Legendary personal friend Andy Fenske, Hermantown High boys basketball coach, on the Hawks' summer training – "After graduating the group of seniors we had last year, we've been working on finding what that new look for us will be. We've had some young guys step into new roles they played last year, including seniors Blake Sundland and Alex Schott, juniors Landon Burg and Lance Janson, and sophomore Sawyer Senst. Those five guys saw some minutes throughout last season. We've also had a lot of great looks at some other players, including Ben and Blake Sundland, Corbin Petcoff and Nick Radsovich. When we've been playing games, we've gone about 12 players in total playing per game. That's due to finding new combinations and guys doing wonderful things for us. Since it's summertime, our rosters are always changing with family trips, other activities and jobs, which is great. We love having well-rounded athletes who have interests outside of hoops. This past week, we wrapped up our Thursday league play and a UMD Team Camp. We have one more chance at the end of the summer jamboree that Duluth East hosts at Ordean in about a week."

Howie: Bayfront still may be Duluth’s best idea

Bayfront remains one of the few places where the city still functions the way a healthy city is supposed to function: as a shared public space where people continue gathering together because they genuinely want to be there. Every summer, Duluth remembers that again.

Survival, for many old industrial American cities during the late twentieth century, became the central challenge itself. Doty helped Duluth survive long enough to rediscover confidence in itself again. That is not a minor civic legacy.

Howie: Minnesota’s political civil war weekend

The emotional political truth in Minnesota: The DFL fears permanently losing working-class and regional voters. Republicans fear nominating candidates who thrill activists but collapse in the suburbs. Both fears are real.
