Thanks to the recent snow storm and more predicted in the weather forecasts, the schedules for the Laramie Plainsmen and Lady Plainsmen soccer teams have been adjusted. The changes affect the matches against Cheyenne Central and Cheyenne East this weekend. We've also received word from LHS Track and Field on cancellations.

Behind a career-high 31 points from Tyler Loose, the Laramie Plainsmen battled back and topped Cheyenne Central for a third time this season with a 63-58 victory Friday night in the semifinals of the 4A East Regional Tournament in Gillette. LHS ended the game with a 10-0 run to complete their comeback. They will play for the regional title against the home-standing Camels Saturday afternoon.

It took less than one calendar year. Ted Holmstrom has officially resigned as the head football coach of the Laramie Plainsmen. He steps aside after a 1-8 season in 2012 and held the position about 11 months. It also means that Laramie High School will begin a search for their 5th head football coach in the last decade.

Ten teams will descend on War Memorial Stadium on November 9-10 in hopes of winning a state title as Laramie hosts the 2012 Wyoming State Championships for all five classes of high school football.

In two weeks, War Memorial Stadium will host the five Wyoming High School Football State Championship games for a fourth consecutive year. Ten teams from around Wyoming will converge on the Gem City to see if they can earn bragging rights for their school and if all that hard work culminates in a title.

For the third year, the Wyoming State High School Football Championships will be held in War Memorial Stadium in Laramie. Five championship games will be played on November 11th and 12th in a great opportunity to showcase Laramie and the University of Wyoming.

The Laramie Plainsmen will bring home the 2nd place trophy from the class 4A 2011 Wyoming State Basketball Tournament after a 60-33 loss to the Gillette Camels in the championship game.

The Laramie Plainsmen swim team won their third consecutive 4A State Championship Friday in Gillette. Laramie broke three state records, took two individual titles and accumulated 286 points, which put them 88 points ahead of the second place team.

The Wyoming High School Activities Association (WHSAA) Board of Directors on Tuesday decided that the State Football Championships will be held in Laramie for the next three years.
