Patriots win two of three games
at softball crossover
By James R. Johnson
Weather may have been chilly
for a high school softball crossover,
but the May-Port CG/HattonNorthwood Patriots were hot
enough at the plate to win two of
three games, and assured themselves of home field for the region
play-in game May 14.
Patriots 20 Grizzlies 10
In the first of two games Friday,
May 8, the Patriots scored in every
inning against the Pembina County
North Grizzlies, winning via the
mercy rule 20-10 in six innings.
After surrendering seven runs
in the first two innings, pitcher Erin
Freeland found her rhythm in the
circle and had solid play from her
defense.
At the plate, Ashley Erickson
and Leah Olson each scored four
runs. Freeland and Mallory Twete
came home three times each. Twete,
Ali Hutter and Mikenzie Elliott had
the big bats, each driving home
three runs.
Hutter singled home a run in
the Patriots’ four-run first inning,
while Twete caromed an RBI-double off of the third-base bag.
Twete sent home another run in
the second, then started a five-run
fourth with an RBI-triple. Emily
Vaagene knocked in the second
run on a fielder’s choice before
Elliott powered a two-run double
down the right-field line to break
an 8-8 tie. Hutter drove in Elliott
with a single. Hutter sent home the
game-ending run in the bottom of
the sixth with her third single of the
contest.
Pirates 12 Patriots 5
Hankinson-Fairmount hurler
Teri Loll no-hit the Patriots earlier this spring, but the chill and
Patriot hitters chased her after four
innings. Still, the Pirates had the
more profitable at-bats, winning
12-5.

Twete knocked in another for the
Patriots.

Patriots 14 Jaguars 6
The winner of Saturday morning’s game with the Northern Cass
Jaguars would have home field for
the region play-in game.
Temperatures hovered around
40 degrees, but the Patriots’ bats
were still warm, scoring eight runs
in the first inning and mounting a
12-2 lead after five innings on the
way to a 14-6 win.
Morgan Vaagene had three
hits and three RBIs. Hutter also
had three hits, including a double,
and two RBIs. Elliott had two hits
including a triple. Makenzie Bring
pitched all seven innings for the
victory.
Jaguars 12 HCV Burros 10
The Hillsboro-Central Valley
Burros had just one game scheduled at the crossover. It had no
bearing on playoff seedings, but
it allowed Hannah Buzick and
Ashley Trudel some innings on the
pitching rubber.

every inning of varsity for us this
season, so it’s good for us to know
we have some other pitchers who
come in and just throw strikes for
our defense to make plays if need
be,” Cory Erickson, HCV head
coach, told the Tribune.
The Jaguars won 12-10, but the
Burros’ Laura Spurgeon played a
steady game at third base, recording seven put-out assists in eight
fielding attempts.
“It took her a few games to get
comfortable at that spot,” Erickson said, “but a few bumps and
bruises later, she is doing great
there, especially only being a fresh-

64 points. The relay team of Nick
Rexine, Chantz Mehus, Rylee Groth
and Jake Nepstad won both the
800- and 1,600-meter races. Nepstad crossed the finish line first in
the 300-meter hurdles. Rexine was
third in the 400-meter dash and
Josh Moeller was third in the discus

Hillsboro-Central Valley’s Wyatt
Schultz won both the shot put and
discus.
Hatton-Northwood’s Nick Pedersen won the 110-meter hurdles
and was second in the 1,600-meter
run. Dean Ott was third in the shot

Thunder sweep three at Casselton,
then secure top seed in region
By James R. Johnson
The Hatton-Northwood Thunder have had little trouble putting
runners on base. It’s getting them
home that’s been frustrating.
“We do leave some baserunners on, but we’re grinding at the
plate,” Dennis Carpenter, Thunder
head coach, acknowledged. “We
get good contact with some pitches,
but they don’t find grass and you
hope eventually they’re going to
find some grass. It does get frustrating, but this group doesn’t
show it. They just think that the
next guy in the lineup in going to
pick it up.”
Through five innings May 12
against visiting May-Port CG, the
Thunder stranded 11 runners. Patriots’ starter Ian Chandler walked
six batters, but kept pitching out of
jams.
With the score tied 2-2 in the
bottom of the sixth, Chandler was
lifted for Chase Knudson. The
game hadn’t seen an infield error to
that point, when Knudson fanned
leadoff hitter Logan Vettleson.
However, the third strike got
away from MPCG catcher Brady
Nygaard, who threw high over
Aaron Evans’ glove at first base.
Vettleson dashed to second base
and scored when Jacob Pladson
lashed his third hit of the game to
break the tie.
The Patriots scored twice in the
second inning. Evans and Knudson started with base hits. One out
later, Aaron Ust hit into a fielder’s
choice to plate Evans. Knudson followed on an outfield error.

