaker. The subject will be “Military Recon-struction in the Coastal Bend - Post Civil War.” For information, call Booth at 361-5757584 or Louise Browning at 361-782-2171.

Continued from Page 1A of John Culpepper of the Lexington District of South Carolina. In the 1800 census, John Culpepper was listed with his wife and family in Lexington District, S.C. In 1807, John Culpepper was listed in the Richland District, S.C. records as the administrator of an estate. Richland District is across the Congaree River from the Lexington District. He appeared in the 1814 Edgefield District lands records as having received a state land grant. Gillespie Francis Culpepper was born on Jan. 31, 1804 in Edgefield District, S.C. The Culpepper Family T r e e (http://gen.culpepper.com) states Francis has been proven by DNA and genealogical research to be a descendant of Joseph Culpepper of Edgecombe Co., N.C., who is a son of Robert Culpepper of Lower Norfolk, the son of Henry Culpepper of Lower Norfolk, Va. The website asks that all Culpepper descendants submit to DNA testing to verify ancestry. It also notes that 80% of all American Culpeppers are descendants of Thomas, Second Lord Culpeper, Governor General of Virginia, July 1677. Francis Gillespie married his first wife, Martha Bales, in Edgefield District. She died there in 1823. Francis G. Culpepper moved to Georgia presumably following his parents and siblings. In January 1825, Francis G. was in Monroe County, Ga. where he married his second wife, Eglintine Langley. In 1830, he moved the family to Talbot County, Ga. According to the 1898 Shiner Gazette, Francis G. moved his family to Alabama in 1834. He participated in the Creek and Seminole Indian Wars in 1836 while in Alabama. According to the book, “On the Headwaters of the Lavaca and the Navidad” by Paul G. Boethel (pg. 60), Francis G., his wife, and 13 children left Randolph County, Ala. and moved to Fayette County, Miss. until 1851. They moved to Texas by way of Vicksburg and northern Louisiana. They brought their slaves with them. In the 1860 census, Francis had real estate valued
CULPEPPER at $4,500 and personal property valued at $3,500. Francis Gillespie Culpepper's picture and biography appeared in the Shiner Gazette, Lavaca County, on Feb. 2, 1898, as “The Oldest Man in Lavaca County.” On Jan. 31, Francis Culpepper, living about six miles east of Shiner and one mile north of Old Sweet Home, was 94 years old. Arriving at the same time as the Culpeppers where the Guthries. These two families intermarried. William E. Guthrie is reported to have constructed the second mill in Lavaca County. Oren Guthrie, a Primitive Baptist minister, and wife, Eliza Davis, were among the first colonists of DeWitt’s settlement. All of Oren Guthries’s four daughters married men prominent in the history of Sweet Home. Two were sons of Francis Gillespie. Cynthia John Thomas married Jefferson Culpepper, Mary Ann married Daniel Francis Culpepper (Boethel reports J. L.), Jane married Westly F. Vick and Eliza Ann married William Vick. J. T. J. Culpepper had come to Texas in 1849 and settled near Sweet Home. In 1877, he led the county in number of horses, 86; and, the largest number of sheep, 2500. William Culpepper, another Francis Gillespie son, also settled in the area and donated a track of six acres for the Mt. Olive School and the Primitive Baptist Church. On June 24, 1854, a decision was made to organize a Baptist Church in the area of Sweet Home, Lavaca County. On April 21, 1855 a Constitution was written for Mount Olive Church. Owen Guthrie was selected moderator and Francis Gillespie Culpepper clerk of Mount Olive Church. A great great grandson set up the Culpepper Heritage Association. According to their information, Francis G. Culpepper was 99 years, 8 months and 21 days old when he died on Oct. 21, 1903. He had seven sons and nine daughters. He had 366 grand children, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren at the time of his death. He was interred in Mt. Olive Cemetery, Lavaca County. James Louis Culpepper was born on July 28, 1833 in Louina, Randolph County, Ala. The Francis G.
