Kyler Stenson added to Shrine roster
The 77th Montana East-West Shrine Game just got a little more Butte flavor.
Butte High senior Kyler Stenson was added to the West Side roster, West coordinator Jeff Hartwick said today. He was one of six alternates to be moved up to the roster.
Also getting bumped up are Florence defensive tackle Arie McLaughlin, Columbia Falls offensive tackle Hunter Goodman, Helena High safety Brett Grange, Kalispell Flathead outside linebacker Braden Casper and Jefferson High cornerback Parker Wagner.
The 6-foot-3, 220-pound Stenson will play defensive tackle for the West side. He registered 26 total tackles to go along with three and a half sacks for the Bulldogs last fall. Tech coach Kyle Samson said Stenson will also play defensive end for the Orediggers.
Stenson will be joined on the West roster with teammate Butte High Kade Schleeman and Butte Central’s Zane Moodry. All three Butte players on the West roster will play for the Orediggers, as will Butte High senior Bo Demarais. Demarais is still on the West side alternate list.
The Shrine Game will be played June 15 in Billings. The West side will practice in Butte.
The full rosters for both teams were released to the media on Christmas morning.

My two biggest role models
At the time, I thought my dad might punch him out.
I am pretty sure he punched guys for less, and this guy was being pretty rude that day at the Elks Lodge.
That was one of the many days when I went with my dad as he played handball down stairs at the Elks. I shot baskets while he played, and I continued to shoot as he went upstairs for a couple of beers.
I am fairly confident that I hold the record for most shots attempted and made on that old court in the basement of the Elks.
After hitting the game-winning shot in the imagery game I played as I shot by myself, I walked upstairs to get a pop with my dad. As I walked into the bar, I heard this guy, who was a teacher, raise his voice at my dad, who was between jobs at the time.
Apparently, my dad’s recent or prolonged unemployment was the topic of conversation.
“That’s your own damn fault,” the teacher yelled at my dad. “You could have worked at the mine, but you chose not to. That’s your own damn fault.”
Like most kids, I thought my dad was Superman growing up, and I was glad he didn’t punch the rude teacher. It wouldn’t have been a fair fight, and I assume that is why my dad held back. Plus, I know my dad always liked that teacher — even after his rude comments that day.
On the way home, I asked what the heck the teacher was talking about. I wanted to know what he meant when he said my dad could have had a good job.
His answer was simple. That job was non-union.
One day in the early 1980s, my dad came home with a pink slip from the Atlantic Richfield Co., which bought the Anaconda Co. a few year earlier, just a few days after Christmas. Even though I was only 6 or 7, I have a vivid memory of my mom crying as my dad broke the news as he walked through the kitchen door.
My dad was an electrician with the Company, and I figured he would be for life. Instead, he was one of hundreds of people to lost their job that day.
That led to almost a decade of my dad working on the road, leaving my mom and two brothers behind as he tried to make a living for all of us.
He would send home most of the money he made, holding back just enough to pay for a dive motel room and some groceries.
When the new open-pit mine reopened as a non-union outfit a few years later, my dad could have probably have taken a steady job in Butte again — assuming he wasn’t already blackballed because of his reputation as a union man.
Taking that job, however, would have meant selling out on everything he believed in.
Like his dad before him, my dad is a staunch union man. Together, my dad and grandpa, who probably would have punched out that teacher, combined for more than 125 years — and counting — as members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW).
There was no way my dad would take a non-union job. It was never an option. Even at 75 and retired, he is still a member of the IBEW.
My great-grandpa was a big union guy, too. He was instrumental in the great paper boys’ strike in the 19-teens.
As a very young boy, I remember my grandpa stressing the importance of a picket line to me. He told me that if I’m ever walking into the M&M and I see even one shoeshine boy with a picket sign, then I turn around.
It was a speech he gave me, my brothers and cousin many times over the years. Crossing a picket line is just something that you never did. A union man taking a non-union job might be the only thing that was as bad, according to the influential men of my life.
My dad and grandpa were always strong on their convictions, and standing up on principle was just something they always did.
Having integrity like that often comes at a cost, and my family saw that first-hand in the 1980s. We would often go months at a time without seeing my dad, and we didn’t have enough money to talk to him on the telephone very often. We didn’t have cell phones then, and long-distant calls added up quickly.
When we were lucky, my dad worked close enough that he could drive home with his electrician buddies for the weekend. He would get home really late on Friday night and then have to leave again on Sunday afternoon.
The times when we did get to see him for extended periods of time were even worse because that meant that he was out of work. Those were some pretty lean times in our house.
Sacrifice, though, was nothing new to my dad. When he was 18 years old in 1967, he volunteered for the military draft. While other guys his age were heading to college, bailing to Canada or looking for deferments because of bone spurs, my dad voluntarily signed on to what he was sure was a trip to Vietnam with the Army.
