I have lived in East Jackson for 45 years. Most days when I take my walk I stroll around or through May Park. Each time I silently thank
Wayne May for having the foresight to sell this precious piece of property to the town of Jackson. The 10 acres was zoned for duplexes and multifamily homes. But in 1990, Wayne and
Selma May sold the property to the town for $400,000. It was well worth $2 million back then. The contract read that the Mays could live on the property until their death.
Jackson Town Councilor
Mike Lance played a major role in securing the land for the public. He approached the Mays about a 35-foot easement through their property, and the Mays said no. The town then asked if the Mays would sell all of the property, and they said yes.

Bright lights. Big Headlines. Two number one ranked teams. The Worland Warriors were 7-0 and averaged nearly 81 points per game. The Rocky Mountain Grizzlies were 7-1 only giving up just under 39 points per game.
Taylor Winland is 6’5″, Dawson May is 6’2″, Branson Robison is 6’1″. Five other Grizzlies are 6 foot or taller. They walked into Warrior Gym looking big. A team with confidence.
The three’s rained for the Warriors in the first period. Worland hit from beyond the arch. Rudy Sanford had 2 three’s. Jorey Anderson hit one, in the first. Mack Page got one. The big scorer in the first period for the Warriors? Sophomore Court Gonzalez. He had eleven of his fourteen points in the first period.

There is no other way to put it. The Worland Warriors dominated over the weekend. Winning by an average of 39 and a half points. If you add the Thermopolis game the Warriors are winning by nearly 37 points a game.

Defensively Worland held the Trailblazers leading scorer to 9 points. “Play like bees on defense and robots on offense.” Says Coach Aaron Abel.

The questions of what the Warriors would look like were answered last night in Thermopolis. The Warriors would beat Hot Springs County by 31. 84-53. The stating five to face the Bobcats were: Rudy Sanford, Mack Page, Jorey Anderson, Brock Douzenis, and Court Gonzalez. Sanford had 17 points with 12 of those points off of five 3 point shots. Mack Page lead all scoring with 18 and Jorey Anderson added 11 of his own. While Court Gonzales put 7 on the scoreboard.
How do you replace a five man deep rotation? Develop a new five man deep rotation. The Warriors saw a new look with Carter Clark off the bench with 10 points. 9 of those points were from 3 timely shots beyond the arc. Taylor Pierce, Kade Webber, Wyatt Wyman, and Landen Gilmore were first in rotation. Marcus Wiley had 4 points off the bench.
