SHERIDAN — A senior matched with a freshman was just the right pair Sheridan High School needed to clinch a 4A tennis title.

Faurot said it’s unusual for a freshman to earn a prime spot on the varsity. However, Katschke benefited from playing with her sister growing up.

SHERIDAN — The Broncs football program is as strong as ever. Reaching a high point for a football tradition as resilient as Sheridan is no easy task to achieve. That’s where the Broncs stand as they have won a school-record 31 consecutive games. Head coach Jeff Mowry is one of many that have claimed state titles. He has led the team to four of 30 program championship wins. If there were a secret sauce to Sheridan’s success it would have been found by a 4A class foe by now.
