Blake Cantrell, Rocky Boy Basketball

The Rocky Boy Stars are off to a hot start, thanks in large part to play of standout Blake Cantrell. Last weekend, Cantrell scored 23 points and grabbed seven rebounds in helping the Stars take down rival Harlem on the road. Cantrell, who is averaging nearly 15 points per night, also scored in double figures as the Stars beat Cut Bank last Friday night. Cantrell and the Stars are 6-1 so far this season.

Jade Wendland, North Star Basketball

North Star’s Jade Wendland had a big weekend on the hardwood. The sophomore for the Knights poured in 31 points in the Knights’ win over Class B Conrad last Saturday in Rudyard. But she wasn’t done. Monday night, Wendland scored 23 points as the Knights raced past the defending state champion Box Elder Bears. Wendland is also a standout volleyball player for the Knights in the fall.
