Night Hawks upset by Tigers in bid for regional championship
By COLE BENZ Record Editor
Call it an upset. Call it a game gone wrong. Call it what you will. Either way, the Night Hawks lost in the Region 7 quarterfinals and were sent home early. This game was a rematch of last year’s Region 7 semifinals, a game that New England won on their way to a Region 7 championship and state tournament berth. Hettinger/Scranton was hoping that this one would end differently. Early on it looked as though it was going to be a drubbing at the hands of the Night Hawks after they took an early 20-4 lead, but the Tigers clawed their way back to a 74-70 victory. Entering the game as the No. 3 seed, the 14-7 Night Hawks were poised to make some noise in the regional tournament, hoping to punch their ticket to state. For a while, it looked like they were well on their way. The Night Hawks cruised to a 17-2 lead, that included 15 points in the first three minutes of the game with the help

with a 16 point advantage. But New England senior Brady Bender kept his team in the game when it looked like all was lost. Never expressing much emotion, Bender kept pounding and shooting. He ended up scoring 18 of New England’s 23 first-half points. The Night Hawks had their chances to put the game away, multiple times. After New England brought the game to within two points, Hettinger/Scranton closed out the second quarter on a 10-1 run on their way to a 34-23 halftime lead. But the Tigers kept coming, and the Night Hawk defense allowed them to take a 40-38 lead around the two minute mark in the third quarter. On the ensuing possession, Night Hawk senior Thomas Maychrzak hit a key 3-pointer to jump start a nine-point scoring run, putting Hettinger/ Scranton back in front by five at the end of three quarters. Again, the Tigers kept coming. After growing their lead to eight points, New England cut
Roseland. The sponsors and volunteers throughout the year were thanks and reports of annual events were given to the crowd. The 2016 proposed budget was also presented and subsequently approved. One bylaw revision was recommended by the board to change the wording for the quorum during board meetings from 5 members to 51 percent of board members. The change was approved by the members. New board members elected were Kortney Kindsfater and Katy Kindsfater and Corie Lien. Rob Warbis and Ted Uecker will continue as members of the board. Aaron Roseland will be replaced as President by Aaron Koenig, Roseland will stay on as a board member. A new Vice President will be chosen by the board during the April meeting. A new student representative will be selected to sit on the board and that prospective member will be a junior at Hiettinger High School. That term will be one year. A retreat was scheduled for the Chamber Board on March 13. A major topic of discussion during the retreat will be better use of funds currently in savings. The highlight of the evening was the announcement of the Hettinger Area Chamber of Commerce awards. The awards highlighted work done by the winners during the 2015 calendar year. Winners were rec-

the finale of ‘The Voice,” which will air next week on NBC. Perkins performed two very unique songs on Monday night’s episode. First, the Scrantonnative performed a brave, almost operatic performance of the new song “Chandelier” by Australian singer-songwriter, Sia. Before the performance, Perkins expressed her concern about singing a pop song. During the performance, however, she hit the high notes fearlessly without missing a single one. Coach Adam Levine praised Perkins’ performance, saying she was one of the best singer’s the show has ever had.

plained. This rings true especially when helping people bring their babies into the world. In school, medical students learn about everything that goes on in order to have a baby. Because there are so many things happening all the time, this leaves a lot of room for things to go wrong. However, most pregnancies are perfectly healthy and normal. “It’s an exciting time in people’s lives.” Wellman said. “They always remember the birth of a child and to be able to there for that is fun.”

Hat Tips of Shirley on Facebook. We went on a harbor tour. She was dressed in a down filled Carhart jacket and had her winter scarf wrapped around her neck. If she could have, she would have worn her wool lined mittens and her face mask. But you don’t pack those for a vacation to the south in the winter. My mistake. And actually, it was quite comfortable, if you stayed indoors. The ad for the Hotel said “Ocean view rooms”! Wonderful. Even if it is a little chilly, it is nice to see the ocean. And maybe there is an ocean view. If you are higher up. And on the ocean side of the hotel. Our side looks down on the beautiful hotel pool! The ad didn’t mention the pool was outside and closed because of the thin film of ice on the water. It wouldn’t have been thick enough to play hockey, but it would have been good

