Blackhawks are Conference and District Champions

The Adrian Blackhawks are celebrating! Rightfully so. After starting the 2006 season 0-3, the Blackhawks fought and scraped their way back to finish the season 6-3. The Black and Gold captured the Western Missouri Conference title and the District Championship with a 35-15 victory over the Appleton City Bulldogs last Thursday night on the turf of Vernon W. "Prof" Welch Field. The Blackhawks' win placed them into the state Class 1 playoffs. They hosted the Lockwood Tigers on Wednesday, November 8. (See complete story next week).
