Page 8 Golden Valley News February 3, 2011 Bucs continue with more wins Golva News By Shirley Schulte This Thursday night parents of our seniors will be recognized before the tip-off of the Heart River game at Beach High School. Five years ago these same par- ents were invited to the opening of the basketball season meeting. The discussion at the end of the meeting was to immediately move up our eighth graders to play high school basketball. This meant skipping their junior high basketball season. It was explained that they would be better challenged and improve at a much faster rate, comparing a young third-grade math student who isn't challenged. That student will be better challenged and grow doing upper levels of work to meet their potential. We do these things with our academics and music so it only makes sense if they are not over-challenged to do the same in athletics. Those eighth graders are now seniors and will be recognized with their parents at the center-circle of the floor prior to the Heart River basketball game. There have been a lot of sacrifices along the way by both the players and their parents. It is never an easy road being a good parent, but our parents of these girls who will be recognized are very special and very supportive in our young ladies' lives. After the game with Heart River there will be tacos served at the school commons area. Parents and fans are invited. A few words from our Athletic Director Brandt Gaugler, coaches, players and senior managers will conclude the evening. This Saturday night, the Running Bucs will be heading east to face the Dickinson Trinity Titans at the Knights of Columbus Activity Center. The Titans are at the top of their district and will be major con- tenders in Region VII. There will be three games on Saturday (ABC). The "C" game will begin the evening of basketball at 4 p.m. Beach defeats Ray, 130-17 Last Saturday, Jan. 29, the Lady Bucs came in early for a shoot- around going thru some shooting drills to get fine-tuned for their game against Ray. The Bucs began with their tradi- tional diamond-one zone press for the first 5 minutes then sunk back into a half-court man defense for the rest of the game. From the very beginning to the end of the game, the Bues were hitting on all cylin- ders, scoring from just about every- where on the floor. Five people scored in double figures with Brittney Dietz paving the way with 33 for the home team. Scores per quarter: Ray 5, 10, 11, 17; Beach 38, 72, 104, 130. Beach scorers: Brittney Dietz, 33; Abby Weinreis, 19; Jill Rising, Round Ball Fever By Bob Waldal 18; LaCee Vollum, 17; Bailey Waldal, 10; Kelcee Dykins, 8; Hailee Farstveet, 7; Kiffin Howard, 5; Brooke Davidson, 5; Bobbi Jo Nielsen, 4; Cydni Stedman, 4. Saturday night was good and bad. Our girls played extremely well against a very unevenly matched Ray team. Two of their starters and leading scorers were unable to play because of injuries sustained in other games. Our girls hit shots from every spot on the floor and the kids that came off the bench played also at a very high level. That was the good, but the bad part was the lop-sided score. I think that the state needs to implement a "mercy rule" like that of Montana. When the margin of point-spread exceeds 40 points, the clock is left running to speed up the game's ending. Watching scores all over the state on a nightly basis, there are many scores that are so lop-sided. This is especially true in Class B girls with school enroll- ments dipping to all time lows. There has been a lot of talk about this "mercy rule," and I hope that the committee moves forward to implement it. Beach defeats Scranton, 72-32 On Jan. 27, the Running Bucs headed south to play a very young Scranton Miner team and defeated the Miners 72-32 for their second District 13 game of the year. Again, it was a very balanced attack with three people in double figures (Abby Weinreis, 15; Brittney Dietz, 14; and Jill Rising, 14) leading the way. Right behind them was LaCee Vollum, Kelcee Dykins and Brooke Davidson, each with eight points. Opening up the'game, Scranton's coach, Kelly Pierce, tried a different type of defense using a triangle and one defense with hopes of causing confusion and slowing down the Bucs. With that defense they put chasers on both Abby Weinreis and Brittney Dietz in hopes of taking away the Buccaneer's one-two punch. The philosophy sounded good, but Beach has more than