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD
Civics Test Will Not Lead To Understanding Omdahl By LLOYD OMDAHL
“I don’t get caught up in these feel good bills,” explained Sen. David Hogue of Minot as he and three others withstood the rush of the North Dakota Senate to pass legislation requiring students to pass a minimal civics test before graduation. A dozen other states have adopted similar legislation. The senator was right in labeling the legislation as “feel-good” because a collection of facts will not do much to improve the understanding of the electorate. Joining Senator Hogue in dissent was Sen. Connie Triplett of Grand Forks who proposed including language that would require students to be exposed to “the governmental and historical concepts embodied
in the civics test.” The senator was saying that facts do not necessarily result understanding and what is needed in today’s electorate is understanding. In recent months, we have seen electoral ignorance of the governmental processes demonstrated by gun radicals and presidential candidates. When Barack Obama was elected, the owners of gun arsenals thought he would take away their weapons and rushed to gun dealers to buy more and more weapons and more and more ammunition. If they had any understanding of the legislative processes, they would know that presidents by themselves are unable to confiscate or diminish gun ownership. It would take Congress – and a massive consensus in the public – to pass restrictive legislation. Here we have a president who has favored more gun regulation for eight years and has made no progress in that direction. In fact, America citizens are more heavily armed today than
any time in history. That ought to tell us something about the power of the president. The presidential campaigns are giving us another clear manifestation of voter ignorance as supporters flock to Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders. Trump is winning supporters by telling them that he is going to build a wall on the Mexican border, throw out all of the illegal immigrants, abolish the Environmental Protection Agency, bring jobs back from China, make Social
Security optional, increased taxes on the wealthy, bomb oil fields in Iraq, and zero out corporate income taxes. If Donald Trump gets elected, he will do none of these things. Everything he talks about doing would be vetoed by one or both houses of Congress and/or fail to pass pass muster in the Supreme Court. Edicts don’t work in the United States. To take jobs back from China, he would have to fight all of the businesses that profit from sending jobs to China and all of the cus-
tomers who want cheaper merchandise. To build his wall along the border, he would need a majority in both houses of Congress to appropriate the money. And after fighting the Republican establishment for the presidency, he will find that the Republican Congress will be in no mood to build his wall or do anything else he proposes. All of these limitations apply to Bernie Sanders as well. Bernie is promising all sorts of bold changes, e.g. single payer insurance, free colleges, taxing the wealthy,
Grandson Alan came to live with his grandparents starting in 8th grade and attended school at Reva. Having grown up on the farm she had helped with farm chores, milking cows, gathering eggs, and washing the cream separator. She especially enjoyed helping Bert with the sheep. One year she raised 42 bum lambs and 300 baby chicks. In later years she often said How did I do that? She loved baling hay and doing custom work for some of the neighbors. She loved the outdoors, swimming, skating, and riding horseback. Lorraine liked to sew, embroider, crochet, knit, cook and bake. She was especially proud of her homemade bread which she shared with others. She made numerous quilts which she stitched by hand. Lorraine was a member of the Ralph Lutheran Church, the church choir and held many offices within the church. She was past president of the Sons of Norway, a Stanley products dealer for 10 years, a member of Perkins County Republican Women and TOPS club where she maintained her KOPS status for 16 years. Lorraine and Bert enjoyed playing cards, bowling, and dancing. Bert passed away December 4, 1995 and Lorraine remained on the farm for 11 years. She raised a big garden, yard and flowers. She took care of her cows for several years and kept up the fences. In 2006, she turned the place over to her son and grandson due to declining health. In 2006 she moved to Albuquerque to live with her son. In 2009 she returned to her apartment in Hettinger where she resided until she moved to Western Horizons assisted living in May of 2015. Lorraine passed away on Tuesday morning, March 1, 2016 at the West River Regional Medical Center in Hettinger. She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband Bert, 6 sisters in law; Gladys, Helen, Selma, Maybelle, Nan and Myrtle, 7 brothers in law; Wally, Einar, Willard, Stan, Lawrence, Neale, and Ray. She is survived by her son Francis Kaitfors of Prairie City, SD, grandson Alan (Pamela) Kaitfors of Prairie City, SD, granddaughter
Adrienne (Phil) Johnson of Minneapolis, MN, Great grandchildren, Breanna, Brandi, Elli, Lilliann, Victoria, Isabella, and Titus and numerous nieces and nephews. She loved the lord, her home, her family, her friends and especially her dogs, little Tiffany and Big Champ. Visitation will be from 1:00 to 6:00pm on Sunday at the Centennial Chapel of the Evanson-Jensen Funeral Home in Hettinger. Condolences may be sent to the family at www.evansonjensenfuneralhome.com
