PIERRE – Pierre Governor Track & Field will compete Friday and Saturday in the State AA meet at Woodle Field in Sturgis. This year’s state meet was modified by the SDHSAA due to COVID-19 concerns. Each classification will compete in a single site and the schedule of events is compressed, with only a few events having preliminary heats.
Governor Track & Field Head Coach Greg Starr said that his team has made good progress this season.

PIERRE – After missing the Boys’ AA SoDak 16 in 2020, the Pierre Governors qualified in 2021. They will face one of the hottest teams currently in South Dakota high school basketball, O’Gorman, on Saturday afternoon in Sioux Falls. Once 6-6, the Knights won their last eight regular-season games to finish 14-6. The last of those wins came last Saturday, 65-38 over the Governors in Sioux Falls. Pierre has 7-12 and is the 13th seed. O’Gorman is the fourth seed.
Pierre Head Coach Terry Becker said that O’Gorman’s good defense and the Governors’ struggling offense led to last Saturday’s result.
