TOUGH LOSSES FOR LADY BRAVES

TOUGH LOSSES FOR LADY BRAVES
Annika Tank goes for the dig

    Britton-Hecla’s volleyball squad had victory within its grasp in both of its contests in the past week but both matches slipped away as the Lady Braves have now dropped four of its last five matches after getting off to an 11-2 start.
    The Lady Braves rolled to a 25-15 opening-set win over Sisseton in their homecoming match last week Tuesday and had opportunities to go up 2-0 in set two but lost a 31-29 decision.  Then Sisseton added a couple of close 25-22, 25-23 decision to get the win.
    On Thursday Coach Jenna Peters’ club was hoping to avenge a 25-23, 25-20 loss to Milbank in the Great Plains Lutheran Tournament a week earlier and had the Bulldogs in trouble with narrow 26-24, 26-24 wins in the first two sets.  But Milbank rallied to post 25-17, 25-15, 15-12 victories for the comeback win.
    Britton-Hecla stood at 12-6 heading into a home date with Waubay-Summit (1-14) last night Tuesday.  The Lady Braves travel to Aberdeen Roncalli on Thursday and Groton Area comes to town on Monday.

Poll: END OR RETAIN EXPANDED MEDICAID COVERAGE? South Dakota voters will decide in November on a proposed constitutional amendment that would end the state’s expanded Medicaid coverage if the federal government’s share of funding for the expansion falls below 90%. The expansion, approved by voters in 2022, provides Medicaid eligibility to certain adults ages 19 to 64 with incomes up to the federal limit established by the constitutional amendment. The proposed amendment would remove that expanded coverage if the federal funding level drops below 90%. If the election were held today, how would you vote?