The May-Port CG high school
baseball team hosted HillsboroCentral Valley May 8. With Jacob
Klath going the distance on the
mound for the Patriots, the home
team took a lead early, gave it up
but came back to win.
Patriot bats were ready, as they
scored two runs in their first at-bat
in the bottom of the first inning.
Leadoff hitter Alec Chandler singled right off the bat, so to speak.
One out later, Brady Nygaard did
the same. Aaron Evans worked
a base-on-balls to load the sacks.
Then, third baseman Chase Knudson singled to score a run, and after
one more out, Connor Moore drove
in the second run.
The Burros came right back,
however, with three tallies in the
second inning. They led off with a
single, but Klath struck out the next
batter. With the third batter up, the
second one stole second base, and
he was driven in by a base hit. An
error on the next play by the Patriot
shortstop scored a run and moved
the other runners to first and third.
Another single brought the third
and go-ahead run across the plate,
so the Burros were quickly in the
lead 3-2.
The lead didn’t last long though.
The Pats tied the game 3-3 in the
third inning. With two out, HCV
Thunder leadoff hitter Jacob Pladson (9) came through in the
clutch with the game-winning RBI in the sixth inning against
May-Port CG. Pladson was 3x4 at the plate with a run scored.

knocked in Pladson with a basesloaded single and Lucas Mohn sent
Jace Pederson home on a fielder’s
choice.
Jake Bilden went the distance
on the mound, striking out seven,
walking two and yielding just five
hits. When Pederson ended the
game on a shortstop-to-first double
play, the Thunder had secured the
top seed in the Region 2 tournament.

short of stretching a double into a triple.
Riley Pederson pitcher issued backto-back walks to Knudson and
Klath. Moore was safe on a fielder’s
choice and an error at second base
brought Knudson safely across the
plate.
From that point on, Klath shut
the Burros down. After their threerun second inning Klath didn’t
allow a hit until the seventh inning
when the visitors started it off
with consecutive singles to make it
interesting.
Meanwhile, the Patriots had
put together the runs they needed
to win; two in the fourth and one
more in the fifth.

MPCG’s Chase Knudson (12) steals second base ahead of a
lunging tag by HCV’s Austin Dufner.
Chandler was hit by a pitch. Reese
Hanson hustled out a bunt single.
Eric Nygaard followed with a tworun double. Simple.
In the fifth, Knudson walked,
stole second with Klath at bat,
moved to third on a passed ball
with Moore at the plate, then
scored on Moore’s ground-out to
second. Not quite as simple ... ask
Knudson.
Again, the Burros had a goodlooking start to the seventh inning
with the consecutive singles. There
they sat, three runs down but with
runners on first and second and no
outs. No problem, Klath struck out
three in a row for the victory!
Bilden had two more hits,
scored three more runs and added
an RBI to his weekend total. Foss,
John Huus and Vettleson each had
two hits.
Later that afternoon, the Thunder made quick work of a very
young Medina-Pingree-Buchanan
team, 19-0 in three innings. Foss got
the win on the mound and went
4x4 at the plate with three RBIs. For
the tournament, Foss was 7x9 at the
plate.
Pederson supplied the power
with two home runs and six RBIs.
Mohn smacked a triple and drove
in two runs. Garrett Erickson, Maverick Hedlund and Connor Konschak also saw some good playing
time on Saturday. Erickson scored
five runs in the two games.
Klath finished with nine strikeouts, no walks and one hit batsman, a fine outing, except for the
guy he hit, who was still rubbing
his arm when the inning was over.
It was a fine outing overall for
the entire team. They made some
plays, ran the base paths well, had
several good at-bats, played decent
defense and kept focused when
they were a couple of runs behind
to come back strong. You know,
kind of a full-course baseball game,
plus a pleasant and needed win.
Coach Eric “Skip” Nygaard
used some of his younger kids in
the starting lineup. He had freshman Preston Edinger in left field.
Two eighth-graders, Reese Hanson
and Jackson Braaten, were in right
field and shortstop, respectively.
At the plate, Nygaard had two
hits, a single and a double, in four
at-bats with two RBIs. Knudson
walked twice and singled in a run.
Moore was 1x3 with an RBI, and
so was Alec Chandler. Hanson was
1x4.
The game with Hatton-Northwood scheduled in Hatton for May
11 was postponed because of the
lovely spring weather – not any
sunshine, not enough rain gear,
not enough wind breakers and no
snow wipers. The Patriots would
play the Thunder the next afternoon in Northwood.