OBITUARIES CONNIE WALCH Connie Marlene Walch, age 64 of Hettinger, passed away suddenly on Wednesday, March 2, 2016 at the West River Regional Medical Center in Hettinger.
She was born on May 2, 1951 in Hettinger, ND to Howard B. and Eleanor M. (Erickson) Walch. She grew up on the farm south of Bucyrus along with her five siblings before the family moved to Hettinger. She attended Hettinger Public Schools and graduated in the Class of 1969. Connie had many jobs throughout her life, but the one that never derailed and quickly became her life-long passion was Blondie’s Catering. She established the business in the late 1980’s and catered for special events in the area including auctions, graduations, weddings and reunions. While many in town were sleeping or enjoying holiday meals, Connie made sure the ‘Guys’ at BNSF Railroad never left hungry. She cherished the relationships she developed with all of her clients and the guys on the railroad crews she cooked for over the years. Connie had a huge heart and a passion for serving and helping people. She volunteered many hours at the Western Horizons Care Center, was a foster parent and opened up her home to anybody who needed a place to stay. Connie was a genuine person and lived life with a free-spirited attitude and was often referred to by her friends as being “crazy fun” and this was represented in the unique Christmas presents she gave to her friends and family each year. She was always quick to smile and her laugh could be identified from across the room. Besides being warm-hearted she was also warm-blooded
and was frequently seen wearing shorts in the middle of winter. Her family and friends were important to her and she cherished the time she got to spend with everyone. She loved her nieces, nephews, and all their children as if they were her own. There are so many great memories and stories that will be cherished by all those who loved her and shared in her life. All Connie’s close friends, relatives and “The Guys” at the BNSF Railroad are considered honorary paul bearers. Surviving family members include her 2 brothers, 3 sister-in-laws and 1 brotherin-law, Wayne and Bonnie Walch, St. Louis, MO; Dennis and Linda Walch, Punta Gorda, FL; Arlene Walch, Hettinger, ND; Nick Schaff, Scranton, ND; and 10 nieces and nephews: Tammy and Greg Marx (St. Charles, MO), Tina Clayton (Troy, MO), Allen Schaff ( Johnstown, CO), Brad and Deborah Schaff (Stone Mountain, GA), Michael Walch (Tampa, FL), Jarrett and Tara Score (Navarre, FL), Davis and Johanna Score (Tuscan, AZ), Scott and Shiloh Walch (Williston, ND), Terry and Stacy Walch (Mandan, ND), Nyle and Molly Walch (Minneapolis, MN), and 22 Great Nieces and Nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents, her brother Russell, 2 sisters, Donna Schaff and Gloria Score, and sister-in-law Luella (Mattis) Walch and brother-in-law Vern Score. A memorial service will be held at 1:00 p.m., Saturday, March 19, 2016 at Hettinger Lutheran Church with Pastor Kathleen Dettmann, officiating.
LORRAINE KAITFORS Funeral services for Lorraine Kaitfors were held 1at 1:00 a.m. Monday, March 7, 2016 at Ralph Lutheran Church. Pastor Kathleen Dettmann and Pastor Mary Peterson will officiate with burial in the Ralph Lutheran Church Cemetery. Special music will be provided by Nola Horvey, organist and Chris Kaitfors, soloist. Serving as casketbearers are Jeff Kaitfors, Ray Kaitfors, Steve Verhulst, Dennis Nash, Rick Tysdal, and Wally Stephens. All of Lorraines
family and friends are considered honorary bearers. Lorraine Fern (Francis) Kaitfors was born on June 12, 1919 in Reeder, ND to Louis and Josephine (Zeigler) Francis. She grew up on the family farm 9 miles SE from Ralph, SD. She attended rural school 2 miles from home. Her father bought a Chevrolet touring car and her mother learned to drive. Her parents boarded the teacher for several years and her mother chauffeured them to school. The last 2 years Lorraine rode horseback. She graduated from Reeder High School in 1938. It was the dirty 30s so there was no money to go to college and there were no jobs so Lorraine remained at home for one year. Lorraine and Albert (Bert) Kaitfors were married on September 17, 1939 with a family wedding at her parents farm. In October they went to Sioux Falls, SD where Bert obtained a job at Morrells Packing Plant. Their son Francis was born at the Sioux Valley Hospital on September 19, 1940. In 1942 the rains came and in August of 1942 they moved back to her parents farm. In 1945 they built a new home and continued to farm with her parents. Lorraines father
passed away in 1961 and they took over the farm. Their son Francis graduated from Hettinger High School in 1959. Several years later he served in the armed forces in Germany for 3 years. In 1960, Claudia, Berts niece came to live with them for 3 years when her mother passed away. Later former Pastor Bob and Ruth Henricksons children, Bobby, Paul, David and Rebecca spent several summers at the farm. Rebecca started coming when she was 11 and continued coming every summer until she graduated from college.
raising the estate tax, regulating guns, getting rid of ISIS, reforming immigration, etc. etc. If elected, Bernie’s proposals will arrive in the Republican Congress dead in the water. They are unachievable in the present political climate. Trump and Sanders supporters have one thing in common. Neither group has a clear understanding about getting change in the American status quo political system. Nothing is simple or easy. To believe otherwise is ignorance.

