This week's SJO sports calendar

SJO's Emmitt Holt is stone-cold after his second period pin over Oakwood's Steven Uden in their 106-pound match on December 5. Holt and the Spartans have a jammed-pack week of wrestling, starting with a home meet with South Vermilion High School from Indiana Tuesday at 6pm, followed by tri-meet at Centennial on Wednesday. Friday and Saturday, the St. Joseph-Ogden wrestling team will head to Tolono for the Illini Prairie Conference Meet.

Tanner Jacob goes up for a shot around Pinckneyville's Ty Laur and Riley Bauersachs in the second half of their Christie Clinic Shootout game on Saturday. Jacob led SJO's scoring effort with 20 points, three assists, and one steal. His output was not enough to help St. Joseph-Ogden past the Panthers, who won the contest 75-57. The Spartans take to the floor again tomorrow night at Teutopolis and are at home Friday to host the Pontiac Indians for an Illini Prairie Conference game.
