The 2020-21 High School Girls Volleyball team had an amazing start to their season! The first game of the girls junior varsity was against Norton and ended with a score of 25-10, 26-24. So the Trojans got their first win of the season. The junior varsity team won against Russell, Triplains/Brewster, Golden Plains, Wheatland/Grinnell, Oberlin, and Dighton. After their strong start, the girls lost to Ellis with the score of 15-25, 11-25. They also lost to Quinter.
Junior Abigail Graham started volleyball by going to a volleyball camp with friends just for fun! Abby’s favorite position to play is middle front or middle back. She didn’t have an idol at first but as she grew up she learned to love college volleyball, and she started looking up to players. We are very happy to have had Abby on our high school volleyball team.
Senior Haylee Tien started playing volleyball in the 6th grade and has loved it since then. As she grew up she looked up to older high school girls and upper-classmen. She loves to be libero and said that she has never been good at the front row and hitting but being the libero has given her an opportunity to play more in the back row where she loves to play.
Sophomore Jersey Voss started playing volleyball because all three of her sisters played and she played it growing up. Her role models were her sisters Harlee and Justice because Justice won state her senior year and Harlee was a great player. Her favorite position is middle hitter. Jersey was also asked if she had ever thought about quitting because of stress. She said yes, because of school and volleyball every night and most weekends, quitting has crossed her mind, but never enough to act on.
Finally, the varsity girls did very well. They came off with a strong start winning their first two games and losing the next but still being strong! Even with the girls losses, they came off very strong at league and won first. In conclusion all of the girls performed very well and the Logan family is very proud!

The 2020 XC season started off on September 3rd in Concordia, on a warm Thursday afternoon. We had two athletes running on varsity at Concordia, Junior Sam Pinkerton and Senior Dylan DeWitt. Sam took 8th and Dylan took 31st. “Well, it was pretty hard, it had a bunch of hills and dips. It was also really hot and humid,” said Dylan.
On September 10, they headed to Stockton where they ran at Webster Lake. Once again, we had two runners participate in varsity, Sam Pinkerton and Dylan DeWitt. Sam took 5th with a time of 19:21.1 and Dylan took 33rd with a time of 24:02.4. “The Stockton course was very similar to Concordia’s, both weather and terrain.” said Sam. “What keeps me motivated? Mostly having someone in front of me. Someone to motivate me to run faster and do better."
"I have trained myself just to run through most pain and negative thoughts,” said Dylan.
On October 1, they headed out to Beloit. Only Sam participated, and he placed 5th with a PR time of 17:48.9! “I was kind of stunned. I mean this is what I worked for all year, to break 18 minutes, and to do that felt great!” said Sam. On October 8th, they had a home meet in Phillipsburg.
The Phillipsburg team as a whole did not quite make the top 5, although junior Sam Pinkerton took 6th with a time of 19:12.6.
Next, he traveled to Lakeside. Sam took 1st in his heat and 3rd overall with a time of 18:04! “Honestly, it was thrilling. It felt good to get 1st in my heat and 3rd overall. I think they could've done us all together though because I think my time would've been better because I would've had someone to chase,” said Sam.
Sam participated in Regionals on October 24 at Tribune and took 6th with a time of 18:28. “Last year I placed 18th on a course I knew and loved and now I'm on a strange course in colder weather,” said Sam.
Sam then headed to State on October 31 and got 7th place!
Freshman Gabriel Rudd also participated for part of the cross-country season. “The season was difficult in the beginning, but it slowly got easier. The matches were difficult due to all of the other really great runners, but I truly enjoyed it,” said Gabe.

The Logan Junior High hosted the Huskies from Northern Valley on Thursday, Dec. 3 in the Logan Gym. These were the first games played after the KSHSSA decision which prohibited fans from attending. So, while this game traditionally packs the gym with fans from both sides cheering on their athletes, this game was just the opposite.
While the atmosphere wasn't what they were used to, the Trojans came out and played well for the fans at home who were watching by video. The B-team girls got off to a slow start and fell to the Huskies with a score of 8-12. From there on out, it was all Trojans as they dominated the rest of the night.
With a huge height advantage over the Valley, the B-team Trojans rolled over the Huskies 22-9. The A-team girls game was a little closer, with the Lady Trojans scoring 28 to the Husky's 19. In the final match-up of the night, the game was close in the first quarter, but the Trojans packed a punch in the 2nd quarter widening the gap and held on to the lead to the end with a final score of 44-28.
Next action for the Junior Trojans will be Thursday, Dec. 10 as they take on Paradise in the Damar gym.

In their season opener, the Logan Trojans hosted Wheatland/Grinnell on Friday, Dec. 4. With no JV girls game, the JV boys started off the night with two quarters of playing time. The Trojans struggled a bit allowing the Thunderhawks to get a jumpstart on them and the 7-1 lead early in the game. Down by 10 at one point in the game, the Trojans cut the lead by 1 and finished with the 11-20 loss.
With the gym already quiet without fans, the Lady Trojans didn't have much to cheer about as they struggled to put points on the board, ending the 3rd quarter down 9-18. They came alive in the 4th quarter though as Kenize Wells and Khloee Braun each drained 3-pointers, and Kirsten Marcotte added two, making the score 18-18 with 3:59 left on the clock. Another bucket by each team left the score 20-20 at the end of regulation. In overtime, the Trojans kept fighting, and with points from Wells, Abby Graham, Riley Delimont and Braun, they outscored the visitors 29-26. Senior Khloee Braun led the charge with 14 points and 14 rebounds, followed by Kenzie Wells with 8 points and Kirsten Marcotte with 7. Abby Graham pulled down 10 rebounds.
In the varsity boys match-up, the Trojans jumped to an early 14-10 lead in the first quarter. While they held that lead for the rest of the game, it was far from comfortable. Up by 5 at halftime, the Thunderhawks came close in the 3rd quarter, only down by 3. The Trojans extended their lead and with 1:53 on the clock, the score was 45-36. Wheatland wasn't done yet though as they added 11 points before the game ended. Senior Jadin Newell kept the Trojans on top with 4 points from the free throw line, and the Trojans hung on for the 51-47 win. Junior Trey Kats scored 14 for the night followed by senior Ian Sparks with 12. Sparks and Dylan Van Laeys both ended the night with 11 rebounds.