He had orders for ’Nam, too. But those orders changed when the North Koreans captured the USS Pueblo in January of 1968. So, he spent a couple of years near the DMZ in South Korea.
He volunteered for the draft because he figured he was going to be drafted eventually. Plus, he said he didn’t want someone else to have to go in his place.
Decades earlier, my grandpa was set to be the starting quarterback for the Butte Central football team as a senior. Instead of going to school that year, though, my grandpa, at the age of 17, joined the Navy so he could help save the world in World War II.
Like my dad, my grandpa, who would have turned 99 on Thursday, always had a great B.S. filter. He had an unbelievable ability to see through phony people, and he was never afraid to call them out.
Neither ever took a shortcut, and they always traveled the high road — even when the low road was much easier to take.
From the time I can first remember, I paid attention to the words and actions of those two men. They shaped me into the person I am today.
I like to think I am a lot like my dad and grandpa, even though nobody, including myself, can stack up to them in my eyes. Neither man was famous, but they were respected by those who knew them. And you always knew where you stood with them.
Over the last eight months, I have been lucky enough to talk with a lot of people as I am running for my next job, and I have been asked all kinds of questions. The other day, I got the best one.
Time after time, we have seen people with good intentions run for office. Once they win, they are corrupted by power, money and influence.
It is hard for voters to know which candidates will stay true to themselves and which ones will sell out. Truth be told, many of the candidates don’t know themselves.
“How do you know you will be able to stay above the ick?” this voter asked me.
I could have given her some canned campaign lines or promises that so many candidates give to try to convince the voter that I know I will be able to do that.
But I know there are two big reasons why I will always be the same person with the same principles, no matter what job title I hold.
So, I told her about my grandpa and my dad.

Stajcar wins Montana Gatorade
CHICAGO — Cayde Stajcar has joined some pretty exclusive company.
The Butte High sophomore was named the 2023-23 Gatorade Montana Baseball Player of the Year Monday. This marks the first time the baseball award was handed out in Montana.
The announcement comes after the 6-foot-2, 195-pound shortstop helped lead the Bulldogs to a 12-8 record and a fourth-place showing the State tournament in Missoula. He batted .561 on the season. He scored 37 runs, drove in 18, collected 10 steals and an OPS of 1.425. Stajcar also pitched four innings, striking out eight and picking up a win.
Overall, Stajcar is the eighth Butte High athlete to win a Gatorade award. Bulldogs Scott Ferguson, Gary Kane and Lexie Nelson won in basketball, Dalton Daum and Erika McLeod won in track, Jaimee Paffhausen won in softball, and Tommy Mellott took home the award in football.
Butte Central’s Dougie Peoples won the award a year ago in basketball.
Gatorade has been honoring the nation’s most elite high school athletes for 39 years. The award, which celebrates the nation’s top high school athletes for excellence on the field, in the classroom and in the community, distinguishes Stajcar as Montana’s best high school baseball player.
From CEOs and coaches to star athletes, Gatorade Player of the Year winners showcase the power of sport, touting an all-star group of alumni that includes Gary Sheffield (1985-86, Hillsborough High School, Fla.), Alex Rodriguez (1992-93, Westminster Christian School, Fla.), Clayton Kershaw (2005-06, Highland Park High School, Texas) and Max Clark (2022-23, 2021-22 & 2020-21, Franklin Community High School, Ind.).
Stajcar has volunteered locally as an official for the East Middle School Unified basketball program for student-athletes with special needs. A participant in Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, he has also donated his time on behalf of Action, Inc. in addition to umpiring youth baseball and softball games.
“Cayde is a kid you hate to coach against because of his amazing skill, but he’s impossible not to like because he’s a great young man,” Butte Central coach Richie O’Brien said. “His defense is phenomenal. His speed gives him range that players would kill for and he’s got an arm that can set the ball on fire out of his hand. His defense is outshined only by his bat. He can flat out hit the ball. Pitchers from all over the state know they can’t miss a spot when he’s up, but even if they put the ball where they want it could be, and likely will be, barreled up.”
Stajcar has maintained a 3.71 GPA in the classroom.
The Gatorade Player of the Year program annually recognizes one winner in the District of Columbia and each of the 50 states that sanction high school football, girls’ volleyball, boys and girls cross country, boys and girls basketball, boys and girls’ soccer, baseball, softball, and boys and girls track & field, and awards one National Player of the Year in each sport. The selection process is administered by the Gatorade Player of the Year Selection Committee, which leverages experts including coaches, scouts, media and others as sources to help evaluate and
determine the state winners in each sport.
