No Injuries in Emergency Landing of SDSU Aircraft at Pierre Airport

PIERRE (11-5-26) — Pierre City Commission Airport Commissioner Jamie Huizenga addressed the presence of multiple emergency responders near Pierre Regional Airport last week. He says first responders reported to the airport for an aircraft in distress… “This past Sunday, the Pierre Regional Airport responded to an aircraft emergency involving a twin-engine, Piper Seminole operated by the South Dakota State University aviation program carrying two flight instructors and two students. Although initially reported as engine trouble, the pilots were actually dealing with an avionics malfunction that affected their aircraft’s instruments. The situation was made more challenging by near-freezing temperatures, potential icing conditions and flying in the clouds after dark.”

South Dakota State football vs Northern Iowa, prediction for Week 10

No. 5 South Dakota State has a second top-10 win of the season and a top-four ranking in the latest FCS Playoff Committee rankings, and the Jackrabbits have a trip to Northern Iowa as a reward. The Panthers are 4-0 at home and 0-4 on the road, holding wins over then-No. 3 Illinois State and then-No. 4 North Dakota. The UNI-Dome has proven to be a tough place to play this year, but South Dakota State head coach Dan Jackson thinks that's more of a testament to Northern Iowa's team. "They've won a lot of games at home in the past because they have really good teams, and that's what I'm seeing this year," Jackson said. "They're just a good team." The Jackrabbits have a good formula for picking up road wins with a top-ranked defense and run game complimented by a veteran quarterback. That will be tested by a Northern Iowa team that's physical and has only been blown out by Iowa. "It's a very physical group on their offensive line and their defensive line," Jackson said. "I think they're very physical, athletic guys and their running backs run hard and have some experience. When you look at it,

Watertown Public Opinion

Clark-Willow Lake, Hamlin, Britton-Hecla, Castlewood & Warner fall in semis

YANKTON — For the second time in three years, Watertown is facing perennial power Pierre for the state Class 11AA football championship. The third-seeded Arrows (8-3) secured their spot in the 2026 state Class 11AA title game by getting touchdowns from Hunter Peterson and Tyson Miller in the final five minutes and 10 seconds to rally for a 35-25 semifinal victory over No. 2 Yankton. The late surge lifted Watertown (8-3) to victory in a game that it led 21-10 at halftime. The Arrows won 42-14 at Yankton during the regular season. "I guarantee you not many teams have won twice at Yankton in the same season," Watertown coach John Hodorff said. "It's a tribute to our kids. There were multiple times in the football game they could have given up. It's a credit to all our players and coaches that it didn't happen. We came back, made some plays and won the game." Yankton had won five-straight games since the regular-season loss to Watertown and the Bucks definitely showed they were an improved team. After the Arrows used Holton Schutt's 50-yard return on the opening kickoff to set up Kaeden Himmerich's 34-yard touchdown pass to Miller, the Bucks rallied
