IT’S GAMEDAY and your Colts are back at The TEZ tonight as they play host to the Highland Rebels for another 4A-3 matchup. Kickoff is slated for 7pm.
The Colts evened their record at 3-3 overall and improved to 2-1 in conference after beating Westside 42-14 last Friday. Highland is 1-5 overall and 0-3 in conference after dropping their last games including a 64-36 loss to Blytheville Friday night.
Highland has been led by sophomores QB Zac Huckabee and RB Keagan Statler. Huckabee ran for a score and threw a 20yd TD pass against Blytheville. Statler had a pair of touchdown runs last week from 20 and 45 yards out.
Rivercrest’s sophomore QB Cavonta Washington had a breakout game against Westside connecting on 15 of his 20 passes for 235 yards and 3TDs. Washington also ran for 155 yards and a score on just 13 carries. His 390 total yards set a sophomore school record. WR Michael Rainer grabbed 4 catches for 106 yards and 3TDs last week which was good enough to move him into 2nd place in all-time career receiving yards at Rivercrest. RB Koby Turner has rushed for 617 yards and 11TDs. On defense, Marcus Slayton notched his third game with 16 or more tackles this year. His 75 tackles on the season are good for 3rd in the 4A classification. Wyatt Lancaster’s monster 3-sack game Friday night gave him 5 sacks for the season which lands him at #2 in the entire 4A classification.
Rivercrest leads the series against Highland, 6-1. The Colts won last year’s meeting 42-28. The last game played at The TEZ versus Highland came in 2018; a game the Colts won 44-20.
Come out this evening, get loud, and cheer on the Colts!


Mrs. Holt's 6th-grade students enjoyed the nice weather and some friendly competition while playing musical chairs for their story review.



Freshmen recently toured the Be Pro Be Proud bus at ANC. Students had the simulated opportunity to drive a train and big rig truck, weld, work a crane, work on an engine, and explore a bucket truck and controls. Students also used VR goggles to explore other virtual occupations.
