The NCAA men’s ice hockey Sioux Falls regional came to a close Saturday night as North Dakota claimed a 5-0 win over Quinnipiac to punch the program’s 23rd trip to the Frozen Four and first in a decade. keloland.com/sports/north-d…

Molly Joyce stepped up in the biggest moment of the season for South Dakota women’s basketball, pouring in 31 points to lift the Coyotes to a 65-56 win over Montana State in the Great 8 of the WNIT Sunday. keloland.com/sports/joyces-…

@traviskriens Let's make @ev_hendo shave his head again if the Twins win 80+ games.

The Minnesota Twins season starts today. They may not be very good. They traded a lot of mediocre guys away last summer. If you're a disgruntled fan, I ask you to not watch. If you're mad, then don't support the team. Also, I don't want you around when they turn this around. #MLB

Still plenty of hockey to be played in Sioux Falls.

Record setting today...much cooler tomorrow keloland.com/news/local-new…

Favorites went 16-0 yesterday. This year's first round had 13 of 32 games decided by 20+ points. High Point only true mid-major still alive, and its NIL is probably most of any team in 1-bid league. I hate to admit it, but due to NIL & transfer portal, Cinderellas may be dead.

Uzziah Buntyn, who averaged 12.1 points per game for South Dakota this season, is entering the transfer portal.

Pine Ridge senior Marvin Richard III scored a South Dakota single-game record 73 points to break the Class 'A' career scoring mark Tuesday night. keloland.com/sports/pine-ri…

Busy news day.

Stephen A. Smith to @CBSSunday airing Feb. 15: "I will confess to you, I'm giving strong consideration to being on that debate stage for 2027" and running for the Democratic nomination. "I've got this year coming up 2026, to think about it, to study, to know the issues."

The @SDCoyotesFB team is set to officially introduce new head coach Matt Vitzthum at 10:30! Watch here or on KELOLAND+ keloland.com/watch-live/

Final: USD 68, SDSU 67 Coyotes get a defensive stop after missing the front end of a 1-and-1. That snaps a 10-game skid in the series. Jordan Crawford with a USD-high 19. Joe Sayler led SDSU with 21.

Changes are coming to the USD football team as head coach Travis Johansen departs after one season and Matt Vitzthum takes over head coaching duties. keloland.com/sports/johanse…
