Girls’ Basketball Friday, January 13 M-P-B 44, Napoleon/G-S 41 M-P-B had to overcome a double-digit deficit to do so, but they fought and clawed for an emotional three-point win in their debut in District 6 play over the N-G-S Imperials in Medina to snap a six-game slide. The Thunder’s perform-ance at the free-throw line in the second half helped them towards the victory, as they went 12-for-16 in spite of making only six field goals in the half. Seven different players for M-P-B (4-6, 1-0 District 6) had at least one successful trip to the...
An idea that was to witness its genesis in 2020 came to fruition three years later, following two instances of weather cancellation and one to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Central City played host to the State Class B Junior Varsity Wrestling Tournament at Carrington High School Saturday, January 14, with schools from throughout the state trotting out their younger grapplers for some valuable big-match chops in a largely low-pressure environment. CHS, the host school, placed fifth among 19...

The Medina/Pingree-Buchanan Thunder girls have hit a rough patch of their 2022-23 schedule, and are mired in a six-game losing streak. The Thunder took two competitive defeats to a pair of respectable District 5 opponents in LaMoure/Litchville-Marion, 35-31, and Edgeley-Kulm-Montpelier, 47-37. Game action with L-L-M was close throughout, though the Loboes did not make their own lives easier with a very poor 10-for-28 performance at the free-throw stripe which included 0-for-7 in the fourth...
It took the whole first quarter to get it going, but once the Harvey-Wells County Hornets got into their run-and-gun game, they dominated the remaining three quarters and brought home a 76-41 victory over the Dakota Prairie Knights in Fessenden on Monday, January 16. The super regional matchup started with a slower-paced game, one that the Hornets prefer not to have. Keaton Keller and Tate Grossman scored six for HWC and Caden Joramo scored eight for Dakota Prairie as the Hornets led, 14-11,...
Harvey-Wells County picked up their first regional basketball win of the year, defeating Warwick on the road with their biggest offensive output of the year as they scored 67 points. The Hornets also played solid ball against the TGU Titans after the first quarter, but lost the non-region matchup by 21 points. HWC 69, Warwick 37 HWC turned up the defensive intensity, causing 38 Warwick turnovers and in the process picked up their third win on the season in a Super Region 4 victory over the...
Here's the buzz. The New Rockford-Sheyenne Rockets traveled to Fessenden on Tuesday, Jan. 10 to take on Super Region 4 competitors, the Harvey/Wells County Hornets, in their nest. After losing to H/WC at the annual CNDC tournament back on Dec. 1, the Rockets knew they had to work harder to push past them. Kelsie Belquist and Kaiya O'Connor blasted out of the gates for the Rockets, with Belquist swishing two field goals and a free-throw and O'Connor swishing one field goal and one 3-pointer....
M-P-B had a mixed result in their Saturday, January 14, doubleheader at Ellendale, as the girls took a 16-point win, 48-32, and the boys fell to the fifth-ranked and still unbeaten Cardinals, 68-43. The Thunder's Allison Thomas finished with 17 points and Lilly Bohl added 12 in the intra-Region 3 victory, which improved the girls' record to 5-6. Ellendale was paced by nine points from Kali Norton. In the nightcap, high-flying EHS rode 21 points by Mason Molan, along with double-digit nights...
Carrington's return to the wrestling mats for the new year, at least on the girls' side, featured the return of one competitor to action for her first matches this campaign. Junior Taya Lura healed sufficiently from an elbow injury to take home seventh place at 105 pounds at the Bismarck Rotary, going 2-2 with two pins in the process. Three other Cardinal wrestlers placed at the Rotary, led by fifth place showings by Mercedes Lura at 120 pounds and Ashley Lindberg at 250, and Khendra Garcia's...
In another large tournament on Friday-Saturday, January 6-7, the Carrington boys wrestlers had three total placers at the Bismarck Rotary, held at the Event Center. Senior Trace Hoggarth had the best individual finish of third place at 120 pounds, with three pins, a major decision and decision win comprising his five victories. His only loss came to an undefeated Watertown, S.D., wrestler, Sloan Johannsen, in the semifinal round. At 152, Kael Kovar took four of his six trips to the mat to place...
If the Ellendale Cardinals shoot like they did at this year’s Stutsman County Tournament, there most likely won’t be a Region 3 program that can hang with them come postseason time. The back-to-back tournament title-winners made it a three-peat with a 69-52 win over the M-P-B Thunder Saturday night, January 7, at the Jamestown Civic Center, on the strength of 11 three-pointers. And that wasn’t even their best long-range shooting night of the tourney, as EHS drained 14 trifectas in a 72-47 win o...
The Rugby Panthers outscored Harvey-Wells County by 10 in the second quarter, and then needed double overtime to defeat the Hornets, 68-62, in Rugby on Friday, January 6. The Hornets had the hot hand to begin the game, as Tate Grossman knocked down two treys and Gabe Allmaras made another, helping HWC to a 9-4 lead with just 1:30 off the clock. The strong inside work of the Panthers' Brody Schneibel, who scored seven, and the versatility of Erik Foster, who chipped in with four more, gave Rugby...
On Thursday, January 5, the Carrington Cardinals kept their winning ways going with a dominant 66-20 victory over the Cardinals of Ellendale. Carrington, by now well known for their full-court pressure, stuck to what's been working for them on Thursday, and Ellendale couldn't cope. CHS piled on the pressure all game long, rendering Ellendale incapable of generating consistent offense. Carrington juniors Madison Johnson and Kacie Rexin were a particularly sharp thorn in their side, as the two of...
The Central McLean Cougars kept their unbeaten season alive and kept their top 10 ranking in Class B Girls intact with a convincing 65-33 win over Harvey-Wells County in Harvey on Saturday, January 7. A quick look at the line score would sum up this game pretty well. The Cougars started with 27 first- quarter points, including four three-pointers, as they led by 17 after one. Taya Hornberger connected on a three-pointer, and Ashtyn Smith added two more and a two-and-one as Smith scored 10 and...

