The 2014 football season for the Glasgow Scotties was memorable and made a lasting impression on many both in and outside the community even though the team may have fallen short of the goals and expectations for the players, coaches and community. That being said, the Scottie football team officially concluded the 2014 season with their annual football banquet prior to the Christmas break. As head coach, I spoke about a letter received from a playoff opponent family in addition to a number of a... Full story

Scoring was even for the teams in the third period with... Full story
The final results are in at Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks Havre check station for the 2014 hunting season. Overall, hunter numbers and big-game harvest were down. “In general, big game harvest was slower this year,” said Havre-area wildlife biologist Scott Hemmer. “This is likely due in part to the elimination of all Region 6 deer B licenses and buck-only harvest on the A-tag for mule deer. The weather this year also may have affected harvest. It was unseasonably warm at the beginning of the season, which may have reduced game sight...

The M-ettes of Malta are M-pressive this season. This the Scotties know. Malta's veteran basketball team visited GHS last week and showed in a 58-15 victory why it's a contender for the state Class B title a year after finishing second. “You know, Malta is tough,” Scotties coach Jon Kolstad told The Courier. “They've got good shooters. They're an experienced, tough team. I think they're one of the top four teams in Class B in the state. They were good competition for our girls to play.” Kolsad said the Scotties played OK, handling the press a...

Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks is seeking public comment on a proposed rule that would adjust the list of waters where commercial bait seining is allowed in Montana. Three waters are proposed for addition to the approved seining list, and one is proposed for deletion. The water proposed for deletion is Flat Lake near Fort Peck in the Eastern Fishing District, which doesn't produce suitable numbers of bait fish to make commercial seining a sustainable activity. In addition, Flat Lake water is periodically shared with Fort Peck Reservoir via a...

The Scotties outscored DC every quarter. "They were ready to play after 13 (preseason) p...
The Saco-Whitewater-Hinsdale Lady Panthers displayed their potential as a state contender at last weekend's Class C Showcase in Glasgow, the only area boys or girls team to go 2-0 in the season opening event.

They cruised past Highwood 55-39 on Friday and Broadus 64-37 on Saturday. Junior guard Tatum Moore, a Billings Gazette Class C all-state preseason pick, led...
