PIERRE – Bennett Dean homered and drove in four runs and Jack Van Camp fired a two-hit shutout Friday as Post 8 ran past Yankton 10-0 in the first game of a South Dakota Class A Legion state tournament series at Hyde Stadium.
Dean gave the Eights their first two runs with a two-run shot in a six-run second inning. Lincoln Kienholz had two hits and an RBI. Jack Merkwan and Elliott Leif also drove in runs. Jayden Wiebe had two hits. Van Camp struck out six and walked four.
Post 8 will look to advance to the state tournament in game two of the best-of-three series Saturday at noon at Hyde Stadium. A Yankton win would force a third game, shortly after game 2.

World War II Battleships Had a Special Room for Treating ‘Social Diseases’

The Iowa-class battleship USS New Jersey underwent many modifications in its nearly 50-year history, but there’s one modification it doesn’t really advertise. If you’ve ever been in the “dental storage room” aboard the USS New Jersey, then you’ve seen the ship’s venereal disease treatment room.
In a February 2021 YouTube video, the uncomfortable-looking curator of the Battleship New Jersey Museum & Memorial went aboard the USS Massachusetts to tour its “social diseases” room to talk about why it was a necessary compartment.
Iowa-class battleships some thirty years ago, and one of the battlewagons, USS
Missouri (BB-63), was given a big-screen sendoff when she appeared in the 1992 film
Under Siege starring martial arts action star Steven Segal.
All four of the warships, which were constructed during the Second World War as a new class of fast battleship, had been in a mothballed state since the Vietnam War era. However, in the 1980s, after President Ronald Reagan called for a 600-ship U.S. Navy, USS
Iowa (BB-61) and her three sister battleships were reactivated and upgraded with new combat systems to address the threats of the Cold War. Many of the ships smaller five-inch guns were replaced with launchers for Harpoon anti-ship missiles, and notably Tomahawk cruise missiles. Additionally, the ships each received four Phalanx close-in weapon systems (CIWS).
HERMOSA It has been 57 years since Billy Mills won his gold medal at 10,000 meters in Tokyo, and for two decades before he ran, and for over four decades after he ran, Native runners were the dominant force in South Dakota distance running. That is no longer the case.
It is not just that individual performance has waned, or that teams stopped being competitive, it is much worse than that. The cross country programs across Indian Country have flat-lined. Participation is on life support and it is hard to blame the kids, the coaches, the schools, given how deeply competitiveness has deteriorated. The causes for the decline are not easy to identify or understand.
