The events were a harmonic-convergence of diamond-sports’ premier showcases in North Dakota and featured hundreds of snapshots, videos and images that fans will want to remember forever.

The hometown Dickinson Midgets pulled off their win after going hitless through the first four innings, breaking the game wide open in the fifth frame on 4 runs — which included a 2-run moon-shot from senior righthander Ava Jahner — and 4 more in the sixth inning to hold off the Demons down the stretch.

Post-game there also were some fun moments as the fans were able to embrace the team and interact with the winning Midgets, while the team celebrated their second-straight triumph over Class A. Head coach Amanda Mickey received an ice-bath and Jahner — who threw a complete-game gem with 4 strikeouts, 9 hits, and zero walks — received her award for North Dakota Class A Senior Athlete of the Year after the championship ended with DHS quadrupling Bismarck High’s production on the day.

Jahner will now head to Dickinson State University to play volleyball and softball for the Blue Hawks, and the other players on the team are sure to be participating in the coming Dickinson Diamonds’ youth-softball programs in the Under-8, -10, and -12 divisions throughout the summer.

This is an encapsulation of the images and video memories for Dickinson High School players, coaches, fans and supporters to treasure, with the last word going to Coach Mickey. Well-done y’all.

Pups compete at annual F-M Kennel Club Dog Show – KVRR Local News

WEST FARGO, N.D. (KVRR) – The F-M Kennel Club’s annual All-Breed Dog Show drew in a great crowd at the Red River Valley Fairgrounds.

The annual dog show saw competitors come from all across the country to compete and show their dogs.

Lisa Braun, of the F-M Kennel Club, said that they were excited by the turnout this year, including having several dogs competing who had won awards at the Westminster Dog Show.

For her though, it’s just great to see the bonds between handlers and dogs while they’re competing.

Braun said, “It’s near and dear to my heart just because I’m an owner-handler myself. It’s great to see that competition and the camaraderie between the handlers when they’re in the ring helping each other out and making sure everyone’s had an opportunity to show their dogs to the best of their abilities. ”

If you didn’t get a chance to come see the dogs at the show this year the F-M Kennel Club also has agility competitions coming up in October.

Ellendale student advancing to National History Day national contest

BISMARCK — Students from around the state participated in the National History Day in North Dakota state contest April 19 at the North Dakota Heritage Center & State Museum in Bismarck. Twenty-eight students are now eligible to advance to the national contest at the University of Maryland June 9-13. Nine alternates were also selected to take the place of any finalists unable to attend the national contest. Students in grades 6-12 from public, private, and home schools participated with exhibits, papers, performances, websites, and documentaries on historical subjects featuring this year’s topic, “Turning Points in History.”

Winning top honors in the Senior Individual Exhibit was Mya Glynn, Ellendale High School, for “Hunger’s Turning Point: The Minnesota Starvation Experiment.”

Each year more than half a million students, encouraged by thousands of teachers nationwide, create a National History Day project. The program helps meet several state educational standards, furthering the aim of interdisciplinary and hands-on education, and promoting an appreciation for history from local to international. National History Day also provides educational services to students and teachers, including curricular materials, web resources, and annual teacher workshops and training institutes.

National History Day in North Dakota is hosted by the State Historical Society of North Dakota. For more information, visit
