DAVIS, CALIF., (AP) - The Montana Grizzlies didn't start off the right way again on the road. But, they found a way to win on the road nonetheless. Chad Chalich overcame a slow start to pass for 265 yards and three touchdowns, leading No. 12 Montana to a 27-13 win over UC Davis on Saturday in Big Sky Conference action. It was UM's first road win under head coach Bob Stitt. "We needed to be able to come here and play with some excitement and have some fun together on the road,"...
While Havre High sports took center stage this past weekend due to homecoming, the Glacier Nationals were also in action, doing battle once again with the Great Falls Americans Friday in the Havre Ice Dome. The Nationals, who were defeated by the Americans 12-1 back on Sept. 18 in the season-opener for both teams, were much more competitive Friday night and were within striking distance before four goals in the third period gave Great Falls a 5-1 win. Glacier, which plays in...
The Havre High golf teams did all they could do at the Class A state tournament this past weekend in Sidney. Unfortunately, golf is a difficult sport, and sometimes, no matter how hard you try, the ball just doesn’t do what you ask it to. And for much of the 2015 Class A state tournament, played Friday and Saturday at the Sidney Country Club, that’s the way it went for the Blue Ponies, especially the HHS boys, who were certainly one of the teams to beat going into the fin...
Perhaps no two volleyball teams in the Frontier Conference needed, and wanted, to win as badly as the two teams that faced off Friday night in Dillon. And fortunately for the Montana State University-Northern Skylights, they were the team that got that win. The Skylights had been so close to winning so many times at home the last two weeks, but in their first conference road match of the season, they finally found the success they had been so close to getting. On Friday...

The schedule has been an unusual one so far for the Montana State University-Northern volleyball team. First, the Skylights were on the road for four straight weeks. Then, they got to play their first four Frontier Conference matches at home. Now, the schedule takes another strange quirk as the Skylights play just one match this weekend, and when that match is over, they won't play again until Oct. 15. And tonight's road match, the first of conference play for Northern (0-4,...
It’s back to the road for the Montana State Bobcats and Montana Grizzlies. And both are facing tough, but winnable, games this weekend. The Bobcats (1-0, 2-1) are riding high after an impressive 45-28 win over then No. 20 Cal Poly last Saturday in Bozeman. Now, No. 11 MSU will travel to take on arch rival Northern Arizona (0-1, 2-2) Saturday afternoon in the Walkup Skydome. And, head coach Rob Ash’s squad will have to avoid an obvious trap game on the road, in a place the Cat...
There is nothing quite like homecoming weekend for any high school sports program. But when it comes to the Havre High cross country teams, it means even more because it serves as the Blue Ponies’ only home meet. The Havre Invitational, which will feature a number of teams from along the Hi-Line as well as Lewistown and Browning, will give both Pony teams a chance to run in front of their hometown fans for the first time this season. The meet, which will get underway S...
While many Havre High sports fans are looking forward to homecoming athletic events, the Blue Pony volleyball team got the sports weekend started early Thursday in Great Falls. Unfortunately for the Ponies, their week of matches did not begin the way they wanted as they were swept by the Great Falls High Bison by the scores of 25-21, 25-20 and 25-19 at Swarthout Fieldhouse. The loss drops Havre to 5-5 on the season, while the Bison improved their overall record to 4-11. Havre...
The season is young, but the Glacier Nationals junior hockey team will have a big test this weekend. Tonight, the Nationals play host to the Great Falls Americans inside the Havre Ice Dome, and the game will tell a lot about where the Nationals are at. So far, Glacier has struggled defensively in a 0-4 start to the season, and they'll be tested by a tough American's attack tonight. Glacier started the season by falling to both the Americans and Helena Bighorns two weeks ago....
With only five teams in the Central A conference and only four conference games, each one of them is important. That’s why tonight’s game against Livingston means so much for the Havre High football team — that, and it’s homecoming. The small conference schedule means the Blue Ponies (3-2, 1-0) have little room for error. So when they take the field tonight at Blue Pony Stadium at 7, they can’t afford to letdown, despite entering the game as heavy favorites. “We just need t...
Winning football games is often about making sacrifices. And when it comes to the Havre High football team, no one has made more sacrifices than Chris Gabrielsen. Gabrielsen, who is in the midst of his junior season for the Blue Ponies, is a two-way starter for HHS. Yet that isn’t what makes him unique, there are others on the team that play both ways and do so with little complaint. The thing that makes Gabrielsen different is the fact that due to team needs, he has started g...
Momentum is a huge thing in the sport of volleyball and right now the Havre High volleyball team has it. The key, of course, is keeping it. And that is exactly what the Blue Ponies will try to do this week, starting tonight with a difficult road trip to Great Falls, where they will take on Great Falls High at 7 p.m. Then, the Ponies will return home Saturday to welcome the Browning Indians into the HHS gymnasium for homecoming. That match will begin approximately 5 p.m....
For nine Havre Blue Ponies, 36 holes of golf is all that stands between them and the end of the 2015 season. It’s also all that stands between them and individual and team glory. On Friday and Saturday, the Havre High boys and girls golf teams will play at the Class A state meet, which will be held at the Sidney Country Club, a tree-lined, difficult 18-hole golf course set in the Yellowstone River Valley. And it’s there that the Havre High boys golf team will attempt to cap...
Every football team in the Frontier Conference gets a break this weekend. And no one could use a bye more than the Montana State University-Northern Lights. MSU-N is coming off its worst loss in recent program history - an 82-9 thrashing at the hands of defending NAIA national champion Southern Oregon. The loss was the fifth straight for the Lights, who will now use their second bye week of the season to regroup. And while the young Lights are struggling right now, pretty...
When it comes to where to play the Class A state golf tournament, the venue should be difficult. Not impossible, just a difficult test for the players and teams. And the venue for the 2015 Class A state tournament is a tough one. Friday and Saturday, the Havre Blue Ponies, and the rest of Class A will put their golf skills to the test, and the exam will be the Sidney Golf Club. Set in the Yellowstone River Valley, Sidney Golf Club is an 18-hole, semi-private course. It’s c...

