If nothing else, NR-S senior and Carrington wrestler Matthew Duchscherer has a great sense of timing. Duchscherer's night in the spotlight at the NR-S High School Gym on Tuesday, November 23, featured him attaining a personal milestone. The 132-pounder took his 100th career victory in a first-period pin over Oakes' Noah Wood.

The lure of that first ice fishing opportunity has lost some of its pull on me. Where in the past I’d be one of the first anglers sliding out onto the newly-formed ice, these days I’m more comfortable taking my time getting out there.