Culpepper family, according to 1830 census, resided in Talbot County, Ga. and this is probably where he was born. He married his first wife, Eliza Jane Harbour, in 1856. Eliza Jane died and James married her sister, Margaret Hall, in 1860. Once the Civil War began, James joined the Confederate Army. He was listed on the Muster Roll of Frederick J. Malone’s Company, originating at Sweet Home, Aug. 6, 1861. His brother, J. T. J. Culpepper, was listed as First Sergeant. J. T. J.Culpepper rode with the 8th Texas Calvary or “Terry’s Rangers.” According to Paul C. Boethel’s book, “The Gentleman From Lavaca County,” This unit participated in 38 general engagements, 160 skirmishes as a regiment, and 370 skirmishes as part of a command. J. T. J. was wounded at and again in Shiloh Tennessee in 1863. In 1865 he was captured, but escaped. James went on to serve in Company B, Hardeman’s Texas Cavalry during the Civil War according to entries at the Culpepper Family Tree. The Culpepper Texas Archives Military Service Records stated he served in Company C (Malone’s) 24 Regiment, Texas State Troops. He returned home and was listed as a farmer in the 1870 consensus of Lavaca County. He lived next door to his brother, William. About 1900, he moved to Wilson County, buying land near Stockdale. He died there on August 29, 1922, at age 89. He was survived by his wife and 15 children, all living at the time of his death. Charles Everett Culpepper was born on July 4, 1871 in Lavaca County. He moved to Bee County sometime after May 29, 1900 where he and his brother, Joseph Milton, were granted deeds to land in Beeville as the original land grant recipients. He died in Beeville on Dec. 23, 1964 at 93 years of age. Harold Leonard Culpepper was born on Nov. 5, 1907 in Beeville. He married Genevieve Mary Harris in 1945. H. L. died at the age of 98 in Victoria. He and Genevieve are interred at Ft. Sam Houston in San Antonio.

YJHS Kitty Kats travel to Ganado Last week, the Yorktown Junior High girls traveled to Ganado. The seventh grade team came out slow as Ganado's physical play controlled the pace. In the second half, the Kats took the lead and held on late into the final quarter. Yet, Ganado quickly regained the lead with four fast break points in the final two minutes. The seventh grade played well but fell just
short losing 16-19. They fall to 1-7 on the year. The eighth grade continued to roll through district with a 28-12 victory. Despite early foul trouble, the team once again came out strong in the second half. Both teams played their final basketball game of the season on Feb. 6 in Shiner.
Seventh- and eighth-grade Wildcats take on Ganado The seventh grade Wildcats played the Ganado Indians for the second time this season on Monday, Jan. 30. “Even though both teams had a slow start offensively, the defense for both team made the game very interesting,” said coach Bruno Mata. The score at the end of the first period was 3-0 in favor of the Wildcats. “The second period was a very aggressive offensive one and both teams were exchanging baskets,” Mata said. “Starting in the third period, the seventh grade Wildcats exploded both offensively and defensively and only allowed the Ganado team to score four points the whole second half,” Mata said. Photo by Coy Slavik/Yorktown News-Vierw
The Wildcats won the game 23-12. Reagan Billings scored ten points; Wyatt Koricanek and Ysidro Garza each scored four points; Cy Strieber and Steven Wagner each scored two points; and K.J. Schultz scored one point. The eighth grade Wildcats were also ready to play and slowly gained points in the second half. “The Wildcats also played good defense throughout the whole game. Unfortunately, the older Wildcats came up short,” Mata said. The team lost to Ganado 35-20. Milam Eckhardt scored 11 points; Ryan Bennetsen and Cade Westbrook each scored four points; and Kevin Morehead scored one point.
Little League sign-ups set
Rodryck Williams had 12 points to help the Wildcats beat Ganado 43-34.
Wildcats secure playoff spot
GANADO - Kolbe Ybarra and Jayden Barefield each scored 14 points and Rodryck Williams added 12 points to lead the Yorktown Wildcats to a 43-34 win over the Ganado Indians in a District 28-1A, Division I basketball game Friday night. The win clinched a playoff berth for the Wildcats.
