The Dogies dove into
their 2020-2021 season Nov.
30, and though only seven-
young men make up the team,
head coach Doug Scribner is
looking forward to seeing what
they can accomplish this year.
“I think the season is looking
really good,” he nodded. “We
only graduated Austen Kenney
from last year’s team, so pretty
much everyone is returning, so
that’s awesome.”
Making up the roster this
season are seniors James Cox,
Conrad Prell and Grayson
Ramsey, juniors Zade Orsbom,
Robert Humes and Travis
Scribner, and a freshman new'
to the squad this season is
Ramsey Gross.
Of these returning swim-
mers, Cox qualified for the state
meet in the 100 Backstroke
and the 100 Butterfly, Orsborn
qualified in the 200 Free and
100 Butterfly and Humes
punched his ticket in the 50
Free. Humes was also close to

The Dogie/Bobcat wres-
tling crew are excited to open
up their season in just a few
short days, and co-head coach
Lee McCoy is just as excited
as his squad. Having only lost
two seniors from last year’s
team, and returning a two-
time state champion, as well
as several others who quali-
fied for the state tournament
has McCoy and co—head coach
Jason Wheeler ready to see
what their guys can do.
“We are very excited about
getting to have a wrestling
season, because I was a little
worried a couple of weeks
ago,” McCoy admitted. “It’s
great to have a nice, solid group

Dogies Win post—season honOrs
Sonja Karp
NLJ Sports Reporter
Fall sports claim one last hurrah
before giving way to winter sports
which are poised to begin this weekend.
Football and volleyball announced
post-season honors in November, and
several Dogies and Lady Dogies got the
nod from coaches across the conference
and state.
There was one Dogie who was
named to both the All-Conference and
All-State teams, as senior Kale Corley
let his actions do the talking on the
gridiron this season.
“‘Leave it all on the field’ was what
Kale did in his four years of Dogie
football,” Conzelman nodded. “His
hard work and commitment off-season
and during the season lead him to be a
contender in defensive stats statewide.”
Corley finished his career as a Dogie
fourth overall for defensive points in
All-Classes of Wyoming football, and
third in defensive points in the 2A
Conference. He had 107 tackles on the
season with a total of 232 in his high
school career. As primarily a defensive
and offensive line player in his first
three years, Corley got to dabble in car-
rying the ball this season and put some
impressive stats in that area as well.
“Kale had the second most rushing
yards on the team and scored his
first career touchdown this season,”
Conzelman beamed. “He will be greatly
missed by the Dogie football team
and staff, but as I always say, ‘Once a
Dogie, always a Dogie.”’
Holden McConkey was named to
the 2A East All-Conference team this
season. The sophomore saw some time
on the varsity field as a freshman, but
(his role expanded greatly this year.
“Speed, focus and drive was shown

by Holden’s level of play this season,”
Conzelman nodded. “Anytime he was
on the field, he gave his all and lefi his
mark.”
McConkey finished the season as
the Dogies’ leading rusher with 460
yards, and he racked up four touch—
downs in the process. He also led the
Dogies in all—purpose yardage with 804
yards. McConkey was also a force on
the defensive side of the ball as he
finished second on the team with 48
tackles.
“Holden was also a great asset on
special teams and had 346 yards in
punting and kick returns,” Conzelman
added. “It’s exciting to see what he will
accomplish in the next couple of years.”
The Dogies had three players who
earned Honorable Mention to the All—
Conference team as well. Juniors Aiden
Chick and Josh Womack and sopho-
more Hogan Tystad drew some atten—

tion throughout the season.
As wide receiver, Chick led the
Dogies in receptions with 195 yards,
and he ended the year with 276 all-
purpose yards as well. As a defensive
back, Chick finished the season with 28
tackles and six interceptions. v
“Chick’s speed, quickness and
defensive anticipation were a ‘package
deal’ during the season,” Conzelman
began. “It will be exciting to watch him
on both sides of the ball next season!”
Tystad finished the season with
41 tackles and two interceptions, was
second in receptions with 172 yards,
and punted for the Dogies averaging
31.7 yards per punt with his longest
sailing 54 yards.
“Hogan showed much growth during
the season, and with his knowledge of
the game, he transitioned easily to new
