Denfeld football coach Erik Lofald on the upcoming season: "The Hunters are excited for the 2023 season, and the opportunity to improve on last year's 3-6 season. 2022 turned out to be the most successful season for the Hunters since 2018, with big wins against Aitkin and Duluth East. The Hunters return a handful of explosive players, and a plethora of varsity depth from a year ago, including seniors QB Mace Brooks, OL/DL Ben Bandy and RB Dashawn Moore, and juniors WR Taye Manns, LB Cole Abernethy and DL Rajon Gamble."

Howie: Essentia’s tower is the beating heart of a rebuilding downtown

The Benedictine Sisters weren’t chasing miracles — they were building them. Standing on Superior Street at sunrise and looking east toward that glass tower, you can still hear their rhythm beneath the city’s heartbeat. The heart of downtown is beating again. And it carries a Benedictine rhythm.
