Almost a decade-and-a-half of basketball has elapsed since Carrington had any Monday night district tournament plans that didn’t involve the 7:30 p.m. prime time slot. But there was one more streak on the line for the Cardinals in the District 5 Tournament final night Monday, February 14, and that was extending their regional appearance count to 20 consecutive years. Mission accomplished on that front. CHS left no doubt of their strength and resolve, hitting on all cylinders in a 68-22 win o...
Seeding and records can go out the window when the postseason light switch flips on for the La-Moure/Litchville-Marion Loboes. The pack came back with a vengeance from their fourth seed slot, showing that there is quite a gulf between the top and bottom halves of District 5 in competition level. A 59-15 runaway victory for the eventual district champion Loboes over the fifth-seeded G-M Titans at the Jamestown Civic Center Friday, February 11, put the rest of the field on notice. Just getting...

The M-P-B Thunder girls left the court at the District 6 Tournament in Ashley in the same position from which they started, as the third seed from the league. Last Monday, the Thunder put together a good effort for three quarters to outlast South Border, 54-47, in the Region 3 qualifying round. Both teams had their perimeter games working, as the Thunder and Mustangs connected on seven three-pointers for each side. In particular, M-P-B’s Allison Thomas was feeling it. After a scoreless s...
Whatever high-octane fuel Lucas Hendrickson has in his tank, the Carrington Cardinals have used to go for a fun ride through the latter third of their District 5 schedule. The Cards rode nights of 24 and 27 points each from their senior leader to take two crucial games, 50-49 against Oakes in the East Gym on Tuesday, February 8, and a mild 59-48 upset over E-K-M in Edgeley two nights after that. That series of contests has vaulted CHS (8-8, 3-3 District 5) up into the third seed for the...