Nighthawk basketball teams both down Harding County By SHELDON CHRISTENSON of that, their 6’4” center Mason For the Pioneer Teigen left the game late in the first quarter with three fouls and would not return until the 2nd half. The Nighthawks built a 13-point lead at the end of the first half which was highlighted by a buzzer-beating long range 3-point shot by Haden Sadowsky, which made the score 38-25. With the return of Teigen in the second half, better shooting and rebounding, they outscored Hettinger/Scranton 37-
26 but the Ranchers fell just short by two points. They had a chance to tie the game with less than a minute to go but, Sam Kludt blocked a close in shot by Teigen which more than likely saved the game from being tied. The Ranchers got the ball back with 10 seconds left but could not get off a good shot. Kludt was having a problem finding his shooting touch but his blocked shot was definitely one of the key moments for the
Nighthawks. Sadowsky scored 34 for HS which included five 3-pointers and Brandon Pierce added 21. I had Clayton Koch leading Harding Co. with 23 points.

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD
Trump wins N.D. online straw poll Rep. Kevin Cramer, RN.D., announced Donald Trump won his North Dakota Republican Online Presidential Straw Poll this week. About 4,740 North Dakotans participated in the poll. Trump received 37.66 percent of the votes cast. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz finished second with 25.74 percent, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio is third with 17.26 percent, Dr. Ben Carson came in fourth at 11.62 percent and Ohio Governor John Kasich finished fifth with 3.23 percent of the vote. The results are similar to those in other states and national polling. Cramer organized the online poll after state party officials determined there wasn’t enough time to organize a caucus, as has been the tradition in recent election years. “The complexity of the rules and the short timeline imposed on state parties made it difficult for the North Dakota GOP to conduct the traditional caucus in a way that would ensure integrity, so I thought I’d have some fun and conduct my own straw poll,” Cramer said in a statement. “Never in my career has a party preference process been this exciting and I wanted North Dakota Republicans to have an opportunity to weigh in with their votes.” Voting in the straw poll began on Feb. 2 and concluded on March 7. The poll is not sanctioned by the National or State Republican Parties and is not binding on delegates, but Cramer says it serves as an informative tool

for North Dakota’s delegates to the Republican National Committee. “My initial intent was to close polling on Super Tuesday, but the dynamism of the race led me to extend the voting another week,” Cramer said. “I had hoped to attract 1000 participants but am not surprised many more people cast votes. It speaks to the excitement and opportunity for growing Republican activism in this cycle.” Cramer concluded by saying, “It is clear to me the Trump candidacy is a movement, and I don’t share the panic of many in my party’s leadership. Elections are about voters more than they are about political parties. It is time for Republican leaders to help Donald Trump be a successful candidate and then help him be a successful President.” A complete breakdown of the voting is below: Candidate (Votes - Percentage) Trump (1785 - 37.66%) Cruz (1220 - 25.74%) Rubio (818 - 17.26%) Carson (551 - 11.62%) Kasich (153 - 3.23%) Paul (91 - 1.92%) Bush (45 - 0.95%) Fiorina (29 - 0.61%) Christie (22 - 0.46%) Huckabee (15 - 0.32%) Santorum (11 - 0.23%)

