It's about time high school spring sports actually got going, it is April after all.

PUTTING FORTH another effort in the shot put, Hawk sophomore Cody Burk advanced on to the State B meet in the event last spring and will look to make a return visit there in the next few months.
Finally, after weeks of delays, cancellations and rescheduling; and wrestling with snow banks and lingering winter weather, the athletes of Sanders County will get a chance to show their stuff in actual competition beginning this week.
In high school sports, the belated track and field season will get going in a big way Saturday with two long-awaited meets in the Frenchtown Invitational, which has been moved to the facilities at Missoula Big Sky due to persistent snow in Frenchtown, and at the Eureka Invitational.
Thompson Falls and Hot Springs track and field teams will compete in Missoula and Plains and Noxon teams will give it a go in Eureka.
In softball, the Thompson Falls Lady Hawks will travel to Florence Saturday for a doubleheader with the two-time defending State B-C champion Falcons, while the Plains-Hot Springs Trotters will visit Anaconda for a pair of Western B-C games next Tuesday (April 9).
The prep golf teams from Thompson Falls and Plains are set to open the season at the Florence/Darby Invitational at Hamilton Thursday, April 11.
