 110

 That was the lucky lottery number for the Boone Central Cardinals Tuesday.

 On a warm but breezy day in Albion, Boone scored 110 points in both the girls and boys competition in the B-4 District track and field event, winning team championships in both divisions. The Cardinals also emerged with 17 qualifiers for the 2024 Nebraska State Track and Field Championships in Omaha May 15-16.

Some 35 bullriders from Nebraska and seven other states competed in the 29th annual Gateway to the Sandhills Bullride at the Niewohner Arena in Albion last Saturday night, March 16. Nebraskans won the top two placings, with Cooper Kursave of Arcadia in first place and Ben Wood of Greeley finishing second. About 800 people attended the event sponsored by Albion FFA Alumni.
