In their first chance to see the entire Eastern A Division this season, the Havre High tennis teams trekked to Glendive for the Elks Invitational over the weekend. And while weather once again played a factor in the meet, the Blue Ponies got plenty out of the long trip east. “We played a lot of tennis in a short amount of time, and that’s what we went to Glendive to do,” HHS head coach George Ferguson said. “We got to play a lot of really good competition and I thought...
The Havre High softball team was hoping for one, maybe even two victories over Livingston Saturday. But, in the final two games of the Central A regular season, they were denied, succumbing to a Ranger's sweep. In the first game of the doubleheader in Livingston Saturday, the Havre offense got just five runs out of 12 hits compared to the Rangers, who plated 10 runs on their 11 hits to notch a 10-5 win. The second game turned out to be a back-and-forth affair, with the lead ch...
The Havre High track teams continued their busy schedules this past weekend, competing in Great Falls at the Fairfield-Belt meet held inside Memorial Stadium Saturday. And with it being the Blue Ponies' third meet in just eight days, and with many Havre athletes slated to take part in the Glasgow Top 10 Tuesday, some individuals were limited in events and as a result, the Havre girls finished fourth with 54 points, behind Seeley-Swan, which won the meet with 79 points. Fort...
Watching your children play sports is nerve-racking. There is no question about it, but imagine having to watch your children compete against each other, with the winner ending the season for the other. Well, for the Acor family, that has been a reality over the past couple of seasons of Havre High tennis, as the Acor sisters, Kadyn, a senior, and Cassidy, a junior, were each singles players for the Blue Ponies prior to this season, which forced the sisters to go head-to-head...
During the last week and change, the Havre High softball team has been taking part in an important stretch of its season and Saturday, the Blue Ponies will continue with a crucial road doubleheader against Livingston. Havre, which comes into the double-dip with a 4-7 overall record and a 1-3 mark in the Central A conference, will wrap up conference play with the two games against the Rangers, which are scheduled to start at 3 p.m. "We are hoping that we can keep this momentum...
The Havre High tennis teams have little time to rest right now, and that's exactly the way head coach George Ferguson likes it. After playing three duals Tuesday in Great Falls, the Blue Ponies will set out for Glendive Friday morning, where they'll get six matches in two days at the Elks Invitational. Havre will see the entire Eastern A, while in Glendive, which, Ferguson said, will be beneficial, not only for the rest of this season but also in the future as the Ponies will...
Wind has seemingly been a factor in every tennis match the Havre Blue Ponies have played this month. And it was again Tuesday in Great Falls. And, yet, the Blue Ponies didn't let 30 mph winds with gusts even higher, spoil an important day on the tennis courts. Tuesday, Havre took on Butte Central, Great Falls High and CMR in dual action in the Electric City and, combined, the Pony boys and girls came away with a 5-1 record. "Our kids showed so much toughness and heart today,"...
It has been a busy few days for the Havre High track teams, but despite just competing last Friday in Belgrade, both Blue Pony teams put together solid showings down in Malta Tuesday night. While both of the team titles in the Malta Invitational went to the home team, Havre finished as the runner-up in both competitions. It was the fourth top-two finish of the season so far for the Pony girls and the first top-three showing all season for the boys. The Malta girls scored a...
Fresh off an important win over conference rival Lewistown, the Havre High softball team traveled to Glasgow Tuesday looking to keep that positive momentum going forward and, thanks to an offensive explosion, the Blue Ponies did just that. After plating just three runs and two hits in a shutout win over Lewistown in Havre Monday, the Ponies went off for 20 runs on 21 hits Tuesday night, defeating the Scotties 20-1 in just three innings of work. Three different Havre players...
It's amazing what can change in a few days time. Last Thursday, Lauren Kato and the Havre Blue Ponies allowed 20 runs in a loss to Lewistown. Four days later, facing the same team inside the Sixth Avenue Memorial Field Monday night, Kato and the Ponies not only beat the Eagles, but they also shut them out, winning 3-0 for their first Central A conference win of the season. "It feels great," Kato said. "All of us definitely pitched in for that win. It was a total team effort...
In the spring, the Montana State University-Northern golf teams get just one chance to compete. And yet, that one chance is also the biggest tournament of every season. The Lights and Skylights were in the desert last week for the 2019 Frontier Conference Championships, which was played at Papago Golf Club in Phoenix. The Northern men were led by junior Devin Bray who fired a final-round 75 to vault himself into a fifth-place finish, and Frontier All-Conference honors for the...
The Havre High softball team played host to Belgrade in one last Central A doubleheader between the two rivals last Friday at the Sixth Avenue Memorial Field and even though the Blue Ponies didn't come away with any victories, according to head coach Tony Vigliotti, they still improved. "That's a state championship team," Vigliotti said after the Ponies were defeated 11-6 and 9-0 last Friday afternoon. "I know it may not seem like it on the scoreboard, but we got better today....
