Support for the Racers

A special auction will be part of this year’s Newcastle Livestock Booster Club Bonus Auction. An eight-day, seven-night hunting trip in South Africa for four hunters, worth a value of $12,600, is also being auctioned.

The Regional finalists from the previous week had a good showing at the State Wrestling Tournament over the weekend, with Max Rinehart (150) winning fourth place and Randy Nix, Jr. (215) winning second.

Head Coach Tom Pecore said the Newcastle Racer boys soccer team is off to its best start ever, going through preseason undefeated and playing some Class 5A schools.

Coaches Juan Lucas and Hannah Evans have only had two weeks with the 2023 Racer girls soccer team, but they look to a competitive season with plenty of upper classmen to lead the younger players.

Taking it to the hoop!
