The Lookout got its sideline signals crossed last week and reported the opening game was away on Sept. 1. It’s actually at home on Friday, Aug. 24 vs. Box Elder. 

A field of 78 of the nation’s leading junior golfers ages 12-19 are headed to Big Sky for an American Junior Golf Association event at the end of August.

“It has no mercy. It is steep. It is long. And it is everything that makes enduro racing fun. There is no shortage of awesome in store.”

That’s some of the knobby-tire hype flying around like trail gravel on social media and the web as we get closer to start time for Lone Peak’s Revenge.

Players were just starting to arrive for a night of co-ed softball as Big Sky Community Organization volunteer Dave Schwalbe gave the field a once-over before competition began. He didn’t have a game at 6 p.m., but was there anyway, ready to step up as umpire if he was needed. 

Online video highlights of the Capistrano Valley Christian Eagles offer a glimpse of what’s to come this season for Lone Peak High School football. The Big Horns are already blessed with returning quarterback Frankie Starz, who averaged three passing touchdowns per game last season.

Anyone familiar with the sport of golf knows there’s a significant amount of frustration involved in a day on the course. That was not the case on Monday, July 9 when 33 teams hit the greens for the annual Big Brothers Big Sisters of Gallatin County Celebrity Golf Tournament.

Like dirt bikes revving loudly and lined up at the start of a motocross race, an armada of kayakers grouped in a line, shoulder to shoulder for the start of the recent boater x event on the Gallatin River.
