We are through one week of the high school season and it's time to overreact in a good way and in a bad way from what we saw from teams in northern Nevada.
LOVELOCK - As with the usual news cycle, one day we read of an ugly incident, then the next day or so, it's out of our mind - that's even if it was known about at all.
RENO - Under the lights of Mackay Stadium and with a national audience watching, Nevada will host Pac-12 foe Washington State on Friday night.
FERNLEY - Raise your hand if you saw that one coming. Maybe for the exception of fans in Fernley, not many hands were going up.
If the first two tournaments are any indication, it looks like Lowry and Elko are going to be atop the Division I-A girls golf standings once again.
FERNLEY - While its freshmen and varsity counterparts had the opportunity to play a game already, the Lowry High School junior varsity football team hit the field for the first time this past Friday night in Fernley.

The high school boys that play golf in northern Nevada would have been jealous of this day. The boys play in the spring and usually get the much harsher weather conditions.
Like most of the sports in the Division I-A North, there is no clear-cut favorite that will run away with the league title. That can be said for boys soccer this season.
