Our Kinders have been celebrating Groundhogs day today! We made a graph to show who thought spring would come and who thought we would have 6 more weeks of winter. Most of us were sad to hear that we will be having 6 more weeks of winter. We also made groundhog headbands to celebrate!

Richfield Springs-Owen D. Young 62 / Cherry Valley-Springfield 59 @ Cherry Valley RSO vs. CVS was a physical affair that went down to the wire. The Indians prevailed by the narrowest of margins 62-59. The difference was team execution in crunch time. Dylan Hosford had 26 and Austin Bowman put together 18 points in really gritty efforts to seal the win. CVS's Kyle France was outstanding going for seven threes totaling 27 points. The win keeps the Indians in a three way tie for first place in the TVL at 8-2. RSO patiently awaits the outcome of Morris vs GMU on Wednesday night. A loss by Morris secures a home TVL playoff game for RSO. A Morris win will send the Indians to Franklin for the first round of the TVL Playoffs.

Congratulations to Lauren Johnson and the Central Valley Academy Girls and Boys Indoor Track Team. Lauren and her team won the TVL Pioneer Championship Friday night at Utica College.