The Montana State Bobcats and Montana Grizzlies were certainly riding high after each scored important home wins in what was the start of Big Sky Conference play last Saturday. Both teams were emotionally up, not only because they won homecoming games in front of huge, sold-out crowds, but because they both proved they could rebound from tough losses. However, if you were paying attention to either game, or both, and you are a fan either of team, you might want to take...
The Montana State University-Northern golf teams are now done for the fall. The short season ended Tuesday with the second day of the Carroll College Classic. The tournament, played at Green Meadow Country Club in Helena, featured a full field of Frontier Conference teams, as well as Miles Community College. And both the Lights and Skylights had solid showings. The MSU-N women finished in fifth place with a total of 798 over 36 holes. Lewis-Clark State captured first-place...
It seems like the high school football season just got started a few weeks ago and the truth is, it did. But, as quickly as the season has gone, it's still hard to believe that the season is more than halfway over. Yet, for some teams along the Hi-Line, things are just starting to get interesting. The Havre High football team, which is led by first-year head coach Mark Samson, is now getting into the heart of its conference schedule and they aren't the only team with big games...

Anybody who is familiar with the game of golf knows the value of a great golfing buddy. It always gives you somebody to play with and compete with. And within the town of Havre, you may not find two better golfing buddies then Jerod Boles and Jeff Miller. For four years now, Miller and Boles, who are both seniors at Havre High School, have starred for the Blue Ponies on the links. Each player has earned Central A All-Conference honors four times and each were All-State for...
The football season is only half over at Montana State University-Northern. And fall seemingly hasn’t even started yet, save the color of the trees. But make no mistake, winter, or at least Northern’s winter sports, are right around the corner. Both MSU-Northern basketball teams, and the Lights’ wrestling team have begun to prepare for the upcoming season — a season that will be here in no time. The MSU-Northern women, which went to the Elite 8 at the NAIA national tournam...
