2018 Hoisington Winter Jam Otis-Bison Cougars vs Hoisington Cardinals 1-19-18

The last game for the fourth day meant one last spot for the Boys Championship game for the 2018 Hoisington Winter Jam. The Otis-Bison Cougars faced off against the hosting Hoisington Cardinals.

Hoisington came into the game with a plan to limit the scoring threats of the Cougars. They took way many opportunities for Clade Anderson and left the work on the shoulders of Maitland Wiltse. Wiltse accounted for almost half of Otis-Bison’s 46 points, but the Cardinals totaled 58 on the night.

The win means the Cardinals will play for a chance to be Hoisington Winter Jam Champions for a third straight year.

Otis-Bison Football vs St. John 9-1-17

The start of a new season presents a team with a clean slate to the year. Walking onto the field for the first time, both sides are 0-0. The question that hands over the field is what’s going to happen when the whistle blows and a foot connects with a football for the first time?

The Otis-Bison Cougars traveled to face the St. John Tigers for the season opener. Both teams came into the game with short rosters. The Cougars suited up only fourteen players, the Tigers nine.

The Cougars quickly piled up the points on the board with only three plays from scrimmage and two pick sixes that made the score 20 to 0 with only six minutes and change remaining in the first quarter. St. John did control the clock and were able to move the ball some, but they failed to truly threaten to score.

By the end of the first half, the Cougars registered 58 points on the board to the Tigers 0. The game ended at halftime due to the 45-point rule.

Below are some of the pictures I took at the game:

2017 Hoisington Winter Jam LaCrosse Girls vs Otis-Bison 1-20-17

Some teams just cannot avoid each other. The Otis-Bison Lady Cougars and the LaCrosse Lady Leopards already faced off twice this season.

The third meeting came in the Hoisington Winter Jam’s Girls Semi-Final.

The Lady Cougars started the game with a nine to nothing run before LaCrosse put up their first points. Otis-Bison held the lead going into Halftime and extended it farther in the third quarter. Then the Lady Leopards roared back and narrowed the margin to four at point.

LaCrosse never found the combination to put them over the top and the Lady Cougars took their tenth straight victory of the year by a score of 61 to 55.

Below are some of the pictures I took at the game:
