Block has applied to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency for a national trust bank charter, the payments company behind Square and Cash App said on Tuesday.
Builders Bank & Trust would be uninsured and non-depository, taking no deposits and making no loans. Its business would be custody of Bitcoin and other digital ***** ets, executing customer buy and sell orders on a riskless principal basis, and stablecoin settlement.
Block has run digital ***** et services for about eight years under more than 50 state money transmitter and virtual currency licenses, the application says, handling around $10.7 billion in Bitcoin transaction volume in 2025 and serving about two million monthly crypto users through Cash App by the second quarter. A federal charter, Block says, would let it support those activities "through a consistent national framework as the business scales."
Builders Bank would be headquartered in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, with no branches. All five proposed directors live elsewhere, and Block has asked the OCC to waive the rule requiring one to live within 100 miles. Lee Woolley, Block's digital ***** et strategy lead and a former Northern Trust and BNY Mellon executive, would chair it and serve as chief executive.
Dorsey himself is not among the organizers, directors or senior executives, and appears in the filing only as Block's co-founder. The business plan and capital figures went in as confidential exhibits, and the bank cannot open unless the OCC approves.

Northern Kentucky University's men's basketball program announced its full slate of non-conference games with the Norse set to host five games at Truist Arena.
Northern Kentucky opens the 2026-27 season in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, taking on UTEP as part of the Field of 68 Opening Day Marathon. The Norse will stay in the Mount Rushmore State for a matchup with South Dakota on Nov. 4. As previously announced, NKU then heads to College Station, taking on Texas A&M on Nov. 6. It marks the first time the Norse have played Texas A&M since the 2017-18 campaign.

Both Texas A&M and Saint Louis reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament last season.
Then, the Norse start a four-game homestand leading into Thanksgiving, opening their home schedule on Nov. 14 against Central Michigan. Last season, NKU beat the Chippewas by 24 in Mount Pleasant. Northern Kentucky will then host Georgia Southern on Nov. 23 and Bellarmine on Nov. 25 as part of a a multi-team event with those teams playing each other at Truist Arena Nov. 24.

The Minnesota Golden Gophers volleyball team knew their season opening pair of games against ranked opponents in Sioux Falls in the State Farm Women's College Volleyball Showcase would be tough, and sure enough it was. Then #14 Minnesota was swept 3-0 by #13 Arizona State in Friday's season opener before the Gophers returned the favor to #12 Creighton on Saturday picking up a 3-0 sweep of their own.
In their season opener against Arizona State, the Gophers knew they would still be shorthanded as they slowly worked in their four starters who all missed large chunks of the season a year ago with injuries. Two of the four in McKenna Wucherer and Zeynep Palabiyik returned to action this past weekend while Minnesota still missed middle blocker Calissa Minatee and outside hitter Alex Acevedo. The Sun Devils had opened their schedule the weekend before with an upset win over #2 Texas 3-1.
The opening set was a back and forth affair with the two teams going through 11 ties and five lead changes before ASU took the set, 26-24. Minnesota led 22-20 but the Sun Devils would run off four of the next five points to take control.
In only went downhill from there for Minnesota. ASU jumped on the Gophers in the second set and won 25-17. ASU took an 8-2 lead out of the gate and while Minnesota would make several runs to cut the lead to just three points at multiple points, ASU would run off a 6-1 run to close the set for the win.
Minnesota showed signs of life in the third set, but once again could not hold a late 20-19 lead as ASU would win 26-24. Sun Devils star Una Vajagic finished of the match with back to back kills, two of her match high 20.

Sep. 1—ABERDEEN — In a deep field of individual standouts and top teams, the Mitchell High School boys golf team finished tied for 12th on Tuesday at the Hub City Invitational at Lee Park Golf Course.
Mitchell shot 317 as a team, which was the Kernels' second-best team score of the season so far, but it still landed Mitchell well off the pace of the top teams.
Sioux Falls Lincoln and O'Gorman tied with 294 team strokes at the top, as Lincoln won the second tiebreaker because the Patriots' sixth golfer scored better than O'Gorman's. Both teams' fifth golfer shot 74, moving the tiebreaker down to the No. 6 slot on each varsity team.
The individual medalist honors went to Aberdeen Roncalli's Harper Schnabel, who shot 3-under-68 to win the tournament by two strokes. Schnabel had five birdies in the round, including shooting 2-under-par on the course's back nine. Sioux Falls Jefferson's Trevor Rick, Rapid City Stevens' Cole Jansen and Watertown's Max Stemwedel each shot 1-under-70 and Roncalli's Lucas Daggett shot even-par-71 to round out the top-five places.
Mitchell was led by senior Asher Dannenbring, who shot a 4-over-75 on the day, finishing in 25th place in a field of 98 golfers. Kernel freshman Eli Konrad shot a season-best round of 79, and checked in at 48th place. Ian Weber also lowered his season-best score and shot a round of 80, which landed him in 55th place.

