    Erik Gjovik|Feb 7, 2022

    The current makeup of the LaMoure/Litchville-Marion boys’ basketball roster has seen success no matter what sport they’re currently playing. State champions in nine-man football this past fall, along with winning Class B, American Legion and Babe Ruth Baseball crowns, the Loboes are quite the cohesive stable of athletes. One half of basketball was all it took for L-L-M to assert themselves as the ‘alpha wolf’, and took a 61-42 win over Carrington January 28 in the East Gym. Like it has gone in...