The Havre High girls track team was excited to test itself against some Class A competition last Friday in Belgrade and after tying for fourth, the Blue Ponies held up pretty well. The Gallatin Valley Invitational, hosted by Belgrade, featured a slew of Class A teams, as well as Bozeman and it was Dillon that came away with team titles in both the boys and girls competitions. The Dillon girls won with 88 points followed by Lewistown in second with 69 and Belgrade in third...
In the busiest stretch of their season, the Havre High tennis teams are starting to gear everything toward next month’s Central A Divisional Tournament in Lewistown. That’s why last Friday was so big for the Ponies. Havre was in Lewistown for the Central A Preview Meet where the Ponies went head-to-head with conference rivals Livingston and Lewistown. And while the Pony boys and girls were combined 4-0 in the duals, HHS head coach George Ferguson was even more excited by the...
If you are going to win in college football, at any level, including the Frontier Conference, then you have to be able to score points quickly and with what we saw during the Montana State University-Northern football spring game Saturday, the Lights might be able to do that in 2019. Certainly, building an explosive offense has been on the agenda for head coach Andrew Rolin, but in his first season at the helm, the Light were the worst offensive teams in the Frontier on their...
After weeks of practicing and even one controlled scrimmage, the Montana State University-Northern football team will be playing live football Saturday when the Lights take part in their annual spring game at the practice field on the MSU-N campus. It will be the second spring game for head coach Andrew Rolin and essentially, the team will take part in another controlled scrimmage featuring the offense against defense with the action getting underway at 1 p.m. Players won't...
In terms of results, the first month of the track season couldn't have gone much better for the Havre High girls track team as the Blue Ponies have finished first or second as a team in each of their four track meets. However, much of that success has come against teams from Class B and Class C. Havre hasn't had a chance to compete against many Class A teams yet this season, which makes today's Gallatin Valley Invitational even more exciting for HHS. Events got underway this...
The Havre High softball team hit the road Thursday night to take on the Lewistown Eagles in the Blue Ponies' first Central A conference game of the season and, unfortunately for HHS, things didn't go quite as planned. Despite another spectacular effort at the plate from Kinzee Peterson, Peyton Brown and the rest of the offense, which managed to score 10 runs, Havre still fell to Lewistown by the score of 20-10. The loss dropped the Ponies record to 2-5 overall and their mark i...
The Havre High softball team was supposed to have opened Central A conference play a couple of weeks ago, but because of weather and postponements, HHS won't open conference play until tonight, when the Blue Ponies will travel to Lewistown. Because of the trip tonight to Lewistown, which will be followed by a doubleheader against Belgrade Friday in Havre, the Ponies will play three Central A games in two days, a critical stretch as Havre, Lewistown, Belgrade and Livingston...
With now two meets canceled already this season, Havre High head tennis coach George Ferguson says, his players really need to play Friday in Lewistown. The Blue Ponies, both varsity and junior varsity, were supposed to battle Great Falls Central and Chinook Tuesday, but rain washed the day out, while Havre also lost the season-opening Cut Bank Invite. This means, an already important Central A Preview Meet Friday in Lewistown becomes even more so. "We're at a really critical...
It's been a big last few days or so for Havre High junior Janae Boles who recently signed to play softball next year at Dawson Community College in Glendive. That was last Thursday. This Thursday, Boles and the Blue Ponies will start a critical stretch of Central A conference games, which begins with a road game against Lewistown. Havre also returns home Friday to take on Belgrade in a doubleheader and rematch of last season's Central A championship game. For Boles, it's also...
As a young football team last season, the Montana State University-Northern Lights have experienced players returning at a number of positions. Yet, in terms of talent and production coming back, it's hard to compare any group of players to what the Lights have coming back at wide receiver. And while Northern suffered some losses there too, MSU-N returns one of the most productive wideouts in the Frontier Conference in Bryce Bumgardner. Another one of Northern's leading pass...
It took a couple of weeks off and a bus trip to Lewistown, but the Havre High softball team got into the win column for the first time during the 2019 season after playing four games in two days over the weekend. The Blue Ponies, who played four Eastern A opponents in non-conference action during the two-day Lewistown Invitational, split on both Friday and Saturday. Havre defeated Miles City 12-8 Friday afternoon after losing earlier in the day to Hardin 11-6. Then, HHS lost t...
For the first time this season, the Havre High tennis teams were up against all Class A rivals, and while the scores and results were mixed, head coach George Ferguson said that the effort and the quality of tennis was exactly what he was hoping to see from his Blue Ponies. Havre was in Cut Bank Friday and Saturday for the annual Class A Duals. On Friday, the Pony boys swept Libby (6-1) and Polson (5-2), while the HHS girls beat Libby 5-2 and fell to defending Class A...
The Havre High girls track team had a chance to win a fourth straight track meet this past Saturday at the Havre Lions track meet, but unfortunately for the Blue Ponies, the Fort Benton Longhorns were able to beat them on a sunny but windy day at the Havre Middle School track. With their team at less than 100 percent due to injury, the Pony girls still put together a respectable showing in their home meet with 93 points. Loy Waid (1:03) finished first in the 400-meter dash...