a one-two punch in its arsenal. Jill Rising and LaCee Vollum went to work down in the post area and shreaded what was left over in the Miners' defense. Scores per quarter: Beach 16, 33, 58, 72; Scranton, 6, 17, 21,32. Beach scorers: Abby Weinreis, 15; Brittney Dietz, 14; Jill Rising, 14; Brooke Davidson, 8; Kelcee Dykins, 8; LaCee Vollum, 8; Bailey Waldal, 2; Cyndi Stedman, 2; Bobbi Jo Nielsen, 1. Manor News .y Lorna Holzwarth Sentinel Butte News By Jane Cook Lookmg Back GVN Feb. 9, 1961: Nelson finds hard hat useful Safety equipment, recently pur- chased by the Beach Volunteer Fire Department has already proven to be a wise purchase. The first time the equipment was used was at the recent Sartz fire, and volunteer fireman Ray Nelson, wearing one of the fire hel- mets or "hard hats," undoubtedly would have suffered some bruises or injury, had it not been for the helmet he was wearing. A pane of glass from a second floor window shattered on Nelson's head, when it fell out of its window casing. Another inci- dent also occurred at the same fire to the same fireman when a chunk of plaster about three feet in diam- eter fell on Nelson and jarred him quite a bit, but he was otherwise unharmed, thanks to his helmet. Nelson stated that the plaster hit him so hard that he is a couple of inches shorter. Explosion at motel A leak in an underground gas line that goes across a driveway at Scoreboard Put Your .M, oney Where Your" House T_S/ Ioael indepermt   our t.nesss are eaton'ninety your best vmke and our economy the Townley Motel on U. S. No. 10 in Wibaux, Mont., caused an explo- sion last Friday afternoon, at about 4:15 p.m., and did extensive dam- age to several units, but no one was injured. The owners of the motel discov- ered the leak, as they could smell gas, and had sent a call in to MDU at Beach for workmen to repair the line, and they had just arrived there the moment the explosion occurred. Two units in the newer section of the motel, which had been added on six years ago, were destroyed, and two other units suffered lesser damage. The force of the blast also dam- aged wiring at the nearby B and C Mobil Service Station, which is owned by Burton Carey.

Marie Nistler called to say they are keeping busy and enjoying the warm and sunny weather of Arizona. They miss everyone in North Dakota, but not the cold, snow and icy roads. Marie and Don are proud to announce that they became great-grandparents twice in the last month. On Christmas Day, Cade Mathew was born to Josh and Amanda (Maus) Heinemeyer, making Don and Patsy Maus grandparents, and Don and Marie great-grandparents for the first time. On Jan. 7, Noella Grace was born to Emanuel and Brenna Chasee. She is the first grandchild of Tom and Eileen Nistler of Upton, Wyo., and Don and Marie Nistler's second great- grandchild.

Kreil said there is little doubt pronghorn are in a vul- nerable state due to deep snow, and in some cases have limited move- ment because herds are prevented from moving to areas with less snow. While this winter so far has been tough on wildlife, Kreil said the next several weeks are critical. "Animals have been stressed for a couple months now, and they don't have the energy they had in early winter," Kreil said. "A mild February and March is much need- ed, and if we get a break we will see the benefits next fall. If not, then hunters will need to adjust their expectations in 2011 ." Saturday, Don and Rella Abernethy traveled to Minot to visit with friends, Ted and Bev Trinka. Ted had the misfortune of breaking his leg after a fall on some ice. Don and Rella remained with the Trinkas before returning home on Monday. On their way home, they stopped in Bismarck and had lunch with their daughter, LaDonna Fallgatter. Pete Novotny helped plow out the driveway at the Jim and Marj Wyckoff home on Monday. Sentinel Butte has seen a lot of truck traffic lately because of the amount of oil work that has been going on in the area. The trucks come into town for water, as well as using the new tanks situated on the hill just north of the city. Jim and Marj Wyckoff drove to Dickinson on Tuesday to visit with son and wife, Tom and Lynn Wyckoff, and daughter Kiitlynn. q Beach, 53, Killdeer, 54 Boys varsitybasketball, Jail. 29 Beach scores: 7, 23, 39, 53 Killdeer scores: 19, 29, 43, 54 Beach scorers: Danny Skoglund, 4; Trevor Sime, 1; Jake Hardy, 20; Brady Zachmann, 4; Lloyd Weinreis, 4; Landon Lechler, 20.
