Football

Bella McCullough & Aubrey Kennedy

On September 6, 2024 the Malad High School football team played against the Bulldogs in Ririe. They ended up losing 47-14 but played a great game. In the beginning they played a little rough and struggled to work as a team, but throughout the game they managed to play better together in the end. Brady Showell scored one touchdown and had a two-point conversion. Then just a few seconds later, Easton Green passed the ball to Dawsyn Peterson and he ran through the endzone and scored a touchdown. The next game, played by the C team, will be on September 12, 2024 at Ridge County. Then following that September 13, 2024 our JV and varsity teams will have a home game against
American Falls. 

Mayors Closet Donations

Kenadei Wise and Addison Williams

The Malad High School Donation Closet, put on by the Mayor’s Youth Council, has been in the making since 2023. In August of 2024, the location was changed to the back of the school in Billy Peabody’s office. Now that the location has been moved, there is much more space to store items that have been donated. The Donation Closet is always accepting donations from students and other members of the community. The Donation Closet was set up in order to help students who are struggling and provide for those who may need more than what they have access to at home.

Those who want to donate are encouraged to visit the Malad Crisis Center or talk to Mrs. Kent and Mrs. Jacobsen at the Malad High School. Some ideas of things to donate are jackets, shoes, winter clothing, and blankets. Malad High School would like to give thanks to Tara Lynn Snow from Hazel Blues for donating a large amount of clothing to the Donation Closet. Any students who need to visit are always welcome to. 

• They are always accepting and all students have access.

• The clothing store next to Sinclair, thanks for donating

The Game for Brielle Bird

Kendra Rupp and Tavanie Steed

Last week, our girls volleyball team played against the Wendell Trojans. The Malad girls had a quick defeat against Wendell. They played next to the student section that wore gold in honor of “awareness for children’s cancer”. “The student section was very hyped up and lots of people showed up for the games.” Katie Coatney, student body vice-president said. Brielle Bird, a young girl that has been battling cancer for the second time now, and her family were grateful for the support. “It’s so cool to see that people are aware of Brielle and see what she is going through. I know she looks up now to every student in that student section that night,” said Paityn Ward.   Brielle was there that night to support her cousin, Paityn. (Shown in picture, Brielle and Paityn.)  One thing that Malad High School wants to show the world is that no one fights alone. “It was so nice to see the student body come together to fight for this cause,” one of the volleyball players said. 

Good luck volleyball girls for your upcoming games. Malad shows full support!
