Hello, An update on the homecoming game on Friday. In the best of interest of the players and fans it has been decided not to play the homecoming game here at North Star. There are many variables that we had to take into account, with the number one being safety for the players and the fans. There are several key factors that have not been completed as of today, which includes 1. Lights and a scoreboard 2. Press Box 3. Landscaping around the field 4. Field Markings to paint the field. 5. There is also a strong chance of rain for the end of this week which could cause several problems on the field as well as around the field. The Homecoming game will be played at Leeds starting at 7:00 pm. Thank you for your understanding.

Congratulations to the Lady Bearcat golfers today by placing 3rd in Region 3. The team has qualified for the State Meet to be held at Mapleton golf course on September 25th & 26th. Congratulations to Elle Nicholas for placing 2nd and being named Region 3 Senior Athlete of the Year. (not pictured Claire Jorde) #wearenorthstar
