First hurdle cleared.
Five first-half rushing touchdowns set in motion an easy night for West Noble Friday night in a 42-0 win over Fort Wayne Concordia in the opening game of the IHSAA Class 3-A Sectional 26 tournament.
Brogan Parks and Xymire Barnes-Bridges each rushed for two scores, Trey Shisler added another running score, and Shisler found Brayden Limerick for a passing score to cap the evening's scoreboard fireworks.
West Noble will stay in Ligonier next week to host Angola, who pulled a mild upset over No. 7 Tippecanoe Valley, 21-6. The rematch with the Hornets will begin at 7 p.m. on Charger Hill, the winner advancing to the sectional championship game on Nov. 7.

West Noble FFA has had a busy start to the school year. Earlier this October, junior high FFA members competed at the state Livestock Skillathon contest. Members of the team consisted of Easton Kootnz, Levi Wechter and Braxton Koontz. The team was 33rd out of 84.
The FFA also has been doing community service, and one of their projects was highway cleanup on US 33 near the West Noble campus. FFA advisor Khara Kimmel reported the group was able to pick up over 10 bags of trash to help keep our area clean and respectable.
Well done West Noble FFA!

Heartbreak in Syracuse this evening.
NorthWood played a complete game and proved the better team Saturday night in a stunning 3-1 win over No. 5 West Noble in the championship game at the Wawasee Volleyball Sectional.
The championship is the seventh straight for the Panthers, stifling West Noble's shot at winning its first since 2018.
The Lady Chargers finish its season 29-3 overall, winners of the NECC regular season and tournament championships and finish with the most wins in a season in team history.
Nothing at all to be ashamed of, and the future is bright as the program graduates just two players in Abby Seigel and Beverly Vizcaino.
Good luck to the Panthers as they carry on in the state tournament.

The end of the road is near for the West Noble Lightning Brigade following results from the Plymouth's ISSMA Scholastic Prelims on Saturday.
West Noble competed in the Scholastic B division and scored a Silver Rating, but wasn't able to qualify for further advancement in the state series, ending its fall competition season.
The Lightning Brigade will have one more performance this fall, set to perform this Friday at the West Noble home football game. Let's make sure we recognize these hardworking musicians one more time this fall!
Special thanks to Moorea Douglas for providing photos from The Rockpile in Plymouth at Saturday's performance.

It was a very good draw for West Noble football on Sunday night for the IHSAA football sectional tournament.
West Noble (6-2) drew Fort Wayne Concordia (1-7) in a home game in the first round of the Class 3-A Sectional 26 bracket, set to begin on Oct. 24. A West Noble win would have the Chargers either home against Angola in the semi-finals, or on the road at Tippecanoe Valley depending on which team wins between the Hornets or Vikings.
The sectional championship is set for Nov. 7, and could host depending on the opponent from the north half of the bracket.
The Chargers close out the regular season this Friday, Oct. 17, hosting Prairie Heights on Senior Night.
