WORLAND - After making it four straight 3A East conference championships two weeks ago, the Worland High School girls swim team begin their bid for some state hardware today in Gillette at the 3A State Girls Swim Meet. In an interview Wednesday, Coach Mike Blissett said, "This is the first year we've had the two weeks [off before state]." In previous years the conference meet has been right before the state meet but he said he and the team looked forward to the extra week for practicing working on technique.

WORLAND — After winning three straight matches to take third place at last weekend’s 3A East Regional Volleyball Tournament, the Worland Lady Warriors kick off the state tournament today at 2:30 p.m. The Lady Warriors quarterfinal matchup at the state tournament will be the Star Valley Lady Braves, the defending state champions.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Brock Osweiler knows just how to turn the Denver Broncos’ quarterback switch into more than a temporary gig. “Ball security is job security,” Osweiler said. Doesn’t Trevor Siemian know it. Siemian’s half dozen turnovers during Denver’s three-game losing streak cost him his starting job 48 hours after his three ugly interceptions wasted a strong defensive effort in a 29-19 loss at Kansas City. “It came down to what’s best for our football team and frankly, what’s best for Trevor’s future,” coach Vance Joseph said Wednesda...

WORLAND – After a change of plea agreement on Wednesday, Fifth Judicial District Court Judge Robert Skar sentenced Trae Huerta, 18, of Worland, to five years supervised probation for the crime of conspiracy to commit aggravated burglary, while Huerta acted as a lookout for a botched drug robbery that ended with the victim being shot by an accomplice of Huerta’s.

BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — U.S. wildlife managers are revisiting a pending proposal to protect a rare, cold-water insect, after scientists confirmed its presence in new locations in Wyoming and Montana, officials said Wednesday. The newly found populations of western glacier stonefly appear to face the same problem as the original population in and around Glacier National Park, where habitat loss due to climate change is reducing water flows in the mountain streams where the insects live. “We expect climate change to be acting range-wide, even in...
