The Woodlawn Bears competed earlier this week in Hot Springs at the Arkansas Game and Fish Generation Conservation competition in Hot Springs. The competitions included air rifle, archery, STEM, field data collection, JR Cadet Challenge, wildlife identification, photography, videography, duck calling, casting and many other outdoor activities. This is the first year that Woodlawn has competed in these activities but still had a strong showing. Miles West placed 1st in the air rifle competition for the high school division and Rylan Williams placed 3rd place in the duck calling for the middle school division!
The Bears football team concluded the regular season Friday night with victories over the Brinkley Tigers. The JR Bears began the evening with a 36-8 victory. The win gave the Bears the South Conference championship with an undefeated conference record.
The Senior Bears dominated the Tigers from the opening kickoff and produced their first undefeated season since 2018, the first year the program played 8-man football, with a 50-18 victory over the Tigers. The win also ensured the Bears and outright conference championship for the first time since 2007. The Bears will be facing off in a rematch with the Midland Mustangs in the first round of the 8-Man playoffs on Friday, November 14th at 7:00 pm.
The Lady Bear Cheerleaders also placed 2nd in sideline cheer in their first competition of the season this past Saturday.
Basketball is just around the corner! The JR Bears and Lady Bears start off their season Tuesday November 11th at Camden Harmony-Grove and the SR Bears and Lady Bears will tip off their season against Nemo Vista on Thursday night at the Carl Jones Sports Complex.
Big week for the Bears!!! Be sure to check our website and social media for ticket information for the playoff game!
