When the Havre High wrestling team arrives in Billings this weekend for the All-Class State Tournament, there will be a lot of familiarity. One thing, however, that won't be familiar for the Blue Ponies is the role of underdogs. It might seem strange for the five-time defending Class A state champions to come into the state tournament as an underdog, but after a dominant regular season for Sidney, the Eagles will come in as the favorite, and when the action gets underway Frida...

Last night, Don and Dorothy, former neighbors, made arrangements to meet me to go to Loony Beans in Cerritos for breakfast. I went to the lobby at 8:50. I like to be prompt. I waited until 9:45 before I gave up; figured my wires had gotten crossed. Things had gone bump in the night. I had left my simple, cheap, adequate Mexican cellphone on the bed where I was lounging with a book. I always, always, always put said phone away in my bag in its pocket. Later in the night, when...

This week, it doesn't matter that the Ponies lost twice in duals to Sidney, or that they came out on the short end of the team scores at last week's Eastern A Divisional in Belgrade. No, the only thing that matters now is how the 14 HHS grapplers wrestle inside the Rimrock Auto Arena Friday...

In the annual,...
Over the years, the Chinook Sugarbeeters have been a force to be reckoned with at the Class B-C State wrestling tournament and with six wrestlers headed to the Rimrock Auto Arena at the Metra in Billings this weekend, the Beeters are looking strong once again. Certainly, the All-Class State Tournament will have a different feel to it, since the Beeters will be competing without former state champion Tate Niederegger for the first time in four years, but with a mixture of...
