Last Saturday, the Bluffton cross country teams travelled to Kalida to compete in the first ever Wildcat Invitational.

Only two days before, a victory for the girls at the Riverdale Invitational left many exhausted and happy, but the runners knew that they couldn't be satisfied just yet.

It's October. The temperatures begin to drop just as the leaves on the trees fall. Here are the high and low temperature readings for the first four days of the month from Guy Verhoff, Pandora weather observer.
