In case you haven't noticed, there is a storm brewing along the Hi-Line in Class C Six-Man football and it's happening in Box Elder, where the Bears have built a true state title contender. It has taken a lot for the Bears to get their program where it is today and a number of players and coaches deserve credit. One of the players who has been a key building block over the past four years is senior Bodis Duran. Duran, who is a multi-sport athlete, competing in both football an...
If you're a fan of local high school football, and a handful of high school teams on the Hi-Line, and you're planning on attending the annual Cat-Griz game Nov. 21 in Bozeman, you might want to think twice about making hotel reservations in Bozeman just yet. That's because that Saturday is also high school state championship day in Montana, and the Hi-Line could be very busy that day. This weekend marks the halfway point in the high school football season, and already, the...

For the first time in the program's young history, the Montana State University-Northern golf teams were the host of a Frontier Conference tournament. And while the Lights and Skylights didn't finish at the top of the team or individual standings, it was exciting none-the-less. Northern head coach Dave Boles and the MSU-N golf teams were the host of this week's MSU-Northern Tournament, which was played Monday and Tuesday at the Marias Valley Golf Club in Shelby. The two-day, 5...
The Box Elder Bears aren’t just winning football games this season, they are dominating them. And Saturday against North Star, the Bears did it again. In a highly anticipated matchup between the Bears and the Knights in Class C Six-Man football’s North Division, Box Elder quickly proved that the game was a mismatch, outscoring North Star 30-7 in the first quarter, on their way to a 60-19 victory. Brandon The Boy got things started for the Bears with a touchdown pass to Jake Jo...
One of the great traditions of the annual Festival Days Celebration is the 48-Hour Softball Tournament. And for those of you who may not be familiar with it, when it says 48 hours it's no joke - games go day and night, without stopping, making it one of the most unique softball tournaments around. Starting Friday night at 6 p.m., 19 teams took part in the slow-pitch competition and battled it out at the Sixth Avenue Memorial Field. When it was all said and done, and after...
The high school volleyball season is now in high gear. And local teams are battling it out for district supremacy right now. One of those teams that reigns supreme is the Chinook Sugarbeeters, and Thursday night, the Beeters once again showed their dominance. In a non-conference match against Fort Benton, Chinook swept the Longhorns by scores of 25-18, 25-20 and 25-19 in what was a very competitive match. In the win, Brooke Nicholson had five kills for the Beeters, while...
The Montana State University-Northern cross country teams made their debut as a sport two weeks ago in Helena. And while the Carroll Early Bird Meet was an eye-opening experience for the MSU-N runners, Northern's second race of the season was an even bigger challenge. Last Saturday, the Lights and Skylights competed at the Montana State Invitational, held at Bridger Creek Golf Course in Bozeman. There, the Lights and Skylights got a look at NCAA Division I competition, as the...
Allix Goldhahn, C/J-I Volleyball The Chester/J-I volleyball team scored two big wins against heated rivals this weekend. And junior Allix Goldhahn was a big reason why. Goldhahn, who can play multiple positions for the Hawks, had 11 kills and three blocks in a Friday night win over Dutton-Brady. But on Saturday, she was even better as she totaled 17 kills in C/J-I's four-set win at arch rival North Star. Goldhahn is a returning All-Conference performer for the Hawks, who have...
Great players find a way to come up big when it matters most. And even though a number of Havre football players made big plays in Friday night’s win over Sidney, Nate Rismon and Dane Warp were the most impactful. Coming into the Sidney game, the Blue Ponies were in desperate need of a win. Fresh off a blowout loss to Miles City, HHS needed a shot in the arm and thanks to a 26-21 win over an Eastern A team with playoff aspirations, it got it. There were a lot of key moments i...
Saturday was not an easy day for the Montana State University-Northern football team. Spirits may have started high, both on the field and in the stands at Blue Pony Stadium for Saturday's homecoming game between the Lights and the UM-Western Bulldogs, but because of how good the Bulldogs are, it didn't take long for spirits too be dampened a bit. However, no matter how tough it is on the football field, everyone in attendance Saturday should have gotten an emotional lift...
CHENEY, Wash. (AP) — Jordan West threw for 410 yards and six touchdowns and Jabari Wilson ran for 188 yards and two scores to lead Eastern Washington to a wild, 55-50 win over Montana State Saturday. West completed 21 of 24 passes — setting a school record of 313.5 for passing efficiency — with Cooper Kupp hauling in 12 for 201 yards and three touchdowns. Despite racking up 667 yards, the No. 14 Eagles (1-2) didn't secure the win until Nzuzi Webster intercepted Dakota Pruko...
