Jackets encounter a herd of large speedy Longhorns at area playoff

13-0 Gordon tramples Menard en route to likely back-to-back state championships
  • Beloved Menard coach Jeffrey Campbell, right, consoles junior Tate Wagner (#30) after the Jackets' loss to #1 Gordon last week in the area playoff round. Menard was yet another victim in the Gordon Longhorns undefeated season. The defending state champs, Gordon, has not played a third quarter in more than 2 seasons, as they tend to 45 their opponents by the half. This group 45'd fellow 6-man powerhouse Westbrook last year in the state championship. Nora Davis, photo.
