3 years ago tonight we lost one of the all-time greats at St. Albert, Jill White from… Carroll.
Today here son, Carter had the final out in… Carroll.
🙏
And in the first 30 seconds this happened.... Bailey White notched her 1,000th (!) career point. It was AWESOME. Words can hardly describe. CONGRATS, Kid!
Thank you
@KETV
for your beautiful lead story on Jill White tonight.
Your continued coverage of St. Albert, Council Bluffs and Southwest Iowa continues to be much appreciated!
A year after winning the State Title with a big/great Senior class, the Falcons follow it up with a Runner-Up finish in 2019!! Amazing work coaches & athletes!
Did we mention we don’t even have a track...
Our deepest condolences to the BVU & Lewis Central communities. Our condolences, thoughts and Prayers to the entire Edwards family during this extremely difficult time.
Evan’s mother, Marsha was a longtime elementary teacher at St. Albert.
Eternal rest grant unto, Evan O Lord…
We are so deeply devastated by the loss of our brother. Evan Edwards is a wonderful example of what a student-athlete should be. He dedicated his time to become a better student-athlete everyday. His immense heart for our team and the game will be forever emboldened in our minds.
Please keep St. Albert Dad, Marcel M. in your prayers tonight and this weekend as he’s currently in critical condition in the hospital fighting various ailments.
🙏
