Few things in nature are as uncommon as a double banana.  The cause is unclear but someplace along the flower and subsequent fruit development, one became two.  The two were only the fleshy, edible inner parts of this seedless fruit.
To allow for the extra inner makings, the accommodating rind grew larger, too, but otherwise everything seemed normal, at least as normal as a seedless fruit can be.

On August 30, the Sugar River Boys Soccer team played Delavan-Darien at the DDHS Soccer Complex, losing 11-1.
By the end of the first half, Delavan-Darien was up by just 3 points. However, Delavan-Darien came out in the second half and scored eight goals.
Jaden Kreklow scored the lone goal for Sugar River.

The Columbus Cardinals beat the Belleville Wildcats in last Friday’s football game, by a final score of 56-18.
Columbus came out on the field looking strong, and by the end of the first quarter were up 35-0. Belleville’s Cade Martin scored the first touchdown for the Wildcats in the second quarter, but the two point conversion was unsuccessful. The halftime score was 56-6.
Martin scored again in the third quarter, but the extra point was unsuccessful.

All boys and girls in 1st through 8th grade interested in playing basketball this season, please attend! Parents – please plan to sign your son or daughter up if interested in participating in Belleville’s youth program this season.
