Turkey Valley routed Central Elkader on Friday night.
The Dittmer Sports Complex in Elkader saw a lot of points scored in Week Four of this particular high school football clash. The problem for the host Warriors was that the majority of those touchdowns scored came from the opponent – Mark Scott’s Trojans.

Luther College To Add Women’s Wrestling
Thursday, September 19, 2024 1:46 pm
Luther College President Jenifer K. Ward announced today (Thursday, Sept. 19) the addition of women’s wrestling as the college’s 11th varsity sport for women for the upcoming 2025-26 academic year.
“Luther has a long legacy of supporting its students’ desire to belong to teams, to learn discipline and resiliency and to compete,” Ward said. “We were among the first colleges to establish varsity teams for women, beginning in 1964 — well before Title IX legislation required us to. We will soon celebrate our 60th anniversary offering our women opportunities to participate in varsity athletics.”

Four second quarter scores enough to lift Decorah to win
Thursday, September 19, 2024 10:04 am
An interception in the final minute by Caleb Krieg was the difference Friday night as the Decorah football team (3-0, 0-0), who is ranked sixth in Class 4A by the Cedar Rapids Gazette, defeated non-district foe Crestwood (0-3, 0-0) at home 28-21.
“This was another good win for us. Crestwood is a tough team and their kids competed hard until the end,” said Coach Mike Tangen. “I thought our defense played well for the majority of the game. Our offense missed some opportunities but made enough plays to secure the win. We have things that we need to clean up. We just need to be more consistent in our execution offensively and we gave up too many explosive plays on defense and special teams.”
