SULPHUR — Ahead of the championship title game, the Welsh Greyhounds secured a big win on Tuesday, cementing their place in the midweek finals. Playoff baseball; you've got to love it.

Jennings High School football players and PE classes participated in the Physical Fitness Challenge hosted by the U.S. Army. Students not only pushed themselves throughout the event, but it was also a nice change to their regular physical education routine.

The Hathaway High School track team recently competed in the LHSAA Class B Region 3 meet.

Members from the Elton High School boys’ baseball and girls’softball teams, both junior high and varsity, went headto- head for the school’s annual end of year competition. School officials said it was a great evening of fun, laughter and school spirit, as well as the perfect way to wrap up the season.

To celebrate their recent victory, the Welsh High School Greyhound baseball team bombarded Head Coach Caleb Hayes after the matchup, drenching him in a celebratory Gatorade bath. What began in 1984 as a playful gesture of revenge against Coach Bill Parcells by the New York Giants, this wet and sticky tradition has grown into a symbol of victory for many sports teams. The first nationally televised Gatorade bath took place after Super Bowl XXI in 1987, cementing the ritual in history.
