Tyler Stephenson's move from offensive line to H-back bolstered Cheyenne East

CHEYENNE — Tyler Stephenson grew up with the football in his hands offensively from the time he started playing flag football. He was a “skill-position player” when he graduated into tackle football in elementary school. Same goes for Stephenson’s two years at Carey Junior High. So, you can imagine his surprise when he was moved to the offensive line during his freshman year at Cheyenne East. Stephenson’s build and strength made him an ideal candidate to block for his teammates. He was disappointed, but undeterred. Playing offensive line beat standing on the sideline during games. “We needed O-linemen, so I got asked to move,” Stephenson said. “They thought I had the structure and the ability to do it, so I did it. It’s not as fun as playing a skill position, but it was what the team needed. “There were things I liked about playing on the O-line, but I like being a lot more involved in the offense and catching passes and carrying the ball. There’s still a lot of blocking involved in playing H-back, so having that experience as a lineman helps a lot.” Stephenson had come to terms with his life as a lineman during his first

Pine Bluffs, Sundance, set for rematch in 9-man title game

CHEYENNE — Oct. 9 saw what was, arguably, the best Class 1A nine-man game of the regular season. Trailing by three scores in the third quarter, Pine Bluffs came roaring back to take a late lead, but left Sundance time for one last drive. The Bulldogs brought that all the way down to the goal line, where they faced a fourth-and-goal with eight seconds left. The Hornets forced a fumble on the ensuing play, and were able to run out the clock to hold on for a 27-21 win. Now, nearly five weeks to the date since that game, those teams square off again at 1 p.m. Saturday at War Memorial Stadium. Only this time, much more than just seeding will be on the line. Instead, it will be for the nine-man state title. The Hornets are looking to win their third consecutive crown and fourth in the last five years. “We’re super proud,” Pine Bluffs coach Will Gray said. “When you look back at week one and you get the brakes beat off you, the season can go one of two ways. The kids can either come in Monday hungry or they can pout about it, and they didn’t

WHSAA wrestles with South dilemma

This past week, Cheyenne South High School announced that their football team would not be fielding a varsity team in 2027 and instead opt for a sub-varsity schedule in an effort to build the program. It’s been a huge struggle for the Bison who are currently riding a 65-game losing streak and have only won nine games in the past 16 seasons. It also brings up the question of what is next for Wyoming in terms of football classification and also what might happen with those open games for the 4A football schools next season. It is no secret that the Braves would like to schedule teams such as Sheridan and Natrona County should the opportunity arise, but according to Trevor Wilson, Commissioner with the Wyoming High School Activities Association (WHSAA), that will not be taking place next season.

Cheyenne City Council postpones vote on construction site rules amid data center noise-related concerns

CHEYENNE — Following extensive discussion over industrial noise standards and their potential impacts on data centers, construction businesses and other industrial operations, members of the Cheyenne City Council voted to postpone consideration of an amendment to the Unified Development Code regarding construction site rules. The ordinance, which was discussed at a council meeting Monday, would create two new sections of the UDC and amend three existing ones. The changes are intended to clarify requirements around establishing uses, including expectations for construction sites, while also addressing concerns about water use, lighting, noise and other impacts associated with large industrial developments. Much of the debate centered on proposed noise limits, which the document states should be 45 decibels in residential areas and 65 decibels everywhere else. Paul Steed, project manager for Mechanical Systems Inc., warned council members that lower noise thresholds could have unintended consequences for local businesses and construction projects. He said reducing allowable noise levels could require expensive mitigation measures, particularly near residential areas. Representatives from the data center industry also supported reasonable noise protections, but questioned whether the proposed standards were appropriate. Chris Tetlow, metro director for Microsoft in Cheyenne, urged council members to retain limits that currently apply
