Grenada High School girls basketball Coach Kendrick Conley gives instructions to his players during last Friday’s game with J.Z. George.
A win is a win.
That’s the best way to summarize last Friday’s Grenada High School girls basketball game against J.Z. George.
Head Coach Kendrick Conley wanted to make sure a lot of players saw action on Senior Night against Class 2A Lady Jaguars. The end result was a 62-47 win as the Lady Chargers improved to 17-5 on the season.
The boys made it a clean sweep with a 59-52.
“We wanted to play a lot of players and the game got sloppy,” Conley said. “Still, we were able to do enough to win.”
Senior Carlei Brown led the offense with 20 points 17 rebounds.

The sky must have fallen. I never thought it could happen. But it did. I actually agreed with most of what liberal Robert Wise wrote in the NSS on January 30. He criticized Trump for his statements on taking over Greenland. Trump antagonized the Danes {owners of Greenland) and also NATO with his brash approach. If he had taken a softer approach, he would have gained friends instead of generating bad feelings. They would have been grateful to him and to the USA for setting up a "golden dome" defense for them (and also for us) at the northernmost extremity of their Greenland island.

Perhaps I heard the phrase “can’t see the forest for the trees” prior to “Different Drum” (1967) by the Stone Poneys (which song launched Linda Ronstadt to superstardom) —
“But honey child I’ve got my doubts
You can’t see the forest for the trees”

A college classmate who lives in Minneapolis and has been in the state legislature recently shared an account of Immigration and Customs Enforcement policing in Willmar, Minnesota, a town of 21,000 in the center of the state. It is not a happy story.
