T-Birds "making progress,' hope to extend win streak

With their recent schedule lacking in quality opponents, the North Callaway Thunderbirds have concentrated their focus on testing themselves.

North Callaway's last three foes - including tonight's opponent, Clopton/Elsberry (2-5) - are a combined 6-15. The Thunderbirds (3-4) will try to climb back to the .500 mark when they carry a two-game winning streak into tonight's Eastern Missouri Conference home matchup against the Hawks. Kickoff is at 7.