As part of Gatorade’s commitment to breaking down barriers in sport, every Player of the Year also receives a grant to donate to a social impact partner. To date, the Gatorade Player of the Year program has provided more than $4.9 million in grants to winners across more than 1,900 organizations.

Podcast No. 190: Zach Stenson
Nobody is a bigger Red Sox fan than Zach Stenson.
Nobody is a bigger Patriots fan than Zach. Or Duke fan. Or Butte fan.
Zach also represents all that is good with the Special Olympics. In July of 2018, Zach competed in the Special Olympics USA Games in Seattle. He was the first Butte athlete to compete at that level.
Of course, Zach did much more than just compete. He came home with three medals, including a gold medal for winning the 400-meter race.
Each Aug. 10, you can find Zach playing his heart out in the Burgman/Boyle Classic basketball game. The game is named in honor of Kyle Burgman and Casey Boyle, two Butte friends who were killed Aug. 10, 2015 in an automobile accident.
That game is so important to all our Special Olympian basketball players. It might be even more important to Zach. Casey was Zach’s favorite teacher and coach.
When he ran in the USA Games in 2018, Zach competed with Casey’s initials written on his shoes. He drew a cross by the initials.
Now, Zach is passing on the coaching wisdom he learned from Casey. He is the newest assistant coach for the Butte Miners baseball team. He gets to coach his cousin Quinn Cox, an outstanding catcher for the Miners.
Listen in to this podcast to hear Zach’s plans with the Miners. Listen to hear about the multiple times Zach has gone viral with a video and why he cheers for the Patriots. Listen to hear if the current Red Sox have any hope.
Spoiler alert: they don’t.
Today’s podcast is brought to you by Casagranda’s Steakhouse. Eat where the locals eat.

A fitting honor for Jeff LeProwse
Jeff LeProwse’s 2013 Butte Miners baseball team didn’t need a fancy baseball field.
In fact, those boys didn’t need a field at all.
“These guys will play on a parking lot,” LeProwse said as he got ready for the season.
Compared to the fields the other American Legion teams around the state played on, a parking lot did not seem like much of a step back from the Miners’ new digs on Field No. 4 at Copper Mountain Park.
Butte’s American Legion Baseball program appeared to be on life support. The year before, the team had 11 players in the entire program, and then the Miners lost their home field in the name of progress on the Montana Tech campus.
Tech was renovating Alumni Coliseum to put in an artificial turf for the football field, and the school had plans to build a beautiful new building where the grandstands once stood.
So, the 2012 season was the final in a long run at Alumni Coliseum for the Butte Miners.
The smart money was on the Miners closing up shop. But the smart money didn’t know Jeff LeProwse, the man we call “Frenchy.”
The numbers were not on his side. The field was not on his side, and the knuckleheads in charge of Montana Legon Baseball wouldn’t let the Miners play in the Class A because the town had too many boys in high school.
When the Butte boys needed a life line, so many other Legion baseball programs around the state offered them a foot on the head as they struggled to stay above water.
Even some of the strongest supporters of baseball in Butte figured it was curtains for the Butte boys. We had a good run. It was time for the Miners and Muckers to go the way of the Butte Copper Kings and disappear forever.
However, LeProwse did not waiver. Come hell or high water, the Butte Miners were going to have a season. And they did.
While they couldn’t play a conference schedule in 2013, they played all spring and summer. When they couldn’t play in a conference tournament, LeProwse found a way to get them to play on an even bigger stage.
The Miners played as “Team Montana” in the Western Region Big League Baseball Tournament in Bremerton, Washington, in July of 2013.
Eventually, the Miners started playing in the Class AA again, even though they didn’t have the numbers or age to compete. The players and their coach just kept showing up to play, even as the losses mounted.
Slowly, though, the program started to build up. Eventually, Butte was allowed to play in the Class A because our high school enrollment numbers dropped low enough that the other Legion programs had no choice but to compete against the Miners.
In 2022 — nine years after the Butte boys first found themselves without a home — the Butte Miners were champions of the Montana Class A and the Northwest Class A Region.
It is one of the greatest comeback stories ever told.
Even better than that, baseball is thriving in Butte like it has not in years. Not only did we eventually get the Butte Muckers back in the Legion program, last year we added a third team, the Butte Motormen.
Boys in Butte are once again growing up dreaming of being Butte Miners. That would not be happening without Jeff LeProwse.
Butte has had some bona fide legends in its baseball program over the years. None were bigger that Jack Whelan, Jim Hanley and Jack Cavanagh, the three legends of 3 Legends Stadium.
LeProwse is right on their level.
Not only did he keep the boys playing, he led the charge to give them their new stadium. He was the mastermind behind the project. He had a dream and he pushed and pushed until that dream became a reality.
