By the time Carlie Wagner played in the all-star girls’ basketball game at Carleton College in Northfield Saturday, she was tired.
By the end, she was joyous — along with a good portion of Panther Nation.
Wagner, an NRHEG High School senior and one of the nation’s top basketball recruits, captured perhaps the most noteworthy honor given to a high school player as she was announced Minnesota’s Miss Basketball for 2014.
It followed, coincidentally, a game in which Wagner’s team lost 102-85 while she scored 30 points.
But that wasn’t the moment everyone was waiting for.

New Richland City Council
By JESSICA LUTGENS
Staff Writer
The New Richland City Council held its second meeting of April on Monday, the 28th. All members were present except Amy Ihrke. The agenda and consent agenda were both approved, with one addition for a request added.
A guest was in attendance to request the purchase and installation of new “Panther Nation” signs to take the place of the current “Welcome to New Richland” signs outside of town. There will be two signs per entrance. The signs will also recognize the Panther girls’ basketball state championships for 2013 and 2014, and the state champion Panther cheerleading squad. The project will be completed by students at NRHEG High School. The council approved the request.
