  • A sudden end

    Erik Gjovik|Oct 30, 2023

    Those darned fourth downs. A case could have been made that if they had made three more key stops during their otherwise very-successful campaign in 2023, the Carrington Cardinals may have been sitting with nine wins in 10 games instead of six. But armchair speculation is ultimately just that, and Carrington played the cards they were dealt in hosting their first home playoff game since 2018 when the 6-2 Oakes Tornadoes invaded Cardinal Stadium. The Tornadoes proved their mettle, tested by...

  • Kindred eliminates Hornets

    Lane Moellenkamp|Oct 30, 2023

    The Kindred Vikings had too much of a lot of things in a 49-6 rolling of the Harvey-Wells County Hornets in the first round of the Class A playoffs in Kindred on Saturday, October 21. Size, speed, numbers and just a little more size helped the Vikings keep their season record unblemished at 9-0, while HWC finished their season at 5-5 overall. The Viking offensive line averaged 248 pounds across the front, and the defense line wasn't much different. The O-line and D-line were anchored by...

  • Toughest girls on the block

    Erik Gjovik|Oct 30, 2023

    A pair of volleyball programs hoping to gain positive momentum into the start of their district tournaments met in Carrington's East Gym Monday night, October 23. Medina/Pingree-Buchanan, already locked in as the top seed in District 6, met the fourth-seeded Cardinals from District 5 in what has annually become an underrated rivalry of two teams with high yearly expectations. This time around, it was CHS, behind a stout effort on the blocking game and their scrappy earn-your-points back row,...

  • Hornets swept by ranked Bearcats

    Lane Moellenkamp|Oct 30, 2023

    For the second consecutive game, the Harvey-Wells County volleyball team faced a top-10 ranked team. This time around, HWC faced North Star, who was ranked #8 in the most recent state poll.

  • Blazing the trail: Cards' Pazdernik wins girls' Region title in Cooperstown

    Erik Gjovik|Oct 30, 2023

    Ten years (plus two days) to the day since it last happened, the Carrington cross country team has an East Region champion runner. Junior Kenadie Pazdernik crossed the finish line in 19 minutes, 55.5 seconds to capture victory in the girls' race at the penultimate postseason meet in Cooperstown Saturday morning, October 21. Her win was the first for a CHS runner at regionals since Ashley Neumiller won the race as a freshman in 2013. As a team, CHS finished in sixth place for the girls'...

  • So close... G-M nearly upsets NR-S

    Erik Gjovik|Oct 30, 2023

    A few points here and there separated the Griggs/Midkota Titans from what would have been their signature victory of the season on the volleyball court. In New Rockford Monday night, October 23, the Titans shocked defending Region 4 champion NR-S in the second and third sets, taking 25-23 wins in both following a 25-16 opening set loss, before the Rockets got their bearings and took the final two sets, 25-19 and 15-12, to escape with a win in the regular season finale for G-M. Kelsey Johnson...
