The news about a possible conference realignment for New Hampton High School and its fellow members of the Northeast Iowa Conference is pretty much on hold.
Turkey Valley’s girls weren’t happy about a loss to Kee High in early February, and with a 66-22 win over Starmont in the first round of regional action, they’ll be able to do something about it tonight (Tuesday).
In a game that was determined in the final seconds, Turkey Valley defeated Kee High 55-52 Tuesday night to advance to the regional semifinal round of the girls basketball playoffs.
They came in the dark of the night — Mateo, Vinnie, Hulk, Sal, Rocky, Danny, Rambo, Joey and Rocco — to Turkey Valley High School, and they opened every girls’ locker in the joint.
New Hampton girls basketball coach Chad Pemble used one word to describe how he was feeling after the Chickasaws fell to Waukon in the regional opener on Saturday — numb.
The next best thing to an outright conference title is a share of the crown. And for the fourth straight year, Turkey Valley’s boys have earned either a share of the title or the full prize.
New Hampton property owners will see an increase in their property tax bills, after all, if the proposed budget that will have two public hearings next month is approved by the City Council.
