Facing a penalty shootout with Alexandria in the postseason for the second-straight year, Bemidji once again advanced with a 6-5 victory on penalties after a 1-1 draw in a dramatic Section 8A girls soccer semifinal at Alexandria High School on Wednesday.

Jesus Moreno’s 71st-minute goal was the decisive tally as Pelican Rapids advanced to its first-ever Section 8A boys soccer final with a 1-0 victory over Bemidji in a Section semifinal game yesterday at Alexandria High School, ending a run of four consecutive appearances in the final for the Lumberjacks.

Six different players contributed touchdowns on the ground and through the air for Bemidji football as the Lumberjacks gave head coach Bryan Stoffel his first victory in a dominant 48-6 drubbing of Sartell-St. Stephen on Friday at Chet Anderson Stadium.

After a close victory in the first set, Bemidji volleyball used dominant second and fourth sets to roll to a 3-1 victory over St. Cloud Tech in its home opener on Thursday at the Bemidji High School Fieldhouse.

A golden goal winner from Noah Johnson in the 94th minute snatched a 1-0, double-overtime victory for North #3 seed Bemidji boys soccer against #2N East Grand Forks in a tightly-matched Section 8A quarterfinal Thursday evening at East Grand Forks High School.

Goals from starters and substitutes alike and a fourth shutout of the season helped North #4 seed Bemidji girls soccer secure a third playoff victory in four seasons against #1N East Grand Forks on Thursday with a 3-0 Section 8A quarterfinal win at East Grand Forks High School.
