L-M set to host first round playoff game versus Oakes at 1:30pm on Oct. 26 The Langdon-Munich Cardinals football team needed a win at Grafton to clinch the Region 2A title for the second year in a row.

Our photographer, Larry Stokke, got down to Jamestown on Oct. 19 to get some shots of Langdon graduate and native Lexi Olson, who is remarkably already in her senior year in women's volleyball for the University of Jamestown. Lexi is starting in the front row again this year for the Jimmies, who are off to an 18-0 start to their season, including wins over Valley City State. Morgan Freije also plays as a junior for the Vikings. Olson has led her team in blocks numerous times already this season, as the Jimmies are looking to get back to the national tournament to compete for another national title, which they won in 2022. Best of luck to all of our area athletes competing in college athletics!
