Hundreds of frustrated Jordan Elementary School parents left a meeting late Wednesday night still not knowing if their school will close this spring.

Mountain Pointe beat Glendale Mountain Ridge, 6-2, in a Division I, Section III baseball game on Wednesday.

Bre Macha threw 13 strikeouts in a complete game as Red Mountain beat Mountain View, 4-1, on Tuesday afternoon.

Jordan Beck guessed wrong and still came out a winner.

When Glen Beck predicted the rise of a modern Euro-Middle Eastern Caliphate, then the next day went off the air, did Fox Cable News realize Beck jumped overboard? But in reacting to this week's events, more than Beck jumped overboard. That same day Elliot Spitzer cornered an American Imam questioning the long-term objectives of the Muslim Brotherhood, implying that some anti-Israeli plot was afoot. Even Chris Matthews went a bit too far by asserting to Queen Noor that modern Muslim states were anti-democratic, challenging her statement that the Quran was about individual freedoms. Queen Noor is a native-born Washington, D.C. American and life-long Muslim, worshiping at a Mosque near Ground Zero in Manhattan where she attended college.

In a battle between two of the best softball teams in the state, Courtney Sherwin tallied four RBI on three hits, while pitcher Breanna Macha went seven strong innings to lead No. 1 Red Mountain to a 7-4 victory over No. 2 Xavier on Thursday at Rose Mofford Softball Complex.

Marian Ruf threw a no-hitter with 10 strikeouts as visiting Red Mountain dismantled Phoenix North, 26-0, on Thursday.

It’s a humorous and self-depreciating nickname: “The Red Mountain Way.”

In a battle of top Division I teams, Red Mountain beat host-Gilbert, 12-5, in a Division I Section II game on Tuesday.

Never a doubt.

A quick breakdown of Monday night's Division I softball state championship matchup between No. 14 Chaparral and No. 6 Red Mountain:

Sunday was not a day of rest for Bre Macha.

This was two games of frustration busted out, in a big way.

Just Tibbitt knocked in the game-winning run as Mountain Pointe defeated visiting Highland 12-11 in eight innings in a 5A non-region baseball game Thursday.

If anybody was figuring that the Red Mountain softball run would end after three years, think again.

John Mayer, we hardly knew ye.

With a deep inhale and wide smile, Jordan Beck let out the worst-kept secret in Arizona high school softball, and came as close as anyone wearing black and red to acknowledging the history that’s been made on the east end of Brown Road.
