Ipswich Tribune -

Is this latest iteration of February weather rather surreal? We go from where we had experienced at least 12 straight days with a below zero low in Ipswich to Monday's near 60 above afternoon high. But that was only if you could actually see to read...

The Ipswich Tiger boys varsity outlasted Herreid/ Selby Area 41-40 in a non-conference Warner Classic basketball clash last Saturday in Warner. The opening half was sort of a tale of two quarters. Ipswich got off to a 15-0 lead and still led 15-2 at...

The Tiger boys tangled with Potter County last Thursday in Gettysburg. But the hosts lived up to their nickname, battling to a 61-37 victory. The first quarter had decided nothing, as each team would be able to procure 14 points. Taylor Thorson had...

Ipswich dominated Hitchcock-Tulare 56-39 in a varsity boys' non-conference high school basketball confrontation last Tuesday in Tulare. Ipswich strung together a double-figure 18-6 first-quarter lead, upped that to 37-16 at the half and 48-23 after...

How do you spell brr, this way, or even more r's depend how cold it really has been lately? So should we go brrrrrr or even more of the letter r to describe our recent bitterly cold spell. But it sounds like we might, just maybe get some relief in...

Points were sometimes a little hard to procur in a Warner Classic non-conference girls’ basketball game between Ipswich and Arlington last Saturday in Warner. But when it was all said and done, Arlington had defeated Ipswich 36-30. Arlington got of...

Several things to touch on so here goes! The weather? How about last Wednesday's power outage for several hours due to several days of that white stuff built up on power lines and trees. (A little is pretty, but a lot is pretty dangerous.) But as is...

Could the groundhog see his shadow? I doubt he could even see his nose in front of his face, seeing how foggy and frosty it has been lately. So we might have six more weeks of winter or we might not. Especially with climate change occurring on...

Ipswich featured a balanced scoring attack to knock off Northwestern's girls' high school basketball team 45-31 in a LRC showdown in Ipswich on Monday. Ipswich narrowly led 13-12 after a quarter and gradually lengthened its advantage, leading 24-19...

Ipswich topped Highmore-Harrold 67-57 in a non-conference boys' high school basket encounter last Saturday in Highmore. The Tigers had to rally from a 21-14 first-quarter deficit, but got the job done. They closed to within a point, 25-24 at...

February is right around the corner, believe it or not. And one of the first things we associate with February is a ground hog for obvious reasons. And I guess there will also be a Super Bowl in early February despite the coronavirus pandemic. Our...

The Tigers split hoops trip to James Valley Christian in Huron. Ipswich went 1-1 in a girls/boys basketball doubleheader versus JVC last Saturday. Boys first in this case because the Tigers boys indeed come away with a 48-34 win! But the Lady Tigers...

This is a historical week on several different levels for many reasons. Enuff said about that!...

Ipswich dominated a Lake Region Conference boys' basketball showdown vs. Northwestern last Tuesday, Jan. 5 in Mellette. The Tigers swept their respective host teams, starting with C-game and B-game wins followed by a hard-earned 45-31 varsity...

One of the annual events that hadn’t been postponed due to the virus was the South Dakota Snow Queen Festival. Phase one, the Junior Snow Queen, was crowned last Saturday in Aberdeen. That would be Miss Faulkton, Olivia Hadrick. Miss Congeniality...

In spite of all that's happened this year, the year has passed by rather quickly, especially in the newspaper world. Here for example we publish two fairly large editions during the holiday season and sometimes there is an early deadline for one or...

Ipswich outlasted Aberdeen Christian 33-31 in a boys' high school basketball showdown last Tuesday in Aberdeen. The defensive struggle was what often happens in a game between Lake Region Conference opponents and that was certainly the case that nigh...

Waubay/Summit escaped with a 50-48 home-court girls' varsity basketball win over Ipswich last Tuesday in Waubay. The non-conference loss was the first blemish on the Tigers' 2020-21 season record. But it was close, according to coach Brian Hogie....