Comets complete spring football
with scrimmage in Fargo
By dave dakken
Why Fargo? Well, Jerome
Berg Field was not in great condition due to moisture. It would
have been difficult to line it and
get it game-ready in general.
So the Mayville State University Comets held their annual
spring scrimmage May 9 at
Gate City Field on the campus
of North Dakota State University, a turf field.
Head coach John Haines had
more than 60 players involved
with spring football, which
began April 13. The team practiced four days a week at 5:50
a.m. Haines was happy with the
practices and the scrimmage.
“We started from page one
in April,” Haines began. “We
worked on all the basics, all the
fundamentals and reinstated every aspect of our game, defense,
offense, etc. The nice thing
about spring practice is that you
don’t have a game on Saturday
to prepare for.”
Haines continued, “This
group was very intense, very
competitive and enthusiastic
the whole spring, even more
competitive than last fall.”
As for the scrimmage, the
final evaluation, the format was
offense versus defense. There
wasn’t any type of system to determine a winner of loser. They
just played with a two-deep
roster on both sides of the ball.
Defensively, Coach Haines
was impressed with several
players. Nich Xalis, who was a
redshirt last fall, had 11.5 tackles, one for a loss, and two sacks
and an interception at safety/
linebacker. Skyler Berry did a

good job as a safety/linebacker
as well. Yes, Skyler is related to
baseball coach Scott Berry.
Defensive ends Bandon
Self and Marcus Cheaton were
mentioned by Haines. Cheaton
is a transfer from the University
of North Dakota and will be a
junior next fall. Haines stated,
“He (Cheaton) caused some
havoc, disrupted play all day.
Self had 5.5 tackles, 1.5 for a loss
and 1.5 sacks.
Dante Stevens and Jason
Smith played well at safety and
corner respectively.
As for the offense, Haines
added, “They started to execute
and played with pretty good
tempo, ran plays quickly. We
were right at about 100 plays,
split with 54 runs and 46 passes
and averaged over seven yards
per play. We totalled 775 yards.
It was pretty balanced, and the
offense scored eight times.”
The top four running backs
accounted for 278 yards rushing
on 34 carries. Martin Stafford
had eight carries for 60 yards
and a reception for 22 yards;
Jerill Jenkins was 12 for 108;
Desmond Earles had eight for
Comets win first game, drop
second in NAIA opening round
By dave dakken
Mayville State began play May
12 in the first round of the AvistaNAIA National Baseball Tournament in Bellevue, Neb.
The first round of the tournament takes place at nine different
sites across the nation. Five teams
play a double-elimination format
at each location; therefore, there are
45 teams involved. After each tournament is completed, nine teams
will remain. Those nine teams
will meet May 22-29 in Lewiston,
Idaho for the Avista-NAIA World
Series. The host team for the series
is Lewis-Clark State College and
they will be the tenth team in the
double-elimination world series.
The other eight locales are
Daytona Beach, Fla.; Grand
Rapids, Mich.; Kingsport, Tenn.;
Lawrenceville, Ga.; Montgomery,
Ala; Oklahoma City, Okla.; Santa
Clarita, Calif; and Shawnee, Okla.
Mayville, the No. 5 seed with a
39-20 record, began play in Bellevue against No. 4 seed Madonna
University of Michigan with a
37-15 ledger. The other teams
competing in Bellevue were first
seed Tabor, Kan. (49-9); two seed
Bellevue (44-13) and No. 3 seed
William Woods, Mo. (38-12).
The Comets defeated Madonna
6-1 but lost to Tabor 8-0.
Comets 6 Madonna University 1
A large part of the story was
Comet pitcher Tyler Leibert. He
won two games in the North Star
Athletic Association tournament,
including the championship contest
with Dickinson State that advanced
Mayville to the nationals. Comet
head coach Scott Berry called upon
Leibert to start the first game of the
nationals and the junior responded
beautifully with a full, nine-inning
victory!
Leibert threw 146 pitches. He
allowed just five hits, walked three,
struck out 11 and gave up one run.
He did hit four batters, and interestingly that is how Madonna got
