Hawk football team has hard time at EP - photo slideshow

Losing three fumbles in the first 14 plays makes it tough for any football team.

When your team does that against Eden Prairie, it makes for a very long night.

EP turned the miscues into 10 points in taking a 31-0 halftime lead. The Eagles added a pair of second-half touchdowns to win 45-0


Hawk swimmers hang in there against Eastview

Eastview slightly overpowered Chaska 101.5-84.5 in the second Lake Conference girls swimming dual of the season on Thursday.

The Lightning piled up points by winning nine of the 12 events, but the Hawks hung in there with three first-place swims and second-place showings in the rest.

Hawk senior Sam Getty took first place in the 200 individual medley, with a time of 2:17.08. She also finished second in the 100 backstroke with a 1:04.86 race.


Sixty years of the Sox

The year was 1947 when three guys from Carver - Elmer Kraemer, Woody Swanson and Jim Pauly - found themselves watching with envy as their neighbors in Chaska took home the state amateur baseball tournament title.

At the time, Carver didn’t have a town team, but all of that was about to change.
