Raider Vie for Sectional Title!

The Raiders Gridiron boys have had a season to be proud of so far.  Now the post-season is underway -- so far Harrison has posted two victories in sectional action.  Week number one saw the Raiders defeat the McCutcheon Mavericks.  Week two found the Raiders traveling to Kokomo to face the number 8 ranked Wildcats. It was upset time!!  The Harrison Raiders topped the Wildcats 23-20!

Now it's on to the sectional championship game tonight versus the defending state champion Carmel Greyhounds.  

Go get 'em, Raiders!  Raider Fight Never Dies!!

Here's a few shots from sectional action v. McCutcheon

Girls Sectional Golf Action

Raider Lady Golf did awesome at Sectionals (placing second and moving on!), but what was up with Coach John Skelton?!!  

Look, it's Harrison's AD Jerry Galema waving to the crowd!

Junior Amanda Kreger took ten strokes off her game to give the Raiders a leg up!

Yahoo!!  We did it!

Raiders keep the Sword

If you allowed the rain clouds to keep you away from A.J. Rickard field on Friday night, you missed out!  First, the stadium was decked out in orange & blue using several different means, but most notable were the incredible banners created by Michelle Lutz (senior FN Lutz's sister) each a caricature of  a senior player.  AWESOME!  

The stands were full--parents doning Raider gear, students painted head to toe--and the team was fired up.  The game proved to be a mostly defensive battle with huge plays made by FN Lutz, Chase Ritter,  & Matt Schwartz.   Bowdie Linsenmeyer continues to tear up the field rushing--he now holds the school rushing record (and only half way through his junior season).

In the end, the Sword will stay were it belongs--in the halls of Harrison--as they Raiders were victorious 10-6!

Volleyball hot

Yes, it is fall sports season at Harrison but all the fabulous action is happening outside--inside things are heating up on the volleyball court.  The Lady Raiders are having a fantastic season so far.  Harrison volleyball is 9-4 beating Benton Central, Westfield (what a match!), Kokomo, Lafayette Jefferson, Clinton Prarie, and McCutcheon.  The only HCC conference loss so far has been to #3 ranked Avon in a five game barn burner (25-23, 14-25, 25-20, 15-25, 16-18)

Here's a little bit of the action on court last week with the Raiders at McCutcheon:

Freshmen Raiders come out on top!

As the Harrison football program continues to grow, the Frosh team went out to strut their stuff last week and landed a nice victory over Lafayette Jeff 22-14.  The future is only going to get better and better for HHS Gridiron! 

A big shout of thanks to Beth Brown for her shots of the action!

In Full Swing

Autumn may be upon us, but football is certainly not the only sport in which Raiders are competing.  This past week saw great efforts by both the boys' tennis team and the girls' golf team.  They were out working hard and looking sharp!

Okay, maybe not everyone was working so hard!
