Centralia Boys over Onaga, 51-13

Due to a high number of flu and confirmed influenza cases in the Doniphan West school system they have cancelled school for the remainder of the week.
Thus, the Jr. High basketball game scheduled for Thursday, December 13 @ D. West is cancelled. We will work with them to find a make-up date for this event.

Tonight’s JH game schedule has been changed with Flint Hills Christian. The girls game has been canceled, and there will only be one boys game. Therefore, the boys game will begin at 6pm. There will be no gate charged for entry into this game.

The USD 322 BOE and Farmers State Bank sponsored the Senior Citizen Christmas Luncheon on Wednesday. It was well attended. The HS Student Council members served and waited on our guests of honor. Big thank you to all who pitched in to make this happen. Good day to be a Buffalo!!!
