SUMMARY: A truck became stuck under a bridge on I-20 westbound near Ellis Avenue around 2 PM, blocking the left lane for about two hours. MDOT crews have freed the trailer and are now inspecting the bridge for damage. The 18-wheeler was carrying an oversized load, causing it to hit the bridge at an angle, almost in an L shape. Traffic is slowly resuming, but MDOT estimates clearance within the next hour. Drivers are advised to seek alternative routes to avoid delays in the area.

SUMMARY: As playoffs approach, teams in Class 1A to 4A are vying for final spots. This week‘s spotlight is on Hatley High School, where the Hatley Tigers host the Hamilton Tigers, both with 5-4 overall records and 1-1 in division play. Hamilton started strong at 4-1 but lost three straight before winning last week. Hatley faced a rocky season, following a similar pattern of wins and losses. Both teams are part of a four-way tie in their division, with chances to secure playoff positions. A full breakdown of playoff possibilities will be presented later.
