By this late in the season most scouting reports have teams pegged. But the Beulah boys basketball squad still has a few tricks up their sleeves.
Half a dozen wrestlers get 6 more minutes
At Saturday’s start there were 11. But by 3 that afternoon, Beulah-Hazen was down to six wrestlers still alive. The veterans, and a few youngsters, showed promise as the Miners will send a six-pack of grapplers to the Class B State Wrestling Tournament in Fargo Thursday through Saturday.
Tournament time arrives Saturday
Jordon Mann doesn’t look like a man who has sat out for the last month.
Closing in on postseason action
It’s back to the basics for the Beulah-Hazen wrestlers this week. After spotty showing over the weekend at the East-West Tournament in New Salem, the Miners are preparing for their final dual in Hettinger Thursday. From there all the wrestling room talk will turn to the Region 4 Tournament in Beulah Feb. 13.
Rivalry win keeps Miners perfect in district
For two teams struggling to get back to .500 mark, last Friday’s rivalry game between Beulah and Hazen felt more like a championship atmosphere.
Beulah boys 2-1 after busy week

Any coach will tell you that runs are as fundamental to basketball as peach baskets. One thing Beulah’s coaching staff is struggling with is how to get the girls basketball team to sustain those runs for all four quarters.
4th quarter fumble opens 2010 with loss
The Beulah Miners gave up a 10-point fourth quarter lead, to be outscored on a 17-2 run in the final three minutes, to settle for a 61-57 loss to Center-Stanton Saturday.
Finding the start to match the finish
First minute or 25th minute, Shelby Schields comes to play. Dubbed the Beulah girls basketball team’s “workhorse” the senior forward is praised by first-year head coach Rick Miller as an unrelenting force on the court. Her offensive output against rival Hazen helped cut the Miners deficit in half the fourth quarter of the Dec. 22 game.
NS faced no luck at home
Over the course of the season, there are some games a team that hopes to contend simply needs to win. For the Hazen-Beulah North Stars, Friday’s game against Bottineau qualified.
