I know firsthand that farming and ranching has never been easy. My wife, Sharla, and I still run our family farm outside of Big Sandy on the same land my grandparents homesteaded more than 100 years ago. For our family and producers across Montana, working the land that’s been passed down for generations has never been about just making a buck — it’s a way of life in rural America. But the reality is that this business comes with real, sometimes overwhelming, uncertainty. This administration’s trade war hasn’t made it any ea...

On the opening weekend of the 2019 Frontier Conference football season, the young Montana State University-Northern Lights found themselves in a shoot out with Rocky Mountain College. So Saturday must have felt like deja vu, for both teams. In a Frontier rematch, the Lights started fast but could only watch as RMC raced past Northern 57-39 in front of a big crowd at Blue Pony Stadium. The loss dropped the Lights to 0-6 in the Frontier and 1-6 overall. "All I can say is, we're...
Andrew Rolin has said, from literally the day he became head coach at Montana State University-Northern, that he wanted the Lights to be a dominant running team. Of course, Rolin, who is certainly an offensive innovator, didn't mean that he wanted the Lights to be a three-yard-and-a-cloud-of dust program either. No, he just wanted Northern to be dynamic and dominant running the ball. And while in his first year-and-half at the helm, it hasn't always been the case, for much of...
Sacramento, Calif., — In the FCS Game of the Week, the Montana Grizzlies couldn't match the firepower and energy of an upstart Sacramento State team. The Hornets defeated their third straight ranked opponent, knocking off No. 5 Montana 49-22 in the Homecoming game at perhaps the biggest game in Hornet Stadium history. The No. 15 Hornets dominated both sides of the ball en route to the big win, as Montana returned from the bye week with a rusty performance. The Grizzlies f...

The Rams had shut out Havre the last two years. This time, the Blue...

Before their season-opener with Mount Royal University, veteran Montana State University-Northern Skylight's head coach Chris Mouat said a team is never quite ready to start a new season. However, after falling behind 6-0, the Skylights proved, they were ready. Northern opened its 2019-2020 season Sunday afternoon with a 63-50 win over Mount Royal inside the Armory Gymnasium. "Obviously, there were some first-game jitters," Mouat said. "This was not just our first game of the...

I can’t lie, it was weird being back inside Blue Pony Stadium on Saturday. It was weird because, I felt like I hadn’t covered or watched a football game in there in a long, long time. But most of all, it was weird because, the last time any of us were in there, it was about as bad of weather as I’ve ever seen at a game there, and, the weird thing was, it was only the end of September. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to drudge up that day last month for anything. It was ugly...
