WHITEFISH – They have nicknames like Elk Slayer, Raider and Hurricane. What they lack in formal boxing training they make up for in unyielding tenacity, youthful vigor and relentless haymakers.
For these high school scrappers, there are no bad punches, just missed punches.

WHITEFISH – Accustomed to the warm climate of coastal Chile, Renzo Caimi is beginning to understand the fickle, if not freezing, nature of high school tennis in Montana.
Caimi, a Chilean exchange student at Whitefish High School who was once ranked No. 3 nationally in junior tennis in his home country, has battled frigid temperatures this spring en route to an unblemished season record for the Bulldogs’ boys tennis team. Aside from the weather, he has rarely been challenged, consistently shutting out opponents.

Last week, Lady Griz forward Johanna Closson had one focus: moving past the first round of the NCAA basketball tournament. But, after losing to Vanderbilt in the final game of her college career, she’s free to begin planning for another “big dance” – her wedding party.
“We’ve just kind of been waiting until basketball was over to set a date or plan, so that I wouldn’t be as busy or distracted,” Closson said.

These are Flathead County’s high school all-star basketball teams, as chosen by the Beacon. We’ve ignored class distinctions and conference limitations to round up what we feel would be the best squads to match up against any other all-star teams in the state. There’s a lot of talent in this county – if such a county vs. county tournament were to ever be played, we like our chances.
