A handful of Blue Ponies competed in Saturday's joint Bohn Moerer Meet at the Swarthout Pool in Great Falls, but many of Havre's top swimmers didn't compete. The meet was originally Helena's Invitational, but because of the closure of the pool at Carroll College last year, Helena doesn't have a pool to host a competitive swim meet anymore, so both Great Falls and...
The Havre High girls basketball team had hopes of rebounding from a loss to Great Falls High, with a victory over CMR. Yet, despite a commendable performance, the Blue Ponies came up short. From start to finish, the game was really all about defense. Both teams shot poorly from the field and particularly poor from the perimeter. But in the end, the Rustlers did just enough offensively to come away with a 41-37 victory over Havre Saturday inside the CMR Fieldhouse in Great...

The Havre High boys basketball team had its heart broken last Thursday against Great Falls High. But, after missing out on a chance to win back the Ole Goat, the Blue Ponies earned some redemption Saturday night with a memorable come-from-behind win over CMR.

Yet, the Ponies, who trailed by as much as 17 in the second half, found their resolve and thanks to a...
