Second-to-last deeper state bests

Montana high school track and field leaders, plus class leaders, compiled from daily newspapers through May 22 by Fritz Neighbor of the Missoulian. Times for races of 400 meters or less are in hundredths, where known; times for longer races are rounded up to the nearest tenth. Some are hand-timed, and marks could be wind-aided [...]

Deep track bests May 20

Here they are, the second from last lists. Montana high school track and field leaders, plus class leaders, compiled from daily newspapers through May 11 by Fritz Neighbor of the Missoulian.

Heading to Hillsboro

The Montana Grizzlies’ football schedule has been out a while, but here’s a wrinkle you may not have noticed: They’ll play Portland State at a different venue from PGE Park: Hillsboro Stadium. The 7,000-seat multi-purpose stadium has hosted the Vikings before, in 2000. They went 8-4 that year, including a 33-21 home loss to Montana. [...]

An FCS bump for Chase

Times for races of 400 meters or less are in hundredths, where known; times [...]

Looks like Gregorak is out at UNLV

This shouldn’t be a surprise: UNLV linebackers’ coach Ty Gregorak has been urged to resign by Rebels’ AD Jim Livengood. Here’s a column from Ed Graney of the Las Vegas Review-Journal on Gregorak’s legal and professional problems, in light of last week’s story out of Boulder. In Graney’s column this quote from Livengood stands out. [...]

Strange days in Boulder

Here’s the best story so far about former Griz linebacker coach Ty Gregorak, who is in a bit of trouble after a night out in Boulder, Colo. It’s cringe-worthy and a little hinky: Gregorak is accused of stealing items out of a bouncer’s car, yet as far as I can tell the car wasn’t broken [...]

Deep track bests for May 5

Happy Cinco de Mayo, everyone. Here’s the expanded state bests I compiled through May 4. The Midland Roundtable meet in Laurel set the 100-meter dash standings on their ears. Big tail wind, low times. But since Rial Cummings began this project years ago, it’s been our policy to take the marks as they are — [...]