We had our third meeting on Monday, December 21, and it was our most productive one so far. We are working hard to develop some State Assessment recommendations for DPI. It has been an interesting task force to serve on. Parent-Teacher Conferences: Our second Parent-Teacher-Student conferences will be Thursday, February 4, from 3:30-8:30. NDAESP Mid-Winter: I will be attending the NDAESP Mid-Winter conference in Bismarck, Thursday, February 4, and Friday, February 5, so I will not be in the building for Parent-Teacher conferences on Thursday, February 4. SECONDARY PRINCIPAL REPORT: PowerSchool: Carla and I attended PowerSchool meeting to set up for pre-registration, Mr. Seamands and I will begin pre-registration the last week in January. Student Teacher: Ty Baumeister is currently student teaching with Dave Erickson and Randy Burwick as supervising teachers, he will be here for most of the semester. Student of the Month: We will be starting a student of the month, a student from grades 7-12 will be selected each month based on pillars found in the handbook. MDU will sponsor the t-shirts. We are working with Darin Holzer from MDU on the project and Graphic Attic on the project. MDU has committed to sponsoring for two years. Teachers and staff will nominate students. ACTIVITIES DIRECTOR REPORT: Athletics Boys Basketball: Going well. Took 1st at the Mandan Holiday Tournament. Should get a bye into the regional tournament. Girls Basketball: Going well. Coach Pierce is doing a fine job with the girls once again. Wrestling: Having a great season. Seven top-rated wrestlers on the state are on our squad. We do have two #1 wrestlers in the State. Activities Speech: Up and running. I don’t know exact numbers yet. Transportation Two new buses are running well. All diesel buses now run #1 fuel in them. Over Christmas break I swept them out and Armor-Alled the dashes and plastic. EDUCATION IMPROVEMENT REPORT: The Data Team has completed the data document reports those have been given to Mr. Sebastian for the Web Page. The Writing Committee met to discuss how the Writing program went the first semester. In general everyone was pleased. Classroom teachers report that when they have attended grade level meetings with the RESP and reported on this other schools are impressed. The Committee discussed the rubric because students are having numerous grammar/spelling errors etc. However, we are not convinced that we want to “lower the bar.” Rather we felt that students should be graded as the rubric states. We are finding there is a large number of students who do not make changes from their rough draft to final draft this is across all grades. We fell that by keeping our grading tough this issue should correct itself. Classroom teachers that have been conducting NWEA tests report that these tests are heavy on writing so it is hoped that our hard work is reflected in the scores. The library will be purchasing zipdrives for students to purchase so students can easily bring their work back and forth for these writing projects. Zip drives will be on all classroom supply lists next year grades 3-12. The Education Improvement Team met and discussed the following. NWEA reports, since we are now using the online version of NWEA we will have quick access to reports. The team is going to practice locating the information and data and then provide training to other staff. NWEA data will be discussed with each child this will be done by either the classroom teacher K-6 or the academic adviser. Classroom teachers will also be looking at this data to make curriculum and instructional changes as needed. The NWEA appears to be a good measure of how well students will do on the Smarter Balanced Assessment.

The HAWK award. Currently very few staff members participate in the nomination of others for the HAWK award we are going to try to get participation. We hope that we can continue this program and perhaps come up with other things to help foster good morale and positive attitudes. STUDENT COUNCIL REPORT: Student Council had their January meeting Thursday Jan 14, 2016. Discussion took place about the Hats for Backpacks Program. To date student council has raised $334.00. 7 student council members have volunteered to assist with the Mobile Foodbank that is coming to Hettinger on Jan 26. Student Council is truly committed to providing service as needed in our community. Student mentoring. Although no students have signed up for mentoring student council, Mr. Moser and Mrs. Kristy are committed to getting this program off the ground. Information was placed in Hi-Lites as well as read on the announcements. Advisers have been also told to suggest this for students they visit with that may need extra help.

