The Malta Mustangs were young last year and weren't expected to make it to the Northern B Divisionals, let alone state.

"The varsity teams throughout their high school career have been...
The Saco-Whitewater Panthers are back and just as ferocious as ever. Last season their state title chase ended after two games in the State C Tournament. Those loses were to Belt in the semi-final round and Winnett-Grass Range in the opening elimination game.

We made it up in our minds that this season is a season that we are...

I believe these kids can run with anyone," Coach Wes Kill Eagle told the PCN. Trevor Banyai is the team's lone senior, was aggressive last year defensively and has a great...
The Malta M-ettes had a stellar year, that ended in the State B Championship game in Bozeman. Ultimately things did not go the way the team wanted, they lost a heartbreaking double overtime game to the Fairfield Eagles.

Practices for the Saco-Whitewater Lady Panthers kicked off November 20.
