Unable to continue their postseason success, Boulder City High School girls soccer bowed out in the second round of the postseason on Oct. 31 with a 2-1 defeat to Equipo Academy.
Five Eagles will represent Boulder City High School in the cross country state championships this weekend, after strong performances at regionals.
Opening round of the postseason was the perfect time for Boulder City High School to snap a two-game skid, defeating Democracy Prep 14-8 on Oct. 30.
The word phenom is defined as a person who is outstandingly talented or admired, especially an up-and-comer.
Boulder City High School sports teams took home a number of awards for succesful baseball, softball, and swimming seasons.
Boulder City swim coach Sara Carroll has carved out a legacy throughout her 23-year tenure with the program, creating a juggernaut within the Division I-A ranks. The Eagles have dominated the early part of the decade, with no signs of letting up. This past week at the Division I-A state swim meet at UNLV was evidence of that.
The Division I-A high school flag football All-Star game took place on Tuesday at Clark high school with several key Lady Eagles playing a large role in the Sunrise’s 18-12 victory over the Sunset.
Despite their best efforts the Lady Eagles softball team fell short of a state championship, losing 6-5 to Spring Valley in extra innings.
How do you top a perfect game? Hit a home run to seal a state championship.
It’s looking like another banner will be hung in the gymnasium for Boulder City High’s boys and girls swim programs this season following first-place team finishes this past week at the Division I-A Southern region meet at UNLV.
Coming into the season, senior Boulder City two-way softball star Charlie Masterson had hoped for a state tournament appearance to close out her storied prep career with the Lady Eagles. Today, the four-year starter will get her wish when the Lady Eagles take on Northern Nevada opponent Fernley.
Junior Boulder City High starting pitcher Jake Hubel is rarely seen as the ace of the Eagles’ deep pitching staff. With that honor going toward heralded seniors Peyton Koopman and Steve Wagner this season, Hubel wasn’t often called upon in do-or-die moments by head coach Bobby Reese to propel the Eagles to a victory. When his moment came, however, the emerging junior was ready.

Anyone who has been around the Boulder City political world for any stretch of time already knows that Mayor Joe Hardy is a pretty humble guy and not one to toot his own horn.
When Utilities Director Joe Stubitz briefed the city council on the status of Boulder City’s Dark Sky initiative, which involves replacing hundreds of street light fixtures with modern versions that aim light onto the ground and not into the sky, it was notable for reasons beyond spending and how soon the program would be finished.
Boulder City has a great vision statement. It’s located on the front page of our website: “The City of Boulder City is committed to preserving its status as a small town, with a small-town charm, historical heritage and unique identity, while proactively addressing our needs and enhancing our quality of life.”
