Following one of the harsher winters Houston County has endured in a number of years, spring-like weather arrived last week. With temps reaching the low 50s, warm sun, and slight breezes, the heavy snow pack started receding, jackets were discarded, and the sounds of kids playing, motorcycles rumbling, and robins chirping was a wonderful reminder that spring officially begins Thursday.

CHS girls fall to Jordan 74-61 in state quarterfinals
|
|
Their faces tell it all. Members of the Caledonia girls
basketball team, and coaching staff looked quite concerned midway
through the second half of the state quarterfinal game against Jordan
Wednesday morning. The Warriors were trailing by 20 points to a very
good Jordan team, and ended up losing by 13 points, 74-61. It was the
second straight year the CHS girls battled their way to "The Big Dance"
at Williams Arena in Minneapolis, only to be sent home with a
first-round state tournament loss. For a pictorial look at the Warriors
in action at "The Barn," see the slide show on this week's photos. For
a complete look at the Warriors
trip to state, see next week's Argus. (Photo by Charlie Warner)
