Sheridan HS Football: The Sheridan High School football team passed another test, this time on the road this past Friday at Campbell County 28-to-10.
The team was down 10-nothing mid-way through the 2nd quarter, before getting things together.
Gauge Rodgers’ 85-yard pick 6 in the 4th quarter kept the momentum on Sheridan’s side for good.
Head Coach Jeff Mowry says the main problem in the first half was that the Broncs were over-doing things.

With the win, Sheridan secures the #1 seed for the upcoming 4A playoffs, but there is one more game in the regular season to be played.
That game is this coming Friday at home vs. Laramie, which is also senior night.
Should the Broncs win that game, the team would break the state record, for longest home winning streak, as that would be #32.
Big Horn/Tongue River HS Football: Big Horn did not have much trouble as the team went on the road and shut out rival Tongue River 55-zip, to secure the East #1 seed for the upcoming 2A playoffs.

Johnson County HS Football: Buffalo lost at Douglas 41-3, to put their playoff hopes in question.
The Bison can make the 3A playoffs with a win this coming Friday at home vs. Lander, or if Torrington loses at home vs. Douglas.

Buffalo can get the East #2 seed with a win, and if Douglas loses.
