The Order Eastern Star (OES) Soup and Pie luncheon was held Wednesday, March 4 at the Masonic Temple in Armour. The luncheon started as a salad luncheon in 2004. As the memberships have gotten older the salad luncheon switched to the soup and pie luncheon in 2006. Members donated food and made chili and chicken noodle soup along with different kinds of pie. This is one of the bigger fundraisers to help with scholarships for children or grandchildren of the members and help with repairs through out the year.

Wagner committed 12 turnovers compared to 18 from Madison. Wagner was out rebounded 33-32. “Not the way we wanted to end. The girls never quit. They kept playing hard this game and throughout the year. Shooting was our struggle tonight as we got good looks but just didn’t convert at a high percentage. We want to thank our Seniors for all their work, leadership, and dedication: Dani, Kayli, Deisha, and Maesa. We wish them the best of luck in the future and you will be missed. Thank you to all the parents for allowing us to have your daughters for the past 4 months. Unfortunately, this season is over finishing 8-13 at the varsity level where we competed in most of our losses. Our schedule is tough as we play top teams in both class A and B where 5-6 if not more of our opponents will make the state tournament. Our JV finished 14-6 on the year. With that being said, our schedule won’t change, and we will have competitive teams. We made improvements throughout the season, but to get where these competitive teams are, we must start in the off-season by playing in the driveway, getting to open gyms, and just watching basketball. Our lives are busy, but so is everyone’s. You are only going to get something positive by what you put into it.”
