CEDAR RAPIDS — OK, so Cedar Rapids Washington had to go ahead and take some of the hype away. But tonight’s Linn-Mar/Cedar Rapids Jefferson boys’ basketball game at Jefferson still has to be considered the biggest in the Metro so far this season.
The teams were ranked 2-3 in last week’s Class 4A poll, though Jefferson surely will drop from No. 3 this week after last Friday night’s loss at Washington. The J-Hawks are 14-2, with both losses to the Warriors.
Linn-Mar (16-1) has won 15 straight after an early loss to …

KALONA — No leading scorer or second-leading scorer returning. Not much height around, and arguably the top player is a freshman.
That’s a recipe for a 4-and-something season at most schools. But this is Iowa Mennonite, and they really know how to cook — err, play basketball — in Kalona.
“I am a little bit surprised by our season,” said senior forward Truman Shetler. “I thought maybe we’d have one or two more losses. But this doesn’t really surprise me.”
The school with no nickname goes into the final week of its regular …

CEDAR RAPIDS — There are few certainties in this world, but among those you can count on are death, taxes and Cedar Rapids Washington boys’ district swimming titles.
The Warriors roared to their 47th consecutive district crown Saturday, whipping second-place Dubuque Senior by 38 points at the Washington pool.
There were five other district meets Saturday. All district winners and the next 18 fastest times from across the state automatically qualify for this week’s state meet at the Marshalltown YMCA. Another entry could be added if a district winner’s time is the …

DYERSVILLE — The celebratory meals and the congratulatory pats on the back will have to wait, because the Denver-Tripoli wrestling team wasn’t wasting any time to get back to work.
The Titans had practice scheduled just hours after they powered their way to a team title in what was considered one of the tougher sectional fields.
Denver prevailed in fine fashion, advancing 10 to next week’s district meet and winning the Class 2A sectional wrestling tournament at Beckman High School. The Titans had eight champions and tallied 265½ points, 41 more than …
