October brings the postseason for most fall sports Here we are, after our first full week in October. Heavy rain stopped harvest for a couple of days, but hopefully, by the time most people read these words, everything will be back in action if it hasn’t happened already. Beet harvest was going strong as well, and let’s hope this all continues to go with no breakdowns. Thankfully, we haven’t seen any snow yet, and it doesn’t look like we will, at least for the next 10 days, which is also great. The month of October has lots of fun sporting events coming, with playoff football, volleyball tournaments, and postseason cross country meets. Let’s tell you about all of them.

By Jake Kulland, Sports Editor For the second time in a week, the North Border Eagles played the Larimore Polar Bears in girls' volleyball, and also for the second time, the Eagles lost to the Polar Bears - this time by a sweep, 3-0. After losing at home to them 3-2 in Pembina on Sept. 23, North Border traveled to Larimore on Sept. 30.

The Langdon-Munich Cardinals are getting to the point of their season where they have some very competitive opponents. They hosted the New Rockford-Sheyenne Rockets on Sept. 25 then played at Park River-Fordville- Lankin on Sept. 30. The Lady Cards won by a 3-0 sweep over the Rockets in dominating fashion in set scores of 25-18, 25-11 and 25-16. They then got a 3-1 win at Park River, winning the first two sets 25-12 and 25-15, losing the third 26-24 but winning the fourth set 25-15.

“Concessions for Chet” raises 11,000 dollars for the Ottem family The communities of Langdon, Munich, Walhalla and Pembina all joined together to support a fundraiser for Langdon sixth grader Chet Ottem, who plays on the Langdon-Munich grade school football team. Chet recently had a cancer diagnosis and has been getting treatments done at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.

The Langdon-Munich Cardinals football team hosted the Thompson Tommies for the first time in several years when they met on Sept. 26. After a close game early, the Cards got going and blew out the Tommies, 34-6. With the win, the Cardinals are now 6-0 on the season and 4-0 in conference play. Langdon-Munich is at Carrington on Oct. 3 then they have a big showdown at also unbeaten and 6-0 Park River Area on Oct. 10. Their last regular season home game of the year will be on a Thursday, Oct. 16, versus Grafton. The Cards game with Thompson had a very similar start as when they played at Rugby the week before. Langdon-Munich got the ball first and marched down the field on a 14-play drive capped off by a pass from Jax Johnson to Eastyn Schaefer from 11 yards out to take a 7-0 lead. The Tommies followed that with a 14-play drive of their own that took over seven minutes off the clock to make the score 7-6 on a catch by Eli Gemmill.