SPORTS GAME AND FISH NEWS Elk, Moose, Bighorn Sheep Apps Available
North Dakota’s elk, moose and bighorn sheep applications are available online at the State Game and Fish Department’s website, gf.nd.gov. Paper applications are scheduled to arrive at license vendors the week of March 7. The deadline for applying is March 23. A total of 338 elk licenses are available to hunters this fall, an increase of 37 from last year. Unit E2 has an additional 10 anyelk licenses, and unit E3 has an increase of 10 anyelk and 15 antlerless elk licenses. In addition, one elk license is allocated to Annie’s House at Bottineau Winter Park and one to the Outdoor Adventure Foundation. Sioux County, previously part of Unit E5, is closed to elk hunting in 2016. A total of 202 moose licenses are available in
2016, an increase of 70 from last year. Most of the increase is antlerless licenses in Units M9 and M10, due to an increasing moose population in these units. In addition, one moose license is authorized to the Outdoor Adventure Foundation. Unit M6 is expanded to address landowner depredation issues. Hunting units M1C and M4 will remain closed due to a continued downward trend in moose numbers in the northeastern part of the state. A bighorn sheep hunting season is tentatively
BASKETBALL | FROM PAGE 1
scheduled to open in 2016, unless there is a recurrence of bacterial pneumonia, which closed the season in 2015. The status of the bighorn sheep season will be determined Sept. 1, after summer population surveys are completed. Applicants will still apply for a license at the same time as moose and elk, but not for a specific unit. Once total licenses are determined for each unit in late summer, the bighorn lottery will then be held and successful applicants will be contacted to select a hunting unit. Because the bighorn sheep application fee is not refundable as per state law, if a bighorn season is not held, applicants would not receive a refund. Elk, moose and bighorn sheep lottery licenses are issued as once-in-alifetime licenses in North Dakota. Hunters who have received a license through the lottery in the past are not eligible to apply for that species again.

Sam Kludt goes up for a rebound against the New England Tigers. (Photo by Rachel Bock/The Record) the deficit, and regained the lead three minutes into the fourth quarter. Hettinger/ Scranton’s Isaiah Kludt and New England’s Bender traded baskets before another key Maychrzak 3-pointer that gave the Night Hawks the lead yet again. It would be the last time they were ahead. New England sophomore center Cody Holt scored on a layup, tying the game at 57. New England senior guard Hunter Wolf scored one basket all game, it was a 3-pointer that gave the Tigers the
lead, for good this time. With just under 30 second left, and the Hettinger/ Scranton deficit up to seven points, the Night Hawks couldn’t do much but start fouling, sealing the deal for the Tigers. Night Hawk shooting went cold, and the Tigers outscored them 51-36 in the second half. The Night Hawks shot only 38.6 percent from the field all game. New England shot 55 percent. Bender led his team with a game-high 37 points, Holt
followed with 22. Holt grabbed a game-high 14 rebounds to complete the double-double. Sophomore Denit Sorenson was second on the team with six rebounds. Leading the way for the Night Hawks was Sadowsky with 32 points. Isaiah Kludt followed with 12 points, with Sam Kludt putting up 11. Leading rebounder for Hettinger/Scranton was Sadowsky with six. Nevan Weaver and Sam Kludt each grabbed five.

