Beulah Beacon Sports
The tale of two Trevors
There was plenty for the Beulah Miners to be happy about in Friday night’s 35-6 win over Bottineau. Not committing six turnovers as they did in the previous week’s 30-14 loss to St. Mary’s, for instance.
Rain, turnovers contribute to Beulah’s loss
Mother Nature must not be a Miner fan. Immediately following Friday night’s coin flip, the heavens broke. All but approximately three minutes of the West Region football game between Beulah and St. Mary’s was played in a downpour at the Bismarck Community Bowl. The Saints turned an otherwise ugly game into a 30-14 victory as they stay undefeated in the conference.
Firebirds run over Beulah
Kole Jenson averaged 304 yards rushing on 43 carries in the first two games of the 2010 high school football season. After 48 minutes at Riverside Park last Friday the Devils Lake senior padded those totals with 24 carries for 161 yards and three touchdowns.
Miners come up just short
Beulah is making comebacks a habit. For the second consecutive week, the Miners rallied late in the fourth quarter to push the game into overtime.
Rudolph’s right touch
On both sides of the ball 23 seniors played in Friday’s Coal Bowl XXXI, but it was the foot of AJ Rudolph that made all the difference.
Coal Bowl match-ups unique to 31st year
Come Friday night and Mercer County will be split down the middle for Coal Bowl XXXI. The annual grudge football game between Hazen and Beulah may be more than 30 years old but that doesn’t stop players on both sides from treating the day as if it were a state title game.
Fettig developing some brighter memories of Beulah volleyball
Courtney Fettig doesn’t have the best memories of her days playing in the Beulah High School gym. The former Bismarck Century player doesn’t cringe at the results of those prep games but by how Class A beat down a talented program. This time around the new assistant coach is happy to be a part of Beulah’s volleyball coaching staff that has turned the program around in Class B.
Keeping the horseshoe spirit alive
For a select few Mercer County residence, Thursday nights means horseshoes. The Spring Creek Horseshoe Club has been running more than a quarter of a century and club coordinator Linda Flemmer doesn’t foresee it slowing down anytime soon.
Beulah says goodbye to joint HS baseball
The issue has formally been discussed for little over a month but the idea of eventually dissolving the cooperative agreement between Hazen and Beulah public schools concerning spring baseball started even as the agreement was being signed.
A matter of inches …
A coach can’t ask much more out of a pitcher than to throw strikes, limit walks and make the opposition earn runs.
