While preparing for the high school segment of the program,
the tables were filled with hardware earned by the Eagle
teams' efforts this season. Included in the display were
both Ripley Publishing Co., Inc. traveling "Pride Trophies",
one for the boys and one for the girls and a pair of ORVC
conference Championship trophies. One for the Boys and one
for the Girls, as both varsity squads finished with perfect
6-0 seasons. This duo venture was a first in the school's
history.
Also included in the arsenal of hardware were the Boys'
Varsity Ripley County Championship trophy and a Sectional
Championship trophy with net remnant for both boys' and
girls' teams, and a co-ORVC Reserve Boys' championship title
trophy for their 5-1 season record, and the Girls' JV Ripley
County Tournament Champs title.
Perhaps more important than the hardware, or should I say
as important as it, was a letter to JCD Principal Ratledge
which came from the Franklin Community School, where the
Eagle boys vied in regional competition for a chance to
move on to the semi state. Principal Ratledge was unable
to attend due to a medical situation in his family, but
asked AD Meyer to relay the following:
Noted was the outstanding sportsman type attitudes of the
Eagle players after being taken out of the race. The letter
spoke volumes of the type of young men who had represented
themselves, their families, their school and our community.
Real glory obviously sometimes comes to the one without
the medal in his hands. (But that would have been nice to
have too!)
Lady Eagle senior Abby Lauber was selected as the 2006-2007
Girls' Basketball Excellence Award recipient given by Sports
Editor Gary Franklin on behalf of Ripley Publishing Co.,
Inc.
"All Eagle staff, players, parents and fans have much
to celebrate in the accomplishments made by both boys' and
girls' teams alike this season," stated AD Mark Meyer,
and he again thanked everyone for their hard work and assistance
in seeing that it was.
