It’s Homecoming Week for the Cardinals next week, Sept. 16-20.

Ultra gutsy late fake punt allows the Squirrels to run out the clock on the Cards There were some question marks this year with seven new starters for the Langdon-Munich Cardinals football team going into the 2024 high school football season. A few of those questions got answered with high marks, as the Cards won their first game of the 2024 season 32-6 at Oakes on Aug.

Langdon-Munich’s Brock Freer having a huge start in cross country We feel we should begin this week by giving a huge shout out to Langdon senior Brock Freer, who has gotten his senior cross country season off to an outstanding start. In his first three meets of the year, Brock has won first place honors in both Northwood and Carrington, while taking second in Hillsboro.

Cardinals, Eagles get off to great starts to football season; Cards first home game is Aug. 30 We are off and running for the fall sports season. There is good news - both Langdon-Munich and North Border have gotten off on the right foot. The Cardinals, with seven new starters in their lineup, played very well at Oakes for their first win, and the Eagles actually have played two games, beating both Four Winds and Midway-Minto. The Cards have their first home game on Aug. 30 when they play a very good Central Cass team. Langdon-Munich is ranked third in the state in Class A 11-man football, while the Squirrels are ranked fourth, which should add up to a very entertaining game.

The North Border Eagles 2024 high school football schedule had a strange quirk in it in that they played two games in the first week of the season - at Four Winds on Aug. 23 then at Midway-Minto on Aug. 27. They lost a non-conference game with Fargo Oak Grove that forced them to play the Mustangs in Midway on a Friday night. This did not seem to bother them, as they won with a big second half against the Indians 48-24 then dominated M-M, winning 54-14. North Border is now off until Sept. 6 when they host Nelson County for their first home game of the season in Pembina.

The North Border Eagles girls' volleyball program had a good year last season. They made it to the Region 2 Tournament and lost in the first round to Thompson, finishing with a record of 13-19. Lost from that team were five very good seniors: Keira Moore, Jenna Fraser, Megan Misson, Taelyn Dunnigan and Payton Reis.

The Langdon-Munich girls volleyball team was stunned for the second straight year by New Rockford-Sheyenne in the Region 4 championship last year in five sets. The Lady Cards lost three seniors to graduation from that team who had long and successful volleyball careers: All-Staters Cora Badding and Jalynn Swanson plus talented hitter Jaya Henderson. A lot of experience has been lost, but a lot of young, albeit unproven, talent returns.
