As long as the effort is there, Hot Springs Savage Heat girls basketball coach Richard Jackson is not going to complain. And he was not complaining early this week while talking about last week’s games – a 49-26 loss to Arlee in Arlee Thursday and a 47-18 win over Two Eagle River in Hot Springs Thursday. “The score from the Arlee game in no way indicates how we played,” he said. “We played with absolute hustle and never gave up at any point. Arlee is a good team but I cannot complain about my girls, they gave it their all.” Freshman Ka...
Florence Falcons fly faster. At least right now at any rate. The Florence Falcons flew past the Lady Hawks 78-48 in Western B action at TFHS Friday. Now 0-4 in non-conference play, coach Doree Thilmony and the Lady Hawks host Plains in another non-conference tilt Thursday before opening District 7B play at Troy Friday. The Troy game will be the final game played in 2018. Picked as one of the favorites to contend for Western B title, the Falcons flew out to a lead of 18-6 after one quarter and...
Free throw shooting blues sunk the Blue Hawk boys last week in Florence. Connecting on only four of 17 free throw attempts, when only one or two more conversions would have made all the difference, coach Jake Mickelson and his cold-shooting Hawks fell 38-37 to the Falcons in a non-conference game Thursday. Mickelson said the Hawks fell behind early in Florence and trailed at one point 20-5 before fighting their way back. The Hawks actually led by four points in the fourth quarter before their poor free throw shooting finally sunk the ship....
The Noxon Lady Red Devils won twice last week, taking down Troy 47-28 in a non-conference game in Noxon Thursday and knocking off the Two Eagle River Eagles 63-15 in 14C action Pablo Friday. Now 1-1 in 14C play and 4-2 overall, coach Ryan Weltz and his Devils complete the 2018 portion of their schedule hosting Charlo Friday. Once again one of the favorites in the conference, coach Bret Thompson and his Lady Vikings downed Plains in Plains in a key 14C contest last week. “Charlo is very good again, they are a solid team that doesn’t beat the...
A win by any other name is still a win. Although there was nothing very pretty about it – in fact, it was actually pretty ugly – the Noxon Red Devil boys defeated Troy 49-46 in Noxon Thursday. Coach Bart Haflich’s Devils improved to 6-0 with an equally ugly 40-30 win over Two Eagle River in Pablo Friday. “It’s good to be 6-0 but we didn’t play well in either game last week,” Haflich said. “We finished the game well with Troy but, obviously we still have a lot of stuff that we need to work on.” Haflich said Troy actually led the Devils with a...
It is time to reevaluate and move on. "We are pretty much at the halfway point of the season right now," Thompson Falls wrestling coach Ian Taylor said. "We need each kid to reevaluate where we are right now in relation to where we want to be. "Then we can take stock of what we need to do to reach our goals," he added, "because the reality of it is, is that there is not much of the season left once we get past the holidays." The Blue Hawks made one of their bigger annual trips of the season...
Twelve out of 15 ain't bad. The Plains-Hot Springs Savage Horsemen wrestling team competed in a quadrangular mixer match at Arlee, also including Bigfork and Clark Fork, and coach Jeff Kujala reports that his Savage Horsemen enjoyed a very productive evening of wrestling, winning 12 of the 15 matches they competed in. "It went really well, almost every kid got at least two matches, and we won a lot of those matches with first period pins," Kujala said. "We are extremely pleased with how we...

A dinosaur has a new home at the Sinclair Gas Station in Plains last week, but now the parents, Dave and JoAnne Colyer need to come up with a name for their new addition. To take off the pressure of giving it a name, they've decided to let the public do it. The Colyers received the 12-foot long, 6-foot tall Sinclair mascot last Thursday as part of a regional promotion for the Sinclair company and its Missoula distributor, High Noon. JoAnne said the Plains station was one of two out of 10...
