three plays and took an 8-0 lead early
in the f'wst quarter. The Grizzlies re-
sponded to the challenge and responded
with 54 consecutive points putting the
Kats out of their misery early in the
third quarter. The defense atoned for
their first quarter miscues and hounded

plays which led to numerous turnovers
which the Grizzlies capitalized on by
turning them into scoring opportuni-
ties.

Head coach Brock McMillan said,
"I think anytime you sit on a bus for
two plus hours before arriving for a
game, you are going to have to deal
with a little bit of flat play. It might take
a series or two, the kids have to be
ready to adjust. I feel like our kids did
a good job of doing just that. They
responded when Chase stopped them
and scored immediately. What we can't
do though is get in a habit of doing that
every time we play on the road. We
have teams on the schedule later this
season that won't allow us to do this
and get away with it. It' s something we
will learn from and impro,ve on, I. w~::

Rock Hills juniors
cash in education
savings accotmt
Seventeen membeers of the current
Rock Hills junior class were in school
here in first grade, and each received a
(529) education savings accounts worth
$250. Today, they are worth an aver-
age of $400 because of tax-free gains
in their investment accounts with the
state of Kansas Learning Quest 529
program.
Many juniors and seniors at Rock
Hills High School take college classes
during high school because receiving a
few college credits before graduation
is important. Mankato Endowment was
the donor 10 years ago of the 529
accounts and agreed to allow students
to use them for college tuition and
expenses.
Nine juniors taking college classes
recently cashed in their 529s and re-
ceived a total of $3,274 to help with
college expenses.