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD
Eye on southwest ND sports North Dakota Sports By SHELDON CHRISTENSON
Surprise, surprise, another parochial school won the state Class B girls basketball championship. Minot Ryan won the last three championships with last year being a win over Shiloh. Trinity finished in seventh place this year. When is the state going to realize that there needs to be three classes in basketball. Smaller public schools cannot compete with parochial schools on a year to year basis. Large schools in Class A, larger Class B schools, which includes parochial schools, in Class B and the remainder in Class C. Shiloh has not been around that long but this was their fifth appearance in the girls Class B tournament. South Dakota has no problem with three divisions. LOOKING BACK: Struggling can often lead to success in athletics. (Excerpts taken from the June 1, 2011 Dickinson Press, Dustin Monke) “You’ve always got to have failure before you have success,”
Hettinger head baseball coach Joe Perkins said. “You learn from it that way. You lose enough, you get sick of it.” It didn’t take Perkins’ Black Devils long to get tired of losing. In Hettinger’s third year of having a high school baseball program, and only its second season sanctioned by a North Dakota High School Activities Association, the team is in its first Class B state tournament, according to the article. The article also said “A few years ago, the only June baseball boys from Hettinger played was the American Legion variety. After all, no one expected winning to come this quickly. Not the players, and especially not Perkins. The first season, the Black Devils played a club schedule and traveled hundreds of miles for nearly every game. “Not a lot of people wanted to come play us, so we went up there and played them,” Perkins said. Last season, the Black Devils finished 5-15. This spring, they have a 10-7 overall record but were 7-1 in region games and 3-0 in the region tournament. All six of their losses came with junior varsity players on the field and many of their starters in the dugout, according to the article. The article also said that Perkins remembers harping on his team last season, trying to get his points across and hoping to make play-
ers understand that, yes, there’s a method to his madness. There hasn’t been much of that this season, he said. “When I first started, I used to chew a lot. I was kind of hard on these guys,” Perkins said. “I don’t think once last week in regionals, even when we were down a little bit, I didn’t say anything. They proved to me that they can get the job done without me saying anything. That’s huge.” It doesn’t hurt to have some boys who can play the game, either. Senior leadoff hitter and shortstop Nate Pierce is batting .526 and leads the team in RBI, runs and stolen bases. He plans to play for the University of Mary next season. Pitchers Ben Laufer, Chad Mosbrucker and Gavin Schweitzer are a combined 10-1 this season, throwing in all of the team’s region games. Senior Drew Kugel bats .405 and is second on the team in RBIs. Junior second baseman McCahen Schweitzer bats .428 with one error in the field. Mosbrucker and Laufer, both juniors, can also hit. They have batting averages of .468 and .371, respectively, and Laufer has the team’s only home run. The Black Devils’ players come from Hettinger, Scranton, MottRegent and Lemmon, S.D. Scranton brings a busload of players, driven by assistant coach Jeremy Dietchman. Two players from Mott drive about 45 minutes

For the next several weeks, I will be looking back at the roster, examining the positions to find weaknesses as well as strengths. With the offense completed, it’s time to turn our sights to the defensive side of the ball. Last season, the Vikings defense ranked fifth in points allowed per game (18.9) thanks in large part to Mike Zimmer and the mentality he brought to Minnesota. With blue chip players on every level of the defense, and another year of perfecting Zimmer’s scheme, the Vikings’ defense should become even better in 2016. Defensive Tackle Linval Joseph had one of the best seasons of any interior defensive lineman, finishing behind Aaron Donald and JJ Watt for third (out of 123) according to Pro Football Focus with a player grade of 94.4. Joseph is under contract through the 2018 NFL season, and is will have a cap number of $6.35 million this year. Sharrif Floyd had an average season according to PFF, ranking 50th with a player grade of 75.4. Floyd will be entering his fourth season, and has shown

one-way. Gavin Schweitzer, a senior all-region selection, commutes from Lemmon. When the team steps on the baseball field, however, they leave their football and basketball rivalries at the gate, as stated in the article. “It’s been a good time,” said Mosbrucker, a junior from Mott in his first year with the team. “We’re big rivals during basketball and football, but when we get down here, we all get along. Everything has been a blast so far. I couldn’t ask for anything else.” The article also stated that the area is getting behind the team, too. In Hettinger, just as they do for the football, basketball or wrestling teams, business have painted signs on windows supporting the team. The city even held a send-off rally for the Black Devils on Wednesday afternoon. Mirror Lake Park has long been considered one of the nicest baseball fields in southwest North Dakota. The lake, surrounded by buttes, and a row of the Evergreen trees just beyond the outfield fence make for a beautiful ballpark setting. The grain elevators to the north of the field give it a little extra small-town feel. Yet today, many teams -- especially those in the class above them -- would likely scoff at the Black Devils’ stomping grounds. The stands are well maintained, but older. There’s no quick-drying
Agrilime infield dirt, just a plainold, hard gravel-like surface that collects large puddles near first and second base. Perkins said a new field tarp, donated by the Hettinger American Legion post, will soon make that nuisance irrelevant. The grass infield is lush but only two years old, and the outfield grass is about half a foot too high, according to the written piece. The article also referenced Mosbrucker saying he and McCahen Schweitzer hope to convince more players who play only Legion baseball to ride with them to Hettinger next spring. “We’re going to try and get some more people coming down here next year,” Mosbrucker said. “Heck, we’re going to state. Maybe we can go to state again next year.” Pierce said he has noticed an upswing in the participation of little Leagueage players this spring, too. If those players continue playing, he believes the program will continue to build into something great. “If it keeps building, it’s going to be kind of a powerhouse,” Pierce said. “It keeps getting bigger and bigger. All the little kids in all the towns are pretty psyched about the team. “We’ve got everyone excited about baseball again.” Sports schedule for the coming week is as follows: - 17-19 Mar, Boys State B Basketball tourney at Minot

