The LSC meet was combined with the Duluth East Invitational, so times were included for results in...
Forget about glass ceilings, Lumberjack alumnus and professional women's hockey player Sadie Lundquist has reached the roof of the local hockey arena - and she's the first female to get there.

This week the 'Jacks rode a pair of strong second halves in victories over Esko and Moose Lake-Willow River.

"We played pretty well. It was a good win...

I know exactly where I was 20 years ago, pretty darn close to the day. I was standing on the ice in front of our family cabin at Birch Lake, Grand Marais, auger in hand. Jamie was there also; she was being a good sport about braving the cold and chasing some rainbow trout. Little did she know the plump trout below our feet were not my main target. I fired up the gas auger and pushed hard into its rotating blades. I quickly punched through eight inches as the auger broke through the underside of...
