Hi-Line Athletes of the Week

Frank Runs Above, HLP Boys Basketball

It was a magical Saturday night for all of the HLP Thunderbirds as they captured the Northern C title. But it was a huge two days for senior Frank Runs Above. In the championship game, Runs Above notched a key 16 points, helping HLP win their first title in 10 years. But one night earlier, he scored 29 points as the T-Birds held off 9C rival Chinook in the Northern C semifinals in Great Falls. Runs Above was also a football standout for HLP this past fall.

Leah Gannon, Fort Benton Girls Basketball

The Fort Benton Longhorns didn't quite make it to the Class C state tournament, but they sure came close. The Longhorns won three straight games to finish third in the Northern C tournament this past weekend in Great Falls, and Leah Gannon came up clutch with 17 points in Fort Benton's consolation win over WGR Friday night. Gannon also helped the Longhorns to their biggest win of the season, a Friday morning upset of 9C rival and champion Box Elder. In that game, she scored five points, but dished out six assists as well.
