REDDING, Calif. –  The #20 Montana Western football team (5-3, 2-2 FC West) dismantled Simpson (0-8, 0-4 FC West) 65-0 Saturday afternoon in Redding. "It was awesome to see the guys respond positively to the adversity that hit them during travel and with the rainstorm in the first quarter of the game," head coach Ryan Nourse said. "It shows growth and strong competitive character. Guys really came to win this weekend, and it showed in the outcome." Western tallied 423 total yards (231 passing, 192 rushing), scored eight touchdowns, made three field goals, and earned 21 first downs in the contest while holding Simpson under 100 yards of total offense (94 yards). They scored on six-of-seven red zone chances and converted on four third down tries.

Aidan Lammers also had a strong showing on the ground with 67 yards and two touchdowns while Gavin Vetter tallied 14 rushing yards. Five different UMW receivers tallied over 20 yards each in the game. Eli Nourse caught a game-high 70 yards and one TD, including a long of 41 yards. Seth Shook once again made the most of his game time, with a 49-yard touchdown catch on his lone reception of the game. It marks his 11th receiving touchdown of the season. Colton Cornwell posted two receptions for 53 yards while Rico Figuroa (35 yards) and Jonathan Kirkley (23 yards) caught one pass each.                                                                                                                          Defensively, UMW forced five turnovers from Simpson and quickly shutdown any attempt to get the Red Hawk offense going. Tyler Schoen showed out with team bests in total tackles (eight) and solo takedowns (five) while also posting 2.0 TFLs (20 yards), 1.0 sacks (eight yards), a forced fumble and a fumble recovery. Tyler Walker led the game in tackles-for-loss with 2.5 for five yards as well as two fumble recoveries, including one of the Red Hawks' first play after the half, which he recovered in the endzone to put the Bulldogs up 41-0. Jace Fitzgerald (1.5), Devin Crow (1.0), Manuel Variz IV (1.0), Kale VanCampen (1.0), Mason Stodtmeister (1.0), Tristan Bloomquist (0.5), Keegan Muffich (0.5), Reece Stanish (0.5), and Brady Mounts (0.5) also earned takedowns behind the line of scrimmage.

Muffich ranked second on the team in both total tackles (seven) and solos (three) and snagged an interception. Canyon Sargent also registered one interception in the contest. Maclain Burckley was perfect on the night, making all eight PATs and draining all three field goal attempts, including an incredible 55-yarder, breaking his own stat for longest field goal in the Frontier this season and tying for third-longest in the NAIA in 2025.  Burckley also averaged 64.0 yards over five kickoffs and 31.7 yards over three punts in the game.  Edward Deward took on the bulk of kickoff duties for Western, totaling 407 yards (58.1 yards/kick) on seven attempts.  As a team, the Bulldogs had their vest return-game of the season, racking up 100 yards on three punt returns. Shook posted one return for 44 yards while Cornwell had two attempts for 56 yards and a long of 42. After a slower start to the game, in part due to the downpour in Redding, Western got on the board thanks to an eight-yard run from Humphrey to lead 7-0 after the first quarter. The Bulldog offense exploded in the second frame, posting 27 points after TDs from Lammers, Shook, and Nourse, and two field goals from Burckley. They led 34-0 at the half. Walker kept the fire going with a fumble recovery for a touchdown to start the third period, with Lammer and Humphrey adding to the onslaught with one more touchdown apiece to take the 55-0 lead into the fourth. In the final quarter Burckley sunk his final field goal and Jordan Jones earned the final touchdown on a quarterback keeper. LOOKING AHEAD Montana Western is back at Bulldog stadium for its final two games of the 2025 regular season, hosting Eastern Oregon (11/1) and Arizona Christian (11/8).

With nearly than $1.4 million already secured, the Foundation invites the community to help close the final gap and take advantage of the Walsh W Bar Ranch’s matching challenge.

