Behind a community-wide sendoff and a dominant tournament performance capped by a 12–1 championship victory over Lowry, the Lady Trojans captured their fifth Class 3A state softball title.

It’s beginning to look like this could be a very special winter for the Pahrump Valley High School wrestling team.
Pahrump Valley High School football coach Joe Clayton is adamant about giving offensive linemen credit. So he was absolutely delighted when senior Zach Trieb was named the Class 3A Southern Region Lineman of the Year.
Sophomore Dylan Wright and senior Jakob Landis each posted perfect days Saturday as the Pahrump Valley High School wrestling team split four matches and finished fifth in the Boulder City Duals.
It might have been opening night for Beatty High School’s basketball teams, but Alan Sandoval was in midseason form.

The Pahrump Valley High School basketball teams had a rough go on their first trip of the season to Las Vegas, with a late rally falling short for the girls in a 38-34 defeat and the boys never really being in the game in a 78-36 rout Tuesday night at Bonanza High School.
Millions of people head to Las Vegas each year, hoping to strike it rich. A group from Pahrump did just that earlier this month, bringing home a huge haul of gold, silver and bronze.
