It can be downright difficult to make a name for yourself in the ultra-competitive Region 3, but the M-P-B Thunder certainly tried. Coming into play for the penultimate tournament before the State B event in Bismarck, a grand total of six different teams had at least 22 victories before they stepped on the court at Napoleon High School last Monday. The Thunder were matched up with District 5 runner-up Oakes in the nightcap November 7, and every last ounce of fight that M-P-B squeezed out...

The time to report a possible poaching violation is not the next time you see a game warden. Complaining about a situation you witnessed during deer or any other hunting season at the cafe, gas station, watering hole or at the high school game doesn't help. The best advice I can give is if you see a possible game and fish violation, report it via the Report All Poachers hotline or local law enforcement. There's no shortage of situations, scenarios and stories. The bottom line is if you see...
