Football team loses season-opening squeakerFootballBy Aliyah Hudson, Mariah Madsen and Meg Wolstenholm

Warrior football team members kicked-off their sea-son Friday, falling to Aberdeen Central by a point 7-6 in Aberdeen.

Both teams gave it their all on defense in the low-scoring affair. The Warriors started the first half off strong, scoring the only touchdown of the half as quarterback junior Jack Schelhaas scored on the final play of the half on a 1-yard touchdown run.

The Eagles came back in the second half and scored with only 6:46 left to play, putting them in the lead with a successful extra-point.

The game ended when the Eagles blocked what would be the winning field goal attempt by freshman Brock Walker.

Senior cornerback Ian Ailts said the defense played really well and the Warrior offense

moved the ball. “We just couldn’t finish and

came up short,” Ailts said. Senior and center Tryg

Anderson also was optimistic about the game.

“I liked our effort and we played very hard,” Anderson said. “All our dedication in the summer paid off in the first game, even though the outcome did not come out as planned.”

The Warriors will next visit Roosevelt at Howard Wood Friday at 7 p.m. Fan dress theme is black out.

Varsity volleyball team members defeated Brandon Valley in consecutive sets 25-18, 25-21 and 25-23 Saturday in Metro Conference action at WHS.

The Warriors were led by senior Rochelle Ramharter with 12 kills, junior Maddie Wiley with 31 set assists, junior Jamie Kayl with 11 digs and junior Caryn Hazard with three ace serves.

Wiley said the team has improved since their season opener with Moorhead, Minn.

“I think we did better from our first game, but still need to improve to reach the goals we set for ourselves,” Wiley said.

Senior Halle Randall said the team has been working hard in practice this last week.

“We know we’ll have to come out strong and work our hardest, because RHS is always a tough opponent.”

The team will host Roosevelt Thursday at WHS.

In sub-varsity action, the Warriors were less success-ful. The JV, sophomore and Freshman A Teams all lost in three sets, while the Freshman B lost in two sets to Brandon Valley.

Warrior cross country team members got a running start on the season as they traveled to a rare night meet

Friday in Canby, Minn. The Warriors competed in the first-ever Late

Night Invitational on a rainy evening, as the varsity boys team finished fourth while the girls team came in second place, overall.

For the boys, senior Logan Swenson finished third out of the 65 participants. Sophomore Kelsi Kearney came in sixth to pace the Warrior girls.

Coach Mike Schultz said it was a great event for the first meet of the year.

“This was the first ever Late Night Invite,”

Schultz said. “The runners ran under the lights later than we normally run. I think the kids really had a lot of fun, despite getting rained on at the end of the boys race,” he said.

Both the boys and girls JV teams finished first in the JV meet, with freshman Topher Zahn leading the boys in first place and freshman Aislynn Manley finishing first for the girls.

Senior Logan Swenson is proud of how the team ran.

“The team looked strong even though it was our first meet of the season and our first time running at this course,” Swenson said.

The Warriors will continue their season today as they compete in the Mack Butler City Meet this afternoon at Kuehn Park.

Cross country team opens season at rare night meetVarsity runs well, JV teams both take first place

By Hannah SmithAs the 2014-15 school year gets off

to a running start, high school basket-ball fans are already anticipating the upcoming season.

While many familiar faces will be returning to the girls basketball program, a relatively new face will be making an appearance in both the WHS hallways and on the basketball court.

After a very successful 10 years of coaching girls basketball at WHS, including three state titles, Nate Malchow announced his resignation

as head coach at the end of last year to accept

the position of activities principal at WHS, opening up the girls basketball head coach position.

Jamie Parish is familiar with the WHS basketball program after recently serving as the sophomore boys assistant coach. Parish previ-ously taught in the Sioux Falls School District at Hawthorne Elementary for the past two years.

While this will be Parish’s first year coaching a AA Team, the Yankton native and Augustana College gradu-ate has a few years of experience coaching high school basketball under

his belt. Before serving as an assistant boys coach at WHS, Parish served as the head girls coach at Vermillion from 2003-09, leading the Tanagers to a Class A State Championship in 2007, before taking up the head girls coaching position in Centerville from 2010-12.

The Warrior girls finished the 2013-14 season with their third Class AA State Championship in seven years. While Coach Parish knows the program’s successful history, he says he is keeping high expectations for the upcoming season.

“The athletes have to be willing to put in the effort and be prepared to work,” Parish said. “There are high expectations, but we have a lot of tal-ented, young players who work hard and put in the extra time.”

Parish said while he is anxious to be taking over such a well-known program, he is fortunate to be able to stay in the WHS family.

“I’ve known Coach Malchow for about 15 years, before he was even coaching at WHS and was head coach at Roosevelt,” he said. “I’ve followed the Warrior basketball teams, and it is a very successful program.”

Along with coaching, Parish will be teaching various classes, including

Health and Wellness, Basic Strength Training, Sports and Fitness and Team Sports.

So far, Parish said his experience at WHS has been enjoyable.

“A lot of the students have already introduced themselves to me, along with about 40 of the players from the girls team,” Parish said. “I’ve known some of the staff for a while and everybody has been very helpful.”

Parish said he will welcome any girls who want to be a part of the team and are willing to work hard.

History.com (MCT)On this day in 1969,

America’s first automat-ic teller machine (ATM) made its public debut, dispensing cash to customers at Chemical Bank in Rockville Center, New York.

ATMs went on to revolutionize the bank-ing industry, eliminat-ing the need to visit a bank to conduct basic financial transactions. By the 1980s, these money machines had become widely popular and handled many of the functions previously performed by human tellers, such as check deposits and money transfers between accounts. Today, ATMs are as indispensable to most people as cell phones and e-mail.

Several inven-tors worked on early versions of a cash-dispensing machine, but Don Wetzel, an executive at Docutel, a Dallas company that developed automated baggage-handling equipment, is generally credited as coming up with the idea for the modern ATM. Wetzel reportedly conceived of the concept while waiting on line at a bank. The ATM that debuted in New York in 1969 was only able to give out cash, but in 1971, an ATM that could handle multiple functions, including providing customers’ account balances, was introduced.

ATMs eventually expanded beyond the confines of banks and today can be found everywhere from gas stations to convenience stores to cruise ships. There is even an ATM at McMurdo Station in Antarctica.
