But now, it’s tim...

The action begins tonight with a nationally ranked showdown between the Lights and No. 10 Rocky Mountain...

A Havre man accused of knocking out a man and then raping the man’s 5-year-old son denied those charges Tuesday. Elliot Q.

After entering the holiday break looking to do a little tweaking and looking for some much needed rest, the Havre High wrestling team is once again ready to take the mat.

They had earned top finishes each weekend in action including a second-place finish at the CMR Holiday Classic and a No. 1 finish at the Mining City Duals. If the Ponies utilized the break well, they should c...
