And now, our National Anthem

There was an awfully sweet moment in west-central Minnesota Thursday night before the Atwater-Cosmos-Grove City Falcons vs. the Kerkhoven-Murdock-Sunburg Saints girls’ basketball game, a combination of sportsmanship and patriotism.

Prior to their last game of the regular season in Grove City, players from both teams got together and sang the National Anthem.
