The Eagle Scout Court of Honor for Bryson Clark Porter, Subiaco Class of 2018, was held on Sunday, January 6, at Lake Fort Smith State Park. Bryson's Eagle Service Project was the installation of a water bottle filler for the St. John's Sack Lunch program in downtown Fort Smith. This project's most important goal was the establishment of access to clean drinking water 24 hours a day, 365 days a year but also eliminates thousands of plastic water bottles and freed up resources expended in the donation of bottled water for the program. Bryson earned 53 merit badges during his tenure as a Scout. During the ceremony, Bryson also received a recognition from the City of Fort Smith from Honorable George McGill, Mayor. Dc. Roy Goetz gave the blessing of the meal prior to the ceremony.

After opening the season at Southside with a benefit game win, the Trojans opened their home season with a pair of big wins over County Line and Van Buren. The two games were a good start for the Trojans who then would find themselves on a ten-day break for Thanksgiving. On Tuesday, the Indians from County Line with their rich tradition came to Oskar Rust for a renewal of the once intense rivalry. Basketball junkies will still talk about the Jack Schulte led Trojans taking on the Jerry Vest led Indians. Neither team has imposing big men like those two stars. The first period was slow and methodical play with the Trojans trying to adapt to the Indians zone defense. The second period saw the Trojans find themselves on the defensive end, creating several fast break points. Despite shooting a dismal 2 for 14 from the three-point line, Subiaco did go into the half with a 30-19 lead. The third period saw the Trojans continue their strong play and build a 22 point lead at 52-30. In the early going the lead would increase to 24. The Indians never quit as they threw in 23 points in the final period to cut the lead 63-53 for the final. James Taylor, Tom Myers, Elvis Janga and Devon Forest 51 points as the Trojans opened the season with a victory. On Thursday, the Trojans hosted a strong Van Buren team led by one of the state's top-ranked Sophomores. A big strong point guard showed why he is ranked so high with a combination of passing, shooting ability that was very impressive. The Trojans swapped early leads with the Pointers but a small flurry at the end of the period saw the Trojans with a 17-10 lead after one. The second period saw the pace slow some as the Trojans missed several opportunities to extend the lead and had to settle on a 28-22 lead at intermission. It looked as if the Trojans would pull away in the second half as they built a 13 point lead. Between Subiaco making some poor decisions on offense and not getting some of the loose balls and rebounds they had been getting for much of the game, the Trojans saw the lead dwindle to one. Fortunately, the Trojans hit free throws and made plays down the stretch to pull out the 60-57 hard fought win. On Tuesday, Nov 27th, Subiaco will host Two Rivers for a Junior High night with games starting at 5. The Trojans will then play in the Van Buren tournament and will open play on Thursday, the 29th against Mountain Home with the tip being at 4.
