  • Ulrich pitches no-hitter at South Border

    Pam Harrison|May 24, 2021

    The Black Sox finished off regional play with a bang, defeating South Border (Wishek/Ashley) 5-0. The pitching by senior Evan Ulrich was the highlight of the game. A walk to the number nine hitter, Connor Kosiak, in the sixth inning was the only thing standing between Ulrich and a perfect game. Ulrich was able to pitch all seven innings with zero hits and five strikeouts on a very efficient 69 pitches. The Sox offense had traffic on the bases in every inning, but was not able to break through until the fifth. Koby Duda started off the inning...

  • Our Outdoors: Cream of the Crop

    Nick Simonson|May 24, 2021

    A shellacking. A beatdown. A butt-whooping. All these terms paled in my young mind when describing a drubbing on the baseball field, when compared to the term "getting creamed." That descriptor suggests that the opposing team had swung their bats so mightily, so frequently and with such success, that they converted our pasty-white, pre-summer milky makeup into slow-moving whipped cream on the diamond. While disappointing to be on the end of such a creaming, it made the idea of a slice of apple...

NDWF worked closely with lawmakers of both parties to ensure that the North Dakota Game & Fish Department (NDG&F) budget saw an increase and that key conservation and access prio...

However, the lack of meltwater, limited spring rains and lingering drought conditions from the summer and fall of 2020 may pose a major...