There’s no denying that the Montana State University-Northern Lights are in a slump offensively. And for the second week in a row, the Lights’ offense was kept out of the endzone and out of the uprights. The Lights followed a shutout loss at Rocky Mountain College on Sept. 12 with an offensive shutout at the hands of the UM-Western Bulldogs Saturday at Blue Pony Stadium. Needless to say it, wasn’t the homecoming game the Lights were looking for. Northern gained just five first...
The Havre High cross country teams may not have placed highly at last Saturday's Mountain West Classic in Missoula, but that doesn't change the fact that they got better. After all, they faced the most difficult competition they will face all season and they will only be better in the long run because of it. The meet, which welcomes schools from across the Northwest, is arguably the most prestigious meet in the state of Montana and it did not disappoint Saturday at its usual...
With two tough tournaments, on two tough golf courses, the regular season came to an end for the Havre High golf teams this past week. The Blue Ponies were in Billings on Thursday for the Billings Central Invitational, which was played at Eaglerock Golf Course, then HHS was in Laurel Friday for the Laurel Invite at the prestigious Laurel Country Club. And in both tournaments, the Havre High boys put up strong showings. In Billings, Havre placed third with a team score of 339....
The Havre High volleyball team has already proven to be vastly improved from a season ago. And Saturday in Lewistown, against a pair of non-conference foes, the Blue Ponies proved it once again. Traveling to Lewistown to face a pair of teams that they could meet down the road in the Eastern A Divisional tournament, the Ponies earned a split, falling to Hardin in four sets by the scores of 25-20, 24-26, 25-20 and 25-21, but defeating Laurel in a five-game thriller by the...
The Montana State University-Northern Lights were fired up for their homecoming game with the UM-Western Bulldogs. But, for four quarters, it was Western which seemed right at home at Blue Pony Stadium. The No. 19 Bulldogs capitalized on four MSU-N turnovers, and the stingy UM-W defense forced Northern’s offense to be shut out for the second straight week as Western won 44-2 on Northern’s homecoming Saturday afternoon. The loss dropped the Lights to 0-3 in the Frontier Con...
This past weekend was a busy one as far as sports were concerned in Havre, and one of the events that capped off another exciting Festival Days weekend, was the Glacier Nationals home-opener Saturday night inside the Havre Ice Dome. Unfortunately for the Nationals and their fans, the home debut did not go as well as they hoped as the Helena Bighorns, one of the top teams in the Frontier Division of the North American Tier 3 Hockey League, defeated Glacier 7-1. In front of a...
On an emotional night inside the Armory Gymnasium, on homecoming, in more ways than one, the Montana State University-Northern Skylights played some inspired volleyball. Unfortunately, they were playing that volleyball against the No. 6 team in the NAIA, and against the two-time defending Frontier Conference champions. Saturday night at the Armory wasn’t just a big homecoming match against Rocky Mountain College, but it was also the emotional and inspiring return of S...
For the Havre High football team, the Sidney game was not just another non-conference affair — it was a must-win game — not for playoff position — but for momentum and confidence. And after knocking off the Eagles, the Blue Ponies should have plenty of both. On a memorable night, in front of a packed house at Blue Pony Stadium Friday night, the Ponies started off Festival Days with a bang, as they beat the favored Eagles 26-21 in dramatic fashion. The win came on the heels of...

It's homecoming weekend at Montana State University-Northern. But, it is also a true homecoming for the Montana State University-Northern volleyball team, which spent the first four weeks of the new season on the road. And, inside the Armory Gymnasium Thursday night, the atmosphere was festive and raucous for the Skylights' home opener. However, the Lewis-Clark State Warriors decided to spoil the party. In the first Frontier Conference match of 2015, the Warriors reeled off...
When the Havre High football team takes the field tonight against the Sidney Eagles, it will not only be looking to win a football game — it will also be looking to win back some respect. That's because the 2015 season has started unexpectedly rough for the Blue Ponies. First, HHS was soundly defeated at home by Whitefish, then after squeaking out a home win against Hardin, the Ponies were again dominated last week in Miles City, losing 54-28. So now, as the Sidney Eagles, a...
Zach McKinley never thought about setting records, not in high school or college. In fact, there was a time when all McKinley wanted to do was be handed the football as a starting running back. Now however, three games into his junior season at Montana State University-Northern, McKinley doesn't have to worry about getting the ball. He totes it plenty as MSU-N's starting tailback for the third straight season. And while records still aren't foremost on his mind, or his goal...
