Noah is the first NK boy at the Avenger Invite.   Both teams had great showings despite not running full varsity teams

Maddy is the first NK girl at the Avenger Invite. 

We seem to have a rainbow moment in every season.  This one comes at the Avenger Invite and the girls take a moment to enjoy the view

Little did we know there was a reason for the rainbow.  There was gold left over from the trail project that the contractor forgot from the 4 billion dollar project.
