August 21st, 2014

The McGregor Mercuries are looking to have another successful fall in football and volleyball.

This year in football, the Mercuries will have just 3 seniors, 5 juniors, and a large group of sophomores. They will rely on the 8 upperclassmen to lead the way for the youthful Mercuries. Coming off a 5-5 record, the McGregor Mercuries hope to improve this season. The Mercs open their season up on on August 29th when they travel to play Nevis. They host their first home game on September 5th against Northland.

The volleyball team is coming off a season where they were the Section 7A runners-up with a 20-8 record. Graduating some key players off of that team, the Mercuries will have to depend on their returning varsity players. The Mercuries will open up play on August 26th when they take on Floodwood at home.
