The Pahrump Valley Lady Trojans wasted no time asserting dominance, run-ruling The Meadows 15-0 in just three innings behind a no-hit performance from junior Evalenne Armendariz.

A routine school day turned into a once-in-a-lifetime experience for Pahrump Valley High School football players, who not only met the Las Vegas Raiders’ No. 1 draft pick but also saw their program receive a surprise $20,000 equipment donation during the team’s ‘Festival of Football’ draft event in Henderson.

Many, many years ago and many, many miles from Pahrump, the editor-in-chief of a daily college newspaper decided she wanted to decorate the office for the holidays.

The second annual Christmas Open horseshoes tournament saw Pahrump residents win all of the divisions Saturday at the Petrack Park pits.
