Grady Shipman threw the first two innings in the contest, and Schmitz covered the middle six to pick up the win. Lucas Hendrickson got the...

CHS got one qualifier at the weekend Clark and Sharon Lloyd Memorial, that being Haley Wolsky in the 100-meter hurdles with a time of 16.28 seconds.

Make that two siblings that have earned their way into their respective state golf meets via the automatic route.

Breezy wind conditions and temperatures in the 50s at Stadium '76 greeted the track and field runners, jumpers and throwers at the Kiwanis/Lions Track Meet Saturday, May 7.

Carrington split each game of a three-team doubleheader in Tolna Friday, May 6, dropping an 8-0, one-hit shutout loss to defending Region 3 and state champion LaMoure/Litchville-Marion, but getting one win for their efforts against Midkota/Dakota Prairie/Lakota/Griggs Co.

In the long-awaited return to action for area track teams, the Carrington pole vaulting crew had one of their most lucrative meets that they've ever experienced on the state qualification front.

It happened a day earlier than expected in order to beat the rain, and it was the first outdoor meet for many of the 700-plus track and field athletes and 24 teams that showed up in Fessenden on Thursday, April 28, for the HWC Junior High Invite. A wet, snowy spring has put a damper on the junior high season. In reality, there are only a couple of weeks left in the season and many performers were seeing their first outdoor meet of the year. To say the Fessenden facility was in top notch shape would be an understatement, but some hard work got...

The Carrington Cardinal softball program finally took the field for their first game as a varsity team Thursday, April 28, when they visited Mayville State University's Jerome Berg Field to take on the May-Port-CG Patriots. Playing their first game in Region 2, the Cards fell by a score of 21-0, but that result did not dampen the enthusiasm of the girls who took to the turf that day. This past Tuesday, the Cards made a return trip to Mayville to play Langdon/Edmore/Munich and Grafton. CHS got...

Two scheduled home games for the Carrington baseball team were moved to Wishek Thursday, April 28. In their first competitive action in a span of almost two-and-a-half weeks, the Cards took on South Border in their second meeting of the young season, and played the Kidder County Wolves in game two. That time away from the diamond ended up hurting Carrington's level of crispness and execution, as they dropped a 6-4 decision to the Mustangs and fell, 5-3, to the Wolves. After spotting South...
Midkota/Dakota Prairie/Lakota/Griggs Co. Central got one game in the books, an 8-6 win over SNR on April 4, then had to play the waiting game with the cold and snow for 24 days. Upon their return to the field on Thursday, April 28, defending state champion LaMoure/Litchville-Marion was their welcoming party. The Loboes were in no mood to be housewarming guests, rolling to a 10-0 win over the Mustangs. Midkota then ventured out of Region 3 for their home opener in Tolna against the May-Port-CG Patriots this past Monday, but the bats remained...
