Northstars, Comets set to battle in home opener Sunday

The Havre Comets ended their season last year falling just short of a trip to the state tournament. The team who ended their hopes of going was their rival, the Havre Northstars.

This year the Northstars team looks very similar to last year's Comets team with the exception of four players. Doug Ireland, Dusty Heath, Danny Wirtzberger and Eric Lipp all return for coach Mickey Williams with the addition of 14 former Comets players.

"It was really hard for me to give those kids up," Comets coach Bob Evans said.

Now, those talented players Evans gave up will be facing their former coach on Sunday....
