The Pierre Lady Governor soccer team won their consolation round match this morning at the State Class AA Girls Soccer tournament by defeating Yankton 4-1. The win moves the Lady Govs into the consolation championship game tomorrow morning at 11:30 am against the winner of the Sioux Falls O'Gorman and Rapid City Central match.

Junior running back Austin Wagner of the Pierre Governor football team will not start and is not expected to play tonight when the Governors face the Rapid City Stevens Raiders. Wagner was injured last week being tackled out of bounds during the third quarter of the Pierre and Sioux Falls Washington game. Alex Gray will start in Wagner's place at Free Safety on defense and Kyle Jacobsen will start in Wagner's wingback spot on offense.
