Siblings Brooks and Kendall Aadland from Mitchell, South Dakota, crushed it at a junior golf tournament in Brandon this week. Brooks, competing in the boys' under-9 division, shot a solid 3-over 39, even nabbing a birdie on one hole to clinch the win. Meanwhile, Kendall posted a 51 in her division, showing the Aadland family’s got serious talent on the greens.

Editor’s Note: It’s always cool to see young athletes shine, especially siblings making waves together. This isn’t just a local sports win—it’s a glimpse at the next generation of golfers and a reminder of how grassroots competitions help kids build skills (and confidence). Plus, who doesn’t love a good underdog (or in this case, under-9) story?

The Mitchell 18U baseball team is heating up just in time for the holiday weekend, grabbing two solid wins against Marshall’s American Legion squad. They edged out a tight 2-1 victory in the first game, then dominated with a 5-0 shutout in the second. Carter McCormick was a standout with three hits in the opener, helping the team secure three wins in their last four games.

Editor’s Note: For local sports fans, this is a nice boost—Mitchell’s young players are building momentum ahead of a big tournament. Wins like these aren’t just about the scoreboard; they show the team’s grit and growing chemistry, which could pay off when it counts. Plus, it’s always fun to see hometown talent shine.
