By the late 1800s, Catherine the Great was dead, Germany and Russia had become enemies and German Russians were being drafted into the military to fight their German kinsman.

Explosive plays, which have been in mighty short supply for the Griggs/Midkota Titans this season, came in abundance Friday night, October 6, in Cooperstown. And each and every one of those scores helped the Titans record their first win of the season, 52-32, over the Enderlin Eagles in 9-man Region 1 action. "It was nice to see our offense get the ball moving," said Titan Head Coach Ryan Dockter. "Our defense played tough, putting up two scores themselves, and it was nice to have three seniors...
Style points don't count for much in the grand scheme of things, but the Carrington Cardinals might have been a little too close for comfort in relation to winless Park River Area to Coach Kyle Smith's liking. Considering the prize at stake, being ahead by a 14-8 score early in the fourth quarter could have been a recipe for an upset for the hometown Aggies. However, the Cards got an insurance touchdown late, and opted not to go for points in the final seconds deep in Aggie territory to secure...
The Cavalier Tornadoes scored 20 second half points and held Harvey-Wells County scoreless in the last 24 minutes to earn a 26-14 homecoming victory over the Hornets in Cavalier on Friday, October 6.

Sieg caught one ball for six yards, and rushed five times for 59 yards, including the 12-yard run for the open...
