The Junior High boys basketball teams hosted Hillsboro last night (11-17) for their first home games of the season. In 7th grade action, the Rockets played hard, but lost both games. Carter Pfaff led New Lisbon with 22 points and 20 rebounds in game number one. Jamesen Pfaff was the team leader in assists for both games. 6th grader Grady Barfknecht scored 14 points for New Lisbon in game number two.
The 8th grade boys played very well and won both games. Game number one saw the Rockets edge Hillsboro 37-34. Scoring in double figures for New Lisbon were Brayen Morey with 18 points and Austin Berndsen with 10. The leading rebounders were Morey, Ethan Forschler and Evan Macrafic. New Lisbon also won game two by a score of 32-22. Brayen scored 13 points and Austin scored 12 to lead the way. Sixth graders Sehraj Grewal and Jude Keltner helped out as did 8th graders Gavin Clough and Kasen Edgerton. It was a total team victory.
Next up for the Rockets, they will travel to Ontraio to take on Brookwood with the 7th grade tipping off @ 5:30 and the 8th grade game to follow after completion of the 7th grade game. Good luck to both squads!
Games will be live streamed tonight at Just-A-Game website/app.

Congratulations to Taylor VanTreese as Mrs. Costello's pick for October's Art Student of the Month.
Mrs. Costello states, "Although Taylor is attending class virtually as an independent advanced art student, she is connecting every day with me for class. She asks questions and is always looking for ways to improve her work by asking questions and trying new things. I miss seeing her in person but am grateful that I can see her on the screen each day."
Otto Wilkinson was not only a local hero, but national one making state news. In this clip, you will see him and his wife Carol share the book, "USS Missouri" made with New Lisbon School students in Mrs. Walker's and Ms. Turner's summer school class.
