The vacant head wrestling coach position may be filled at the Glasgow School Board meeting on May 15. Trevor Newman is scheduled to be considered for hire for the position. Newman was recently hired for a teaching position within the district. Other considerations for Fall sports coaches is on the schedule as well. The meeting begins at 6 p.m. at the administration building....
The B-Team Glasgow Reds christened the season on Sunday in Sidney, splitting a pair of games with the Patriots. With a dozen new kids in legion this year, there was bound to be some bumps and bruises early, according to Head Coach Jack Sprague, such as losing command of the strike zone for the pitchers. Reds pitchers walked 11 batters in 13 innings of work split between the two contests. But there were many positives, as well. “We did a lot of things right, there’s a lot of things to get bet...
Finally playing in front of their town, friends and family, the Glasgow softball team put on a powerful display with an 18-15 win over Sidney on Tuesday. Hundreds came out to see their dominant Scottie girls take on the Lady Eagles after several previous cancellations put any chance of a home contest in doubt. So when the Scottie girls were finally able to play at Sullivan Field, they were thrilled. “They’ve been waiting for this all year,” said Head Coach Mark Falcon. “It’s good to have such...
Knowing when to lay up and when to go for the green may be the difference between a drive home and a trip to Bigfork in two weeks for the Scotties. Malta’s course is rife with hazards that force golfers to choose between laying up or shooting for the perfect shot and the low score. But if they don’t make it, snowmen, or worse, may be all too prevalent on a scorecard. Course management has been the Achilles heel of the Scottie golfers so far this season, including the past weekend in Harlem on...
With the track postseason fast approaching, Scottie coach John LaBonty wants his athletes to take a break. “Right now, we need to rest a little bit,” he said. “We’re a little beat up.” The Scotties’ season started slowly with cancellations and relocated/rescheduled meets constantly shifting their schedule. Recently, however, it’s been a steady stream of competition, including three meets in eight days, starting in Glendive on April 26-27 through the Top Ten on May 1 and then Wolf Point on Satu...
Hundreds of athletes, coaches, parents and fans traversed the Scottie track on Saturday in the slowest lap in Top Ten history. But It was also one of the most important. The lap was honoring long-time Scottie track coach Bob Farrell, who died in April. Farrell was the originator of the Top Ten meet format in Glasgow, a format that has been duplicated throughout the state. This was the first meet without Farrell in attendance in some form. “The lap meant a lot,” said Head Coach John LaBonty. “I...
Last season, the Reds had 14 players on their roster. This year, with an influx of 16-year olds, the Reds have well over 20 players ready to go, enough to give the Reds enough players to roster an A-Team and a B-Team, with a few players on both rosters. American Legion rules allow only 18 players on a postseason roster, and that roster must be set on June 1, giving the Reds very little time to come to a conclusion. The first step towards completing that roster is on Sunday, as the B-team will...
On April 18, Scottie softball had not played a single game in conference. Eight days later, they had swept their seven counterparts in the Eastern B Division and earned the top seed in the divisional tournament. They started with a four-game sweep of Colstrip, Stillwater, Huntley Project and Shepherd on April 19 and 20, and then tore through Cut Bank, Shelby and Conrad at the Conrad Invitational for the final three conference games of the season. For good measure, the Scottie girls then dispatch...
A patented Tiger Woods fist pump finished Luke Gunderson’s day at the windy but sunny and warm Sunnyside Golf Course on Saturday. Standing over a long putt to finish off a team-low round, Gunderson knew that sinking the putt would help take the sting out of a bad start to his day, a four-putt on the first hole of his round. He only needed one putt this time to end his day with an 86, good enough for fourth overall and best on his team to lead the Scotties to the top team score. “We had a goo...
The Scottie girl tracksters are looking like a runaway favorite for divisionals. The Glasgow girls have won three meets in a row, their most recent a 128-point affair over nine other teams, including four Class A squads, in Glendive on Friday and Saturday. “Right now, our distance kids are doing really well and our hurdlers are doing really well,” said Head Coach John LaBonty. It was the distance runs and the hurdles that carried the Scottie girls to the top spot in Glendive, accumulating 70...
With the district tournament coming quickly, the Scotties are still searching for the right mixture. The Scotties were able to place fourth in Glendive on Friday and Saturday, beating out Class A’s Sidney and Hardin and seven other schools, but falling short of Glendive, Miles City and Culbertson. That’s the second-straight meet the Scotties have finished in the top four. And it’s also the second-straight meet that personal records fell in bunches – 16 PRs were broken by the Scotties in Glendiv...