GRANT, Mont. - The Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) is announcing and inviting the public to comment on a proposal that will improve approximately 13 miles of Secondary Highway 324 (S 324) southwest of Grant. The project begins just north of Lemhi Pass Road and extends south to the Montana/Idaho border.    Proposed work includes milling and overlaying the existing pavement, reconstructing gravel sections of the road into a 24-foot-wide paved surface, upgrading drainage features and culverts, and adding new guardrails and fencing. Additionally, snow fencing may be included at select locations. These improvements will enhance safety features, improve traffic operations for motorists, and extend the service life of the roadway.   At this time, a construction year has not been selected, and is dependent on project design completion and availability of funding.   Partnering with the community is an important part of properly planning for future projects. MDT welcomes the public to provide ideas and comments on the proposed project. Comments may be submitted online at mdt.mt.gov/contact/comment-form.aspx  or in writing to Montana Department of Transportation, Butte office, PO Box 3068, Butte, MT 59702-3068. Please note that comments are for project UPN 10204000.

Helena, Mont. –  Montana Western Men's Basketball tied for second in the 2025-26 Frontier Conference Men's Basketball Preseason Coaches' Poll, the league office announced Monday.  The Bulldogs were edged out by reigning conference champion Montana Tech, who landed the top spot in the poll, while sharing second place with Carroll. "It is always nice to see our program recognized, but we know the real work lies ahead and this poll doesn't guarantee us anything," Head Coach Patrick Jensen said. "We're focused on improvement and proving what this group can accomplish when the season begins."  The Bulldogs are coming off a 2024-25 campaign that saw them finish fourth in the Frontier with a 16-13 overall record (8-7 in conference play). Coach Jensen returns eight student-athletes from last year's team, including senior Kyle Gruhler , who led the team in rebounds (6.5) and ranked second in scoring (14.7) in 2024-25.   Also back for the Bulldogs are redshirt-seniors Jacob Ankeny , Jacksen Burckley , Carson Denning , and Kolter Merritt , senior Quincy Taylor , redshirt-sophomore Billy Carlson , and redshirt-freshman River Hurley . Ankeny and Burckley both appeared in all 29 games for UMW last season.

Helena, Mont. –  Montana Western Women's Basketball was tabbed 11th on the 2025-26 Frontier Conference Women's Basketball Preseason Coaches' Poll, the league office announced Monday. New conference member Dakota State landed in the top spot in the poll, with Carroll and Rocky Mountain sharing second place. "We know where we're starting, and that's okay," Head Coach Ryan Sullivan said. "For us right now it means the same for us to be ranked at the bottom as it would for us to be ranked towards the top. Just have a lot of unknowns with a first-year staff. Our players are buying into a new system, a new standard, and a new culture. We're not worried about where we're ranked right now, we're focused on who we're becoming. I believe in this group and the direction we're heading." The Bulldogs are looking to improve on the 2024-25 season, which saw them finish sixth in the Frontier with a 7-21 overall record (2-13 FC). First-year Head Coach Sullivan returned eight student-athletes from last year's squad, including seniors Isabella Lund and Keke Davis . Both Lund (9.9 ppg) and Davis (8.4 ppg) were in the top five scorers for UMW in 2024-25.

Another “No Kings” protest was held Saturday at Kiwanis Park in Dillon. Demonstrators gathered near Montana Street, waving a wide variety of signs — some expressing frustration through profanity, others showing support for immigrants, and many declaring concerns that the nation is “now ruled by a king.” Protesters voiced anger toward the Trump administration’s recent deployment of troops in several cities, stricter immigration enforcement, and what they described as an overreach of power through executive orders. The Dillon event was one of many organized across the country this weekend as part of the broader “No Kings” movement. Officers from the Dillon Police Department and the Beaverhead County Sheriff’s Office were present to monitor the gathering, ensuring it remained peaceful and assisting with traffic control around the park.
