With a field that was finally dry enough for baseball, the Carrington Cardinals hosted their first home game of the season on Thursday, May 4. Visitors were the Black Sox of Sheyenne-New Rockford, who were looking to find their feet after a rough 1-6 start to their season. Unfortunately for them, however, the Cards weren't about to slow down for their neighbors to the north. Carrington had lost only one game all season entering Thursday's matchup, and they weren't about to lose a second in...
In his junior season as the Carrington staff ace, Grady Shipman has seemed to have two types of pitching outings. Effective wildness, or dialed-in confidence. Shipman had the latter going on in LaMoure Monday afternoon, May 8, striking out 13 L-L-M Loboes hitters and needing just one run to register a 1-0 thriller against one of the region's traditionally-salty lineups. The only hit registered against the hard-throwing righty was in the third inning, when the Loboes' Tate Mart reached on a...
Nothing is a sure thing in high school baseball. The May-Port-CG Patriots, after overcoming separate five-run and seven-run deficits, proved that to be the case in a wild one at Mayville Friday afternoon, May 5. Staring at a 12-5 hole entering the bottom of the sixth inning, the Pats dug deep, scored the equalizer with a lucky-seven spot, and raced home for a walk-off win and Gatorade bath over Carrington, 13-12. Marshall Judisch's game-winning single brought home Lucas Fugleberg with the...

In 1912, on April 13, passengers aboard the doomed ship Titanic were unaware of what fate waited for them. One day more, and the ship would sink, taking with it approximately 1,500 lives. The disaster impacted people the world over. Even North Dakota, far removed from the perils of the ocean, was deeply affected. E.W. Chaffee, a businessman and farmer of Aneta, was returning from a European vacation with his wife, Carrie, onboard the Titanic. Although his wife survived, he did not, and his body...
The second week in May is the anniversary of the disaster known as Zip to Zap. Planned as an innocent spring fling, kids began descending on Zap Friday afternoon, and by sundown the town of about 300 was swarming with some 2,000 drunk students. When the town's café and two bars closed for the night, a mob mentality took over. The National Guard was called in, and at sunrise on Saturday, troops prodded party-goers out of town with fixed bayonets. Many hung-over students headed for home, but...
Carl Ben Eielson’s history-making 1928 flight over the North Pole in his orange Lockheed Vega was reported on April 21 in North Dakota papers, but another colorful flight made smaller, more hysterical than historical headlines in the state. A broken wheel on a refrigerator car 18 miles west of Jamestown caused the derailment of 15 railroad cars.
