Rod's Christmas Blog
On this day of the year when the problems of the world seem to de-intensify, there is not much sports to report. Nothing locally actually. That changes on Tuesday with the Stanley County Wrestling, boys basketball and girls basketball teams all return to the court. And the Pierre Lady Gov gymnastics teams returns to action in Rapid City and the Capitals boys varsity hockey team begins a 3 day tournament in Hazen, North Dakota. We wish all of the teams the best of luck as they bring an end to the old year and look ahead to the new year ahead. Since I seem to be the only one who blogs anymore on this site, I would like to take this time for Brian, Darren and myself to wish all of you A MERRY CHRISTMAS.
