On Thursday, Dec. 16, the New Rockford-Sheyenne varsity men's basketball team kicked off the three-day-long CNDC Tournament in Harvey. The weekend would go on to bring some highs, namely their first win of the season, and some lows, beginning with their opening round match-up with the St. John Woodchucks. St. John began scoring early and often against NR-S, inflicting much of their damage from beyond the arc. Meanwhile, Rockets' turnovers were keeping them at arm's length for most of the game....

I still tell everyone to be careful and proceed with extreme caution. When you get these hard cold snaps like we are finally getting, you can expect cracks and pressure ridges that can create some major issues and h...
The New Rockford-Sheyenne annual Elementary Christmas Concert was held on Thursday, Dec. 16 at 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. in the New Rockford-Sheyenne Gymnasium.

That's because pike are creatures of speed, sprinters capable of blasting across a short distance at an incredible pace...
