    John Hamilton|Jan 11, 2018

    It wasn’t as good as it could have been, but the Plains-Hot Springs Savage Horsemen grappled their way through the Western Montana Duals tournament in Ronan Friday and Saturday, contending in five duals in the two days of mat action. The only thing that P-HS coach Jeff Kujala said was disappointing was the fact that the pool they were placed in Friday was made up of teams that the Savage Men already see a lot of, squads like Thompson Falls, Florence and Libby during any given regular season. “We see a lot of those teams already so it was a lit...

    John Hamilton|Jan 11, 2018

Now 3-1 in 14C play and 7-1 overall, coach Mike Cole and his H-Men return to action Friday hosting Two Eagle River, before visiting Noxon Saturday. Derick Curry scored 15 points to pace the Horsemen against St. Regis, Jay VonHeeder added 14, Wyatt Weyers eight, Kyle Weeks and Tanner Ovitt six each, Esvin Reyes four,...

We need to rise above the middle of the pack and this would be a good place to start.” Providing just such an opportunity this week, Noxon has two home boy-girl doubleheaders on tap to get well quick, hosting Troy Thursday and 14C rival Plains Saturda...