As the luck of the schedule maker would have it, it took three full days before Carrington and Griggs/Midkota renewed acquaintances. Fresh off the Cards’ 55-44 win in the consolation championship in the Stutsman County Tournament, the Cards and Titans locked up once again, this time in a District 5 counter at the East Gym. A 13-1 run for Carrington set the tone right from the whistle, and they withstood an early spurt of the Titans’ own to take a 24-point victory, 61-37, and improve to 2-0 in di...
The Carrington boys wrestlers didn't win all four of their duals in last week's worth of triangulars in Casselton (January 5) and Lisbon (January 10), but they took the most important ones. In a Region 2 three-team dual meet, the Cards took a 35-33 squeaker over the Central Cass Squirrels and a 51-30 win against HWC to keep their regional dual record perfect at 4-0 for the winter. CHS didn't have much of any luck against the Class B power Lisbon Broncos five nights later, falling in 51-30...
On Tuesday, January 10, the Carrington girls wrestling team traveled to Lisbon to compete in their third and fourth duals of the year. The Cards faced the host Broncos, and took a 54-27 victory mostly on forfeit points. Even with that, Carrington still recorded three pin victories and dropped a close overtime match at 120 pounds. Another match with East Region implications followed, as CHS took on West Fargo United, a co-op of the three West Fargo high schools (WFHS, Sheyenne and Horace)....
The biggest collection of high school wrestling talent in the nation descended upon the Fargodome for two days for the annual Rumble on the Red tournament Thursday and Friday, December 29-30. In the boys' division, varsity and junior varsity brackets were contested at 14 weight classes, and two Minnesota programs came out on top when all was said and done. New Prague and Waconia, to the southwest and due west of the Twin Cities metro area, respectively, won the varsity and JV divisions....
As Minnesota schools were dominating the boys' varsity and JV divisions at the Rumble on the Red in Fargo, the home state girls were representing quite well in their portion of the mega-tournament. Nine of the top 10 schools, led by Bismarck High's 206 points, were from North Dakota, and the Flickertail State grabbed the top four podium positions. Carrington's first-year girls program had two wrestlers make placement matches, and the team came in 14th place overall with 74 points. Junior Kylie S...
Carrington's young wrestlers also got into the action from the Rumble on the Red tournament in Fargo over the Christmas/New Year's break. Placers from the tournament are as follows: True Second Place: Landin Clifton, 10-and-under (10U) 70 pounds Third: Rynna Jorgensen, 9U 64-67 girls Fourth: Gannon Inglish, 10U 60; Duke Sauby, 6U 50 Fifth: William Jorgensen, 12U 150+ Sixth: Wyatt Stickel, 8U 80 Wrestlers who competed, but did not place, are as follows: Charlie Sauby, 8U 55; Briggs Garber, 10U...
The massive snowstorms had other ideas, but now the Carrington wrestling programs are getting a few more dual matches under their belts.

At 5:30, the Carrington girls will wrestle Lisbon on Mat 2, and Napoleon boys take on Lisbon on Mat 1. The boys schedule will follow with Carrington vs. Napoleon and Carrington vs. Lisbon, and...
