Selvig on Dewey King

I haven't ever heard of Dewey King. I wouldn't know him from anyone else going by my house when I am mowing the yard.

So when I started reading the Sun's story on Dewey King, who will be inducted into the ND Sports Hall of Fame on Saturday, basically it was like I was entering a brand new world.

King played in Cando and went on to UND. Then he started coaching. He was on the staff of Michigan State when the Spartans won the 1952 national championship and went on to coach on the east coast with stops at the University of Pennsyvania, Rutgers before heading west to San Jose State before setting in at Weaton, Ill.

It has been a great road for King, and he sure appears to be very deserving of HOF status.

Good stuff from Selvig here, stuff that shouldn't be missed. Click here to give it a read.

Sun on Schutt, Krause

While Brent Krause is getting used to his surroundings in Minnesota, Jason Schutt is learning a brand new language.

Schutt is playing baseball for the Quebec Capitales in the CAA (Canadian American Association), as the team's closer.

Krause, who played with the Baltimore Orioles' A or AA team last year (can't quite remember which...maybe both) is hitting .276 with 3 HRs and 15 RBI with the St. Paul Saints, one of the chief rivals of the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks.

Selvig Shoots, He Scores

I do love it when the Sun's Dave Selvig breaks out the column pen and tosses his opinion out there. He is one of the smartest people I've met in sports and in life and always has an interesting take on anything from the Brewers' lineup to the state of politics.

He, like me, was kind of surprised when Minot voted down paying for a domed athletic facility in the recent voting (inisert appropriate noun here). In all, it does seem just weird that greater Magic City didn't want to take the plunge and make a community asset. So be it, though. The people have spoken.
