Iuka lady pirates beat Wayne city on 8th grade night 12-0. Katee S., with the help of her solid defense behind her, threw a no-hitter with 10 strikeouts. Lilly M. had 2 hits and 2 RBI, Emily J. with 2hits and RBI. Elaina D. had a hit with a RBI, Kenzie M. and Kenley C. had a hit. The Lady Pirates play at Bluford tomorrow night.

Pirate Nation: If you were attending one of our softball or baseball games, the cost for a Slim Jim is $1.00. We had a nice person fill in for our regular person who did not know they were $1.00 and charged 25 cents for them at a recent game. The school makes roughly 33 cents off of the sale of a Slim Jim. We are sorry for the confusion and we are thankful we had someone willing to fill in to work in the concession stand. Thank you for support Pirate activities and athletics!

We will be celebrating our 8th students who play baseball or softball. For Softball, their 8th grade night will be Thursday, September 7 at 4:30 against Wayne City. Baseball will be Friday, September 8 at 4:30 against North Clay. In the event of a rain out, 8th grade night would be at the next available home game!
