The Glasgow cross country team pulled double duty this past week with the Capital City 7 of 7 meet in Helena on Oct. 4 and the Miles City Invitational on Oct. 6. Although most of the Scottie runners enjoy the 7 of 7 meet in Helena because it is an entirely different format than other meets, they also acknowledge that it is a difficult course. Essentially seven boys and seven girls race against each other and earn points for their team based on their finishing positions. Colton Pewitt, who compet...

The Scotties picked up another conference win in Wolf Point on Oct. 5, and improved their overall record to 4-2. Going into the game, the Scotties' head coach Pat Barnett, wasn't really familiar with how the Wolves were playing this season. After the match-up on Friday, he noted that they are probably the best team Wolf Point has had in a while. "They were a disciplined team," he recalled. Although Glasgow defeated the Wolves 36-7, it was a long first half, according to Barnett. "We scored...

"That was our goal," said head coach Pat Barnett of the milestone. "Now we have to make another goal. If we can get into the playoffs as the second seed, we can have another game on our home field. That's what we want." To get there, Glasgow will have to get past Wolf Point this weekend and then Malta on Oct. 19. Although Wolf Point hasn't been making...
Glasgow continues to dominate the cross country circuit, and the team only seems to be gaining ground. The Scotties ran in Frazer on Sept. 27 and at their Homecoming meet in Fort Peck on Sept. 29. The boys were able to claim first place at both events while the girls won in Frazer, but fell to Williston in Fort Peck. The course in Frazer definitely has its challenges for the runners, but is a fan favorite. From the spectator's vantage point, a substantial stretch of the Missouri River is the...
There's no love lost between Wolf Point and Glasgow on the volleyball court. After the Scotties were stripped of their district title last season for a rules infraction, the dynamics between the teams definitely shifted and when they met on the court, the atmosphere was charged. Glasgow hosted Wolf Point in Homecoming action on Sept. 27, and played with determination to a lively crowd. The Lady Scotties fought hard in their battle, but were unable to defeat the experienced Wolf Point squad and...
The Glasgow Scotties hosted the 0-3 Conrad Cowboys Sept. 21, playing to a sizable hometown crowd. Those that left early missed the best part: a Scottie win in the last seconds of the contest. The game was full of twists and turns, including four interceptions and countless penalties, most of which were to Glasgow's benefit. While the scoreboard remained dark for the first half of the game, the second half proved to be different. In the third quarter, Conrad scored back-to-back touchdowns with an... Full story

The GHS volleyball team was on the road twice last week with contests in Sidney, Sept. 18, and a two-day tournament in Dickinson, N.D., Sept. 21 and 22.

In Dickinson on Friday, the girls played some less inspired volleyball according to head coach Somer Hoerster. "We played very tentative and had a lot of errors," she noted. Glasgow... Full story
The Scottie cross country squad traveled to Havre for their annual invitational on Sept. 22, which is held on the campus of MSU-Northern. There wasn't a whole lot of improvement of individual times at the meet, but head coach Rod Karst isn't concerned about that. "Most of them are still competing for positions right now," he said. "I'd like to see more consistency." For the boys team, it was a battle for first and second, with nine of the top 10 finishers coming from either Glasgow or... Full story

The Lady Scotties hosted the Harlem Lady Wildcats for a conference match-up at Scottie gymnasium Sept. 14.

"I was super impressed with Harlem," said head coach for the Scotties, Somer Hoerster. "They worked really hard on their side of the net." Glasgow had their fair share of support in the stands too, led by the ever-enthusiastic Scottie cheer squad. Ultimately, the Scottie... Full story
Lustre handed North Country their second consecutive loss in volleyball action in Whitewater on Sept. 15. With three seniors, five juniors and one sophomore on their varsity roster, the Lady Lions bring plenty of experience to the game. While the Lady Mavericks consistently produce plenty of talent, their lineup this season is shorter on long-serving players. The Lady Lions battled through five sets to earn the win, defeating North Country 25-21, 25-12, 23-25, 19-25 and 15-9. Kassie Kirkaldie... Full story

Glasgow 50, Harlem 6 The Glasgow Scotties defeated the Harlem Wildcats 50-6 in their first home game of the season Sept. 7, in a reversal from their season opener. Glasgow's head football coach Pat Barnett said the game went well if not for a rocky initial start in the first quarter.

The Lady Scotties took on the Malta M-Ettes at home Sept. 6. There was a sizable fan base on hand for both teams and the atmosphere reeked of competitiveness.

First impressions of Shalynn Pedersen may be of a docile, unassuming teenager. At times, that may be true, but she also has athleticism and determination running through her veins. Her connection to sports can be traced back to her relationship with her uncle, Tyrel Shumway. Shumway, a 2010 GHS graduate, was an accomplished multi-sport athlete. In addition to being a part of a very successful Scottie football season, he also finished on top of his game as a state champion wrestler his senior yea...

The girls played well against...

"It was a hit and miss kind of thing," she explained. "We also struggled a bit to have real consistent passing." Following the games in Malta, Wasson said the team needed to focus more...
The Scottie cross country team was in Billings Aug. 31. With more than 300 varsity runners, it was likely the largest meet on the Scottie's schedule. With the number of competitors at the meet, the overall finishes by Ike Braaten and Wilson Overby were definitely impressive. Braaten led the boys with his 11th-place finish in 17:05.65, and Overby was right behind him in 13th place and a time of 17:08.71. For the girls, Iris McKean was the front-runner for the second week in a row. She finished 41...
The Glasgow Scotties took a skeleton crew of sorts to the Williston cross country meet on Aug. 25. With several athletes unable to compete for a number of reasons, the team didn't run to its full potential. Individually, however, the Scotties were strong, with the expected veterans taking the lead and the rookies carrying their share of the load. The course was set at the Williston Municipal Golf Course, which is located northwest of the city's center. The air was cold and there were a few...
