The 7th grade boys battled a strong Havana team, falling 44-15. Konlee Ashby led the Raiders with 6 points, while Colton Basset added 5. Although the score wasn't reflective of their effort, the boys continued to compete hard and showed improvement throughout the game.

The 8th grade boys earned a 39-13 victory over Havana. Ethan Brotherton led the way with 13 points, followed by Reid Sidders with 11 and Evan Kolves with 6. The Raiders played outstanding team defense, creating steals and fast-break opportunities while demonstrating great teamwork and sportsmanship.

The 8th grade girls picked up an impressive 39-30 win over previously undefeated Peoria Christian. Kynlie Hilst paced the offense with 17 points, Kallie Herrman added 12, Libby DuWaldt contributed 7, and Emma Deluhery chipped in 3.

Congratulations to Midwest Central Middle School's very own Katlynn Riviere on being selected to perform her flute with the 2026 ILMEA District 4 Junior Concert Band!

On Saturday, November 7, Katlynn traveled to Western Illinois University in Macomb, where she joined the ensemble for a full day of rehearsals, culminating in an afternoon concert. This year's festival featured students representing 116 schools across District 4!

Being selected for this ensemble is a wonderful accomplishment and a reflection of Katlynn's hard work and dedication to music. Throughout the experience, she demonstrated a positive attitude, strong work ethic, and respect for those around her, making her an outstanding representative of Midwest Central.

We're proud of Katlynn for both her musical achievement and the way she represented our school. Congratulations, Katlynn!
