TMS comes back to win

Thermopolis Middle School came away with a 40-30 win at their first game, against Lander Saturday, though it wasn't easy.

Coach CJ Scholl stated, "It was a great hard fought game. We were down 6-24 at one point but the boys came together great and worked hard to get back in the game. Once we got back into the game the momentum was in their hands and they did fantastically. I was very proud of the pride the boys showed by not letting the score get to them. Both Offense and Defense performed very well."

On Tuesday, the boys traveled to take on Rocky Mountain at Basin. Though they found themselves down 6-34 at the half, they didn't allow another point the rest of the game and were able to come back and finish 30-34.

Coach Scholl stated, "The boys fought very hard, but we dug ourselves into too big of a hole." He was happy the team never stopped fighting and gave their all.

The middle school will next take on Worland at home, Thursday, Sept. 22 beginning at 4:30 p.m.
