Orion Ostheimer of Buffalo HS Named WY Gatorade Boys Soccer Player Of The Year: A Buffalo High School soccer goalie not only saved a state championship for his team, he saved one of the state’s top honors for himself.

Last week, Orion Ostheimer was named the 2025 Wyoming Boys Soccer Gatorade Player of the Year.

During the regular season of 3A Soccer, if teams are tied, then the game is decided by a shootout.

In the state championship game last month, neither Buffalo nor Cody scored in regulation or in overtime, thus the championship had to be decided in shootout style.

Ostheimer and the Bison had zero shootout experience this season outside of practice.

The junior talks about how the championship shootout played out from his perspective.

A big reason why Buffalo did not have any shootouts before the championship game, was because of their 12 wins this season, 10 of them were by shutout.

Sheridan Troopers Legion Baseball: The Sheridan Troopers are hitting the road this morning for their longest trip of the year to the Omaha, Nebraska area.

The team will play 6 games over the course of the next 4 days against teams from Minnesota, Nebraska as well as North and South Dakota, plus depending on the schedule, they’ll try to watch a game from the College World Series.

Senior Avon Barney says these next 6 games will be some of the toughest out-of-state competition that Sheridan will play this season.

Will Greer has made this trip before and says it’s not all business, but when the time comes, the team needs to be able to throw the switch when it matters.

Sheridan goes up against Wayzata, Minnesota tomorrow at 12-noon, followed by a 2:30pm game against North Platte, Nebraska.

Colorado Rockies Baseball: The Colorado Rockies won the first game of a 4-game series yesterday at Washington 6-4, thanks to a 3-run 9th inning.

The Rocks and Nationals will play each other again today starting at 4:45pm.
