    Updated Mar 14, 2022

    from Judy Vosen Local Red Cross Blood Drive Volunteer coordinator Editor’s note: This this story is running again to correct errors introduced by the editor.

    Kason Clark|Updated Mar 14, 2022

    MISSOULA - The third time was the charm for the Havre High girls basketball team as they finally defeated Billings Central this season. But the win in the third meeting in the trilogy with the Rams was no ordinary win. No, the Ponies' 37-30 win over Billings Central Saturday night in Dahlberg Arena capped off yet another Class A state championship run for the Ponies, their fourth in five years. "You can't beat a good team three times and I think it was our time to beat them,"...

    Kason Clark|Updated Mar 14, 2022

    MISSOULA - When I began covering the Havre High girls basketball team near the end of the 2020-21 season, I did not yet appreciate how great a program it is. But I quickly learned how good the Blue Ponies are as they went on to win the state championship that year. With the addition of another state title after defeating Billings Central, 37-30, this past Saturday night, I now know I am witness to one of the best programs in the state. While they retained several core players...

    GREAT FALLS — The last time the Box Elder Bears played for a state championship, they did so in the Four Seasons Arena. That was 20-19 when the Bears won it all for the second year in a row. Fast forward to Saturday night, and there they were, playing for another state championship in Great Falls. This time though, it didn’t work out, as the Bears fell to Northern C rival Roy-Winifred, 48-40 in the 2022 Class C state title game inside a sold-out Four Seasons Arena. “I’m proud...

  • George Ferguson: Blue Pony boys' trip to state was a huge step

    George Ferguson|Updated Mar 14, 2022

    MISSOULA ­­— As Havre head coach Walynn Burgess said, postseason basketball is about getting hot at the right time. His Blue Ponies did that the last three weeks of the 2022 season. Unfortunately, the hot streak came to an end at the Class A state tournament Friday morning in Missoula. In a Class A state tourney loser-out game inside Dahlberg Arena, the Blue Ponies fell to Polson 74-58. Havre got an outstanding effort from junior Xavier Butler, but it wasn’t quite enoug...
