Four Pipestone Area Schools’ boys basketball players received special accolades when awards were presented on Tuesday, March 18.
Overall, the Arrows finished 10-16 — eliminated in the opening round of the Class 3AA South subsection tournament by Redwood Valley, 65-45, on Friday, Feb. 28 in Redwood Falls.
Most Assists: Tagon Woelber

INFORMATION

“We had some good wins and some tough losses,” Slaba said. “We did a great job in conference, battling. This was a fun group to coach.”
This was a five-win decline from 2023-24, but that squad had Dakota State University player Rysley Borman, who tallied more than 1,000 points in his Arrow career.
“This is my favorite award,” Slaba said. “Max used his voice, but he was intentional with it.” 
That story also will reveal the plans of all six seniors who will be lost to graduation, including Aiden Hiniker and Landon Johnson.
Awards night, inside the PAS Commons, also was an ice cream social.
Quist was outstanding on the boards, with 238 caroms overall. He snagged 52 rebounds on the offensive glass, second only to Austin Musch’s 113. However, Landon finished ahead of Austin in overall boards (Musch had 214).
Players also voted on the “Energy Award,” which was given to senior 5-foot-11 guard Max Taubert.
3-Point Specialist: Makhi Winter
Tagon Woelber received three golden statues as the overall most valuable player, MVP offense and for recording the most assists this season.
Tagon connected on 44 percent of his field goals (.333 from past the 3-point arc) and .633 from the free-throw line. He was the lone Arrow with triple-digit season assists.
Offensive MVP: Tagon Woelber
Tuesday, March 18
Slaba noted Quist is now the Arrows’ all-time leading rebounder with 521, and that will be recognized on a new records placard which features both boys and girls all-time bests.
Landon Quist, a 6-foot-5 senior post who will play football at the next level, was tabbed “rebounding champion.”

Woelber, a 6-foot-2 guard, scored 408 points (16.3 average) with 113 rebounds, 104 assists and 26 steals.

Awards Night
“In the second half of the year, the last 10 games, Tagon averaged 19.5 points per game,” Slaba noted.
PAS head boys basketball Michael Slaba presented six major awards, three based on statistics and three more voted on by the team members themselves. The players’ choices all were unanimous, the coach reported.
Most Valuable Player: Tagon Woelber
Assistant coaches Tim Stotz and Cody Heidebink also celebrated the accomplishments of the “B” and “C” squads, respectively. 
Makhi Winter, soon to be a member of the University of Minnesota-Morris basketball team, earned the three-point specialist award.
Rebounding Champion: Landon Quist
Winter made 67 3-pointers during the 2023-24 season, leading the squad with .373 accuracy. He’s currently sixth all time in school history in 3-pointers made (104).
The season featured two three-game winning streaks, including a stretch of victories over Southwest Minnesota Christian (65-62), St. James Area (76-71) and Russell-Tyler-Ruthton (59-56) from Feb. 4-8.

LEWISBURG, Pa. – Bucknell senior Tyler Dunn was named the Patriot League Scholar Athlete of the Year as announced by the league office on Thursday. Dunn is joined by seniors Brady Karp and Ben Magovern with Academic All-Patriot League selections.

Dunn is the first Bison to be named Scholar Athlete of the Year since Tyler Wincig in 2019. Karp received an Academic All-PL selection for the second consecutive year, and this is Magovern’s first Academic All-PL honor.

Dunn, a four-year starter at first base, was named First Team All-Patriot League on Wednesday. On top of an incredible year, he carried an impressive 3.57 GPA.

He slashed .325/.492/.503, leading the team in all categories. He was second on the team with 41 hits and 10 doubles. He hit three home runs and had 30 RBIs.

Dunn drew a league-leading 41 walks to tie Bucknell’s single-season record. His .503 on-base percentage led the league and his .985 OPS ranked third. Among Division I programs, Dunn’s 41 walks ranked 45th, his 1.08 walks per game ranked sixth, and his on-base percentage ranked 39th.

Dunn was excellent at first base, sporting a .993 fielding percentage with only two errors. He finished his career with an impressive .992 fielding percentage.

Dunn finished his career with his name plastered on Bucknell’s career records. He ranks seventh in games played (178), seventh in games started (169), seventh in at-bats (626), 15th in hits (173), 13th in RBIs (112), second in walks (100), sixth in hit-by-pitches (25), 15th in doubles (33), and fourth in sacrifice flies (10).

Karp produced a strong season after missing a chunk of games early in the season with an injury. Karp hit .202 in in 31 games and produced a .405 on-base percentage. Karp mostly hit out of the nine-spot in the order, until moving to the lead off spot in Bucknell’s final two series.

Karp smashed four home runs on the year, including a home run in each of Bucknell’s final two games at Lafayette. Karp was great over the final few weeks of the season, racking up 12 hits and 12 RBIs in his last 12 games. Karp drew 17 walks, 13 hit-by-pitches, and only struck out 17 times.

Karp has maintained a 4.00 GPA during his career at Bucknell and was an Academic All-Patriot League last season. Karp is already a three-time member of the PL Academic Honor Roll.

Magovern had an excellent senior campaign after missing all of 2024 due to injury. Magovern was Bucknell’s No. 2 starter all season, producing a 5.13 ERA that ranked eighth in the PL.

The left-hander tossed 52.2 innings over 11 starts for the Bison. In six of his 11 starts, he has allowed two earned runs or less.

Magovern posted a 3.10 ERA over his final five appearances, giving quality starts in four of those games. He finished the season with a career-high 40 strikeouts and a 4-3 record.

Magovern had an impressive 3.77 GPA and is already three-time member of the PL Academic Honor Roll.

Bucknell holds the co-league-lead with Holy Cross and Lafayette with three selections on the Academic All-PL teams. Bucknell has three selections for the second consecutive year, and have had multiple selections in each of the previous four seasons.

Bucknell finished the season with an 18-27 record, finishing in fifth in the Patriot League with a 10-15 record.

SPOKANE, Wash. (May 7) — The Spokane Indians picked up back-to-back wins Wednesday night, grinding past the Vancouver Canadians 9-7 in a close battle at Avista Stadium.

On Smokey Bear Night, the evening didn’t start the way Spokane had hoped. Vancouver’s Adrian Pinto homered on the first pitch of the game to put the Canadians up 1-0. Indians starter McCade Brown settled in quickly, though, striking out two in the opening frame to limit the damage.

Spokane wasted little time responding. In the bottom of the first, Jared Thomas reached second base before Aidan Longwell ripped a double to drive him home and even the score.

The Indians took their first lead in the second inning when Caleb Hobson delivered a two-out RBI single. Thomas struck again in the third, doubling down the right-field line to extend Spokane’s advantage to 3-1.

The game turned went back-and-forth from there, with both teams trading runs. Spokane would regain the lead for good in the bottom of the eighth, capitalizing on a pair of back-to-back balks by Vancouver’s pitching.

The win gives the Indians a 2-0 lead in the six-game homestand, with the same two teams set to meet again Thursday night.

On Friday, you can watch the Spokane Indians on SWX for the first time this season with first pitch set for 6:30 p.m.
