At the University Providence Tournament Saturday, Northern bested Medicine Hat College in four sets, but fell to Benedictine University in straight sets to go 1-1 on the weekend, and...
Over the course of the last couple of season, the Rocky Mountain College Battlin' Bears have literally tortured the Montana State University-Northern football team.

The Lights lost a 53-34 shootout with the No. 23 Bears, the defending Frontier champions Saturday in Billings — in a game which saw both t...