That took countless hours of planning, working and dreaming. LeProwse did all that because he knew the boys of Butte wanted to play.
He had coached the few players of 2012 and 2013 Miners in travel ball for years, and he knew their mentality. The only person around who loved baseball as much as the players was their coach. Jeff would play on a parking lot, so he would certainly coach on one.
Butte’s boys played on Field No. 4 on Copper Mountain Park from 2013 through 2016. The field did not have lights or permanent seating. It was basically a bigger version of a Little League field.
Scown Field uptown is a way nicer stadium than what the Miners were playing on.
Not once did you hear LeProwse or his players complain, though. They just showed up and played until 3 Legends Stadium opened in May of 2017.
We went from one step above a parking lot to one of the best Legion facilities in the state. Never again will the Butte boys have to wonder where they will play.
LeProwse stepped down from coaching the Miners after a 10-year run in 2021. That was 10 years in which he spent every free second on baseball — even in the winter. His vacation days went to take the Miners on the road for games.
LeProwse stayed on as president of the program, though, and watched as his older brother, Jim, coached the Miners to the District, State and Regional titles in 2022.
Jeff played Buck Showalter to Jim’s Joe Torre. He was Mark Beckman to Jim’s Tom Berg.
But nobody in town was happier to see the Miners crowned champions than Jeff.
This past Saturday night, the Butte Legion program let Jeff know just how much his years of dedication are appreciated. In a surprise ceremony in the rain, the Butte Legion program named its Memorial Day tournament the “Jeff LeProwse Baseball Tournament.”
While I voted for the “Frenchy Invitational,” that name is a fitting one.
As words of some of the people who know all that Jeff has done were read over the speakers, current and future Legion players surrounded Jeff on the field.
Public address announcer Dave Dunmire read the words of Jim LeProwse last. Those words were directed to his younger brother.
“Without your dedication and leadership, American Legion Baseball in Butte would no longer exist,” Jim’s statement read. “It took a lot of courage to take a group of 14- and 15-year-old players and compete in (Class) AA Legion Baseball without a field to call your own and against teams with much older players on it.”
There wasn’t a dry eye at the ballpark when Jim’s words continued.
“I want you to look around the stadium at all the kids who are now playing Miners Junior Baseball. They have these opportunities because of your vision, leadership and dedication.”
It is not hyperbole to say that Jeff LeProwse saved baseball in Butte. It is simply stating fact.
If you go to a ballgame and watch the city light up as the sun goes down, you will see that there is not a better site in town. There might not be a better view anywhere, and we owe that all to Jeff.
Jim suggested that someday the stadium name should be changed to 4 Legends Stadium to include his brother. Jeff would never let that happen. He would have stopped the naming of the tournament had he known it was coming.
That naming the tournament in Jeff’s honor was a great touch to let the next generations know why they have such a beautiful ballpark to call their own.
Jim is right, though. Maybe the name of the stadium should be changed to include Jeff.
However, it might be more fitting to name the parking after him instead.

Leskovar Honda Athletes of the Week: Moodry, Stewart and Henderson
Ella Moodry, Brityn Stewart and Sam Henderson are this week’s Leskovar Honda Athletes of the Week.
The honors come after the outstanding Butte athletes posted big-time performances at their State track meets over the weekend.
Stewart and Moodry share the girls’ honor after they each captured State titles in the javelin. Moodry, a senior at Butte Central, won her third Class A State title in Laurel. She won this time with a mark of 132 feet, 1 inch. She beat second-place Daeja Fike by one inch.
Moodry, who has signed to compete for the University of Montana, also won the State javelin title as a freshman and junior. She took second to Fike during her sophomore year.
Stewart, a Butte High junior, captured the Class AA crown in Great Falls by launching the javelin 130-7. She beat second-place Ava Dierolf by 2 feet, 1 inch. Stewart’s previous best going into State was 117-2.
In addition to track & field, Stewart is a standout in basketball and volleyball for the Bulldogs.
Henderson, a junior at Butte High, capped his first year competing for Butte High by placing second in the triple jump and third in the high jump. The Butte Central transfer busted off a personal-best mark of 47 feet, 2 ¼ inches in the triple jump. Scott Klinker of Great Falls High won the title at 48- ½.
Henderson’s mark broke the school record of 47-1 set by Scott Hemmert in 1989.
In the high jump, Henderson cleared 6 feet, 4 inches to finish in a six-way tie for second. He placed third on jumps. Quinn Clark of Gallatin won by clearing 6-8.
For the second year, Leskovar Honda, home of the 20-year, 200,000-mile warranty, is teaming up with the ButteCast to honor the finest student-athletes from the Mining City in an effort to encourage more children to get up, get out and try all kinds of sports and activities.