their only run. In the fourth inning
Leibert hit the first batter. With the
bases loaded he hit another to force
in the Michigan team’s only score.
The Comet bats were working a
little better than their opponents’.
They had 12 hits and plated six
runs, scoring first with two runs in
the top of the fourth. Catcher Zach
Mihic led off with a walk. One out
later, four consecutive singles by
Christian Berry, John Cahill, Darin
Stanislawski and Mason Swegarden, the bottom of the order, gave
Mayville a lead they never relinquished. Stanislawski and Swegarden drove in the runs.
The next inning the Comets
garnered two more tallies with two
out. Johnny Pistulka had singled.
Following him, clean-up hitter
Aaron Miller belted a 2-0 pitch out
of the park.
Continuing the habit of scoring
runs in twos, Mayville finished the
game off with a pair in the seventh
inning. Mihic greeted a Madonna
relief pitcher with a base hit.
Mallonee did the same. Pistulka
laid down a sac bunt to move the
runners to second and third. Miller
was issued an intentional walk to
load the bases, but third baseman
Nate Williams drilled a double,
scoring two.
That was the game. The Comets didn’t run the bases too deftly
or they would have scored more,
but with Leibert in control when
he had to be, the offense gave him
enough support for a fine, fullgame victory!
With the victory Mayville next
faced No. 1-seed Tabor, who was
waiting in the wings with a bye.
Tabor 8 Comets 0
The Comet bats couldn’t do
much against Tabor pitching. They
had just five hits and their half of
the scoreboard showed a row of
nine zeroes. Nine Comet strikeouts and a couple of inning-ending
double plays dulled their chances
of scoring runs. In all, Tabor turned
five double-plays.
24 and had three catches for 31
yards; and Homer Reed gained
26 yards on six carries.
Together, quarterbacks Cory
Hill, a sophomore, and Jordan
Ares, a junior transfer from
Sacramento City Junior College,
were 25/46 in the air with five
touchdowns and two interceptions, totalling 469 yards.
Someone had to catch the
ball and “Stick,” Dontrel Horne,
had eight receptions for 168
yards and three TDs. Ricky
Smith caught five balls, had two
touchdowns and had a 22-yard
rushing TD. Six other receivers
had catches, so, Haines stated,
it was scattered around pretty
good.
Haines concluded, “I was
very pleased with everything.
We made progress and are happy because we feel like we have
a good recruiting class to fit in
with the guys we have. I feel we
have added more athleticism
and speed to our program with
our recruits.”
There are 75 recruits signed,
so when they open fall practice
Aug. 14, they anticipate having
125-130 players on the roster.
The majority of the recruits
are high school players with a
few “immediate need players,”
junior college transfers, thrown
in.
The Comets’ first game is
Sept. 5 at home with rival Valley City State. They have three
more home games to follow
in September. For one thing, it
may mean nice football weather
for Comet fans and tailgating.
Umm, you can smell those
brats now.
Haines concluded, “A lot of
players played and played hard.
We also had a good turnout (at
Gate City Field). Must have had
60-100 people show up. It was
pretty good so we might keep
the game there next year.”
Before that good luck next
fall!

Junior Tyler Leibert pitched the Mayville State Comets to a
6-1 NAIA opening-round victory, striking out 11 batters while
walking three and allowing five hits.
Mayville used four pitchers,
and starter Aaron Dick suffered
the loss. He allowed nine hits and
four earned runs. Actually, the
game didn’t get away that quickly.
Tabor scored two in the first and
not again until two more in the
sixth. So, 4-0 was sill reachable by
the Comets. Tabor added one run
in the seventh but three killers in
the ninth.
As mentioned, the Comet bats
were pretty quiet; of course, that’s
not pretty. Nobody had more than
one hit. Mallonee, Pistulka, Williams and Stanislawski were all
1x4. Berry went 1x3.
Therefore, Mayville is in the
comeback bracket. Bellevue beat
William Woods 3-2. Woods and
Madonna played the first game
Wednesday, May 13, and Mayville
played the winner of that match-up
at 6 p.m.
