Mrs. Cain's Fashion and Interior Design class had Mrs. Pamela Kronenberger in class today teaching them how to create seasonal floral arrangements using elements of design such as color and alignment.
The Colts outlast Pocahontas 44-32. It wasn't always pretty, but as former Razorback coach Nolan Richardson would say "a raggedy ride is better than a smooth walk." The Colts move to 2-2 on the year and 1-0 in conference.
QB Cavonta Washington connected on 14 of his 20 passes for 168 yards and 2TDs and run in a touchdown. WR Budda Harris had another big game with 2 spectacular TD catches on his way to a 5 catch - 77 yard night. Michael Rainer ran 19 times for 182 yards and 2TDs including an amazing 15 yard run with about a minute left in the game to nail the coffin shut. Rainer had 7 receptions for 54 yards. On defense, Wyatt Lancaster put up a monster 21 tackle game. From his defensive tackle position, Quinshunn Perry had an big-time 17 tackle night. Jayden Young and Jakavion Williams had 14 and 12 tackles respectively.
GO COLTS!

It’s GAME DAY again…finally! The Colts were off last week, but start back with a bang this week because it’s conference season. Rivercrest will face off against the Pocahontas Redskins tonight at The TEZ. Kickoff is slated for 7pm.
The Colts look to get back in the win column after dropping their last two games to highly ranked 5A schools. After what has been a challenging and injury-riddled non-conference slate, the Colts are sitting at 1-2 on the young season. QB Cavonta Washington has connected on nearly 60% of his passes for 381 yards and 5TDs. His favorite targets have been senior Michael Rainer (10 rec - 182yds 3TDs) and sophomore Budda Harris (11 rec - 172 yards 2TDs). Harris had a breakout game last week catching 10 passes for 163 yards. Wyatt Lancaster leads the Colt defense with 26 tackles, 6 tackles for a loss, 6 QB hurries, and 1.5 sacks. Joe Louis Ralph and Jayden Young have 20 and 18 tackles respectively. Young returned a fumble last week for a school record 103 yards.
Coming off a 4A-3 conference championship last season, the Redskins look to make a mark on the 2023 season after starting 0-3. Pocahontas, like the Colts, played a tough non-conference schedule and are hoping it pays off. Junior QB D.J. Coffey has been the main playmaker on the ground and through the air. 6’3” 250lb senior running back, Reagan Womack, is tough to bring down and helps clear the way for the Redskins’ rushing attack.
Rivercrest leads the all-time series 11-4 and is 6-1 at home with the last loss coming in 2006. Pocahontas won last year’s game 28-21.
Come and out to The TEZ, get loud, and support your Colts! If you can’t make it, we’ll have all of the action live on YouTube on Rivercrest Athletics. GO COLTS!
