Deer River Centennial game is a thriller
DEER RIVER — The Deer River Warriors rewarded a big home crowd with a thrilling victory over Crosby/Ironton 30-24 to celebrate 100 years of Deer River football. Warriors’ QB Caiden Schjenken started the Centennial celebration off with a BANG, with a deep pass down the line to TE Nick Bakkedahl on the first play of the game. RB Tate Evans would take care of the rest, finishing off the opening drive with a touchdown. A slugfest would ensue from there between two blue-collar programs, and it was only fitting to find the Warriors on top of the Rangers 30-24. The celebration was big but short-lived as the 1-0 Warriors turn the page to South Ridge, who will arrive in Deer River next Friday, Sept. 6.

It wasn’t until this preseason that he started to look like a more traditional running back. As he was starting to turn a corner, though, Myles Gaskin ate his lunch.

Twins News: Latest Byron Buxton, Carlos Correa, Brooks Lee injury updates
It's been a bumpy summer for the Minnesota Twins, a team that finds itself equal distance away from making the playoffs and being on the outside looking in. The Twins are chasing both the Cleveland Guardians and Kansas City Royals for a division title, but have a 3.5 game lead on the Boston Red Sox for the final Wild Card spot.