The Nighthawks built a 13-point lead at the end of the first half which was highlighted by a buzzer-beating long range 3-point shot by Haden Sadowsky, which made the score 38-25. With the return of Teigen in the second half, better shooting and rebounding, they outscored Hettinger/Scranton 37-

They had a chance to tie the game with less than a minute to go but, Sam Kludt blocked a close in shot by Teigen which more than likely saved the game from being tied. The Ranchers got the ball back with 10 seconds left but could not get off a good shot. Kludt was having a problem finding his shooting touch but his blocked shot was definitely one of the key moments for the

WRHS Foundation Fund Development Officer
The entire community, in fact everyone who has a driver’s license, is invited to attend the first-ever “Ride for the Rooms” Event at West River Health Services parking lot on Wednesday, March 16, any time from 10:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. Similar to the “Ride and Drive for the Kids” events at Hettinger School, RZ Motors has joined West River Health Services Foundation in a cross-promotion where anyone with a driver’s license can come to the WRHS Administrative Building (Old Woody, or the old Clinic), fill out a short application, get in a new RAM truck, and take a short test drive. If we can convince 150-200 people or more to participate, RZ Motors has agreed to donate $2,500 or more to our “One Room At a Time Together” Campaign to renovate 42 resident rooms at our Western Horizons Care Center. In addition, RAM trucks might make a donation to the care center, if we can
reach our goal. So we need the community to take a few minutes, maybe 10 or 15, to come join us for this worthwhile event. This idea was sparked by RZ Motors General Manager, Kortney Kinsfater. Once he heard that RAM trucks was looking for a first quarter promotion (they usually do most of their promotions during third quarter rodeo season), he contacted Ted Uecker at the WRHS Foundation. Of course, Uecker, trying to raise $145,500 for the renovations to Western Horizons Care Center, jumped at the opportunity to make this happen. After all, West River Health Services Foundation has made a commitment to all area communities to get more actively involved. On March 16, not only will there be a sensational “Ride for the Rooms” at West River, but RZ Motors will also be offering a full array of opportunities at their dealership in Hettinger. First off, they will be offering fivequart oil changes for $21.95 to anyone and any type of vehicle (usually they cost
1006 6th Ave W PO Box 237 Lemmon, SD 57638 fax 605.374.3772 donselectric@sdplains.com
around $43.00); secondly, RZ Motors will be offering one-day pricing; and lastly, free hotdogs and pop – all day at RZ’s! WOW! Sounds like once a person test drives a new RAM truck at West River, they better head down to RZ Motors for an oil change, check out their inventory, visit with their people and have a dog as well! So, save the date – March 16 – anytime between 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., come to West River Health Services. We’ll be there just off Highway 12, a little east of the Hettinger Clinic entrance. Why not come and test drive a RAM truck? You’ve always wanted to. Or maybe you have already, but want to drive it yourself! Plus, this keeps inching us closer to our fundraising goal of $145,500 to renovate our Western Horizons Care Center. Currently we are over a third of the way there, with over $56,000 raised! By coming to this “Ride for the Rooms,” you’ll help us get $2,500 closer to providing new flooring, new paint, new lighting, new furniture, new decorations, new sinks and maybe even new toilets for our residents. They certainly deserve a 5-star room – to go with our recent 5-star care designation by Nursing Home Compare. Special thanks to RZ Motors for sponsoring this terrific event and for always supporting the Foundation at West River Health Services. We are “Partners for the Future of the Western Dakotas.”
“RIDE for the ROOMS” for Western Horizons Care Center
Please Come To West River Health Services Administration Building Wednesday, March 16 Anytime from 10 am - 2 pm To Test drive a RAM Truck.
If we can get 150 people to test drive, RZ Motors will donate a room’s worth of funds ($2,500 or more) to Western Horizons Care Center’s “One Room At a Time Together” Campaign to renovate 42 resident rooms into the 21st Century.
