State Champs & Record Breakers: Spring Sports Glory in Northwest Montana

Daily Inter Lake

In this episode of Keeping Score, Daily Inter Lake reporter Josh Amick recaps all the highlights from Montana’s spring sports state tournaments: track & field, softball, baseball, and tennis. Hear how athletes from Flathead, Glacier, Whitefish, and Columbia Falls closed their seasons with championships, personal bests, and unforgettable performances. 

Flathead’s Gabe Hollensteiner shattered a state track record, Glacier's Olivia Warriner launched three home runs—including a walk-off grand slam—and Whitefish’s sprint sweep helped capture a girls’ team title. 

This summer, we followed the Brist family from their fifth-generation Montana farm to the bright lights of the Northwest Montana Fair. From early morning chores to the intensity of the show ring, their journey shows the hard work, tradition, and bittersweet goodbyes that come with raising livestock. Discover Season 4 of our Deep Dive podcast, From Farm to Fair — coming Sunday, September 21st!
