What a Career for Kelsey. . .
While on the subject of swimming, how about Cowgirl senior Kelsey Conci! She capped off a tremendous career at Wyoming by earning her second-straight Honorable Mention All-America honor last week at the NCAA Women's Swimming and Diving Championships. She swam in three events, the 50 and 100 free and the 100 backstroke. In the backstroke, she earned first in the consolation final with a time of 52.12, the fastest in the Mountain West, and in Wyoming school history. She is the first-ever Cowgirl to earn consecutive Honorable Mention All-American honors.

Cowboy Joe Club News. . .
Now that the basketball season has been completed, the Club would like to thank all of those individuals and companies who donated to the pre-game events, as well as everyone who attended. The pre-game functions during the men's and women's basketball seasons are extremely popular.
The next two fund drives for the Club will come in mid-April at Platte and Sweetwater counties. We'll keep you posted on those two events.

The Cowboys travel to Goodyear, AZ to compete in the University of Denver Desert Shootout, Thursday through Saturday. The women compete at Tucson, in the Mountain View Collegiate Friday and Saturday.
The tennis team travels to San Diego this week for a couple of meets. On Saturday the Cowgirls take on UNLV, then on Sunday battle San Diego State. Both matches begin at 11 a.m. MT.
How about Joe LeBlanc? With another excellent performance, the Cowboy senior earned his fourth All-American honor at this year's NCAA Championships. The man who has won more matches than any wrestler in Cowboy history, also became UW's only four-time All-American. Also congrats to Alfonso Hernandez, the Pokes' redshirt junior, who earned All-American honors as well.
Congratulations to Cowboy hoopster Leonard Washington who was named to the All-Disctrict 17 Second team by the National Association of Basketball Coaches.
