It turned out to be one of the most complete seasons in school history for the Redwood Valley baseball team during the 2022 campaign. The Cardinals went 15-5 during the regular season (most wins ever for a Cardinal team during the regular season) and tied the 1997 squad for total victories with 17 as they finished 17-7 overall and 8-4 in Big South Conference play (good for second).
To the Editor: Setting aside the debate on the legitimacy of the 2020 election, the result is the reality we are now living in.

June is National Pride Month and is celebrated to honor the 1969 Stonewall Uprising, formerly known as the Stonewall Riots, in Manhattan, New York. Throughout the 1960s, the police raided establishments rumored to serve members of the LGBTQ+ community, and then on June 28, 1969 police raided the Stonewall Inn, a known “private bottle bar” that LGBTQ+ individuals frequented. Within minutes bar patrons and neighborhood residents began the uprising in response to the police brutality against those that were being arrested. Hundreds of people were involved in the uprising and ensued for the next five days, six days total. New York’s Pride march this year will commemorate the 53rd anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising.