SIOUX CITY, IA (KCAU) - Next group up for Two-A-Days is the Pender Pendragons, after a huge 9-2 2025 season after back-to-back five-win seasons in 2023 and 2024.
The Dragons got themselves to the D1 state quarterfinals before falling to Shelby-Rising City 28-6.
The 8-man squad enters the new year without two of last season's biggest offensive weapons in the run game and passing game; however, there is a large group of returners, including quarterback Zander Welsh, who had over 1,700 total yards of offense and 31 touchdowns.
This team also brings back a familiar face to the head coach position, Andy Welsh, who has served as the head coach for the boys basketball team for the last several years. With his return, this group is very excited for the guys they are putting out on the field!
"We have 33 kids on the team. We are sitting here with 12 seniors on an 8-man football team, so we have a lot of depth. Our expectations are extremely high, and the kids have been working really hard to show what we can do," said Welsh.

Just like in football, it appears that the traditionally-strong volleyball programs in northeast and north central South Dakota will again lead the way in the 2026 season.
The new season kicks off on Tuesday, Aug. 25, and continues into November with Class A and B region tournaments slated for Nov. 2-5. SoDak 16 state-qualifying matches are set for Nov. 10 (Class A and B) and Nov. 12 (Class AA) with the winners advancing to the state tournament Nov. 19-21 at the Denny Sanford PREMIER Center in Sioux Falls.
To help you get prepared, here's five questions that will need to be answered by Watertown and Aberdeen area teams this fall.

The Class AA Arrows went 22-11 overall and 5-4 in the Eastern South Dakota Conference, capping a third-straight trip to the state tournament with a fourth-place finish. That came after a 26-8 record and a sixth-place finish at state in 2024 and a 27-7 record and the consolation championship at state in 2023.

Boston Celtics reserve big man Luka Garza held a youth basketball camp in the state he played his NCAA basketball, the Celtics center putting together his second Luka Garza Academy skills camp of the summer in Indianola, Iowa. Boston head coach Joe Mazzulla paid a visit to the camp as well in one of his many stops to spend time with his players this offseason.
Garza shared some thoughts on why he continues to make time for the camps with local ABC station KCAU-TV Sioux City, saying that "Iowa just means an incredible amount to me and my family."
"I feel like my life changed when I came here and I was able to get to my dreams and goals because of the University of Iowa," he added.
"Because of what I was able to learn here, because of the way I was able to develop here and I think within that time, the people here that supported me, that put their arms around me and pushed me every single day," said the Celtics center.
"I always feel like I owe something to them. And so for me every summer is trying to come and give back a little bit because I know how much was given to me in my time here."

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) -- The two teams that have met in each of the last two 11A state championships open the year atop the preseason rankings.
Sioux Falls Christian is the reigning state champion and they were the only unanimous number one in the preseason polls, claiming all 20 first place votes. Lennox finished as the state runner-up and they sit in second. Dell Rapids, West Central and Madison close out the top five.
Sioux Falls Christian
Sioux Falls Christian completed an undefeated season last year on their way to a state ****** le. The Chargers return about 10 starters total between offense and defense. Christian had the best scoring defense in 11A last year, led by one of the best linebacker groups in the state, but four of them graduated and the fifth recently suffered a broken ankle.
"Losing five linebackers out of our 3-5 defense is tough to replace, but we've got a lot of guys that have put in a ton of time and a lot of work," SFC head coach Jared Smith said. "They're really good and we like our speed on both sides of the ball."

SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KCAU) - The Explorers return home after a pair of road sereis, picking up crucial wins against Fargo-Moorhead and Winnipeg as the team looks to keep its postseason hopes intact with about three weeks remaining in the American ****** ociation regular season.
Sioux City has continued to chip away and cut into their postseason deficit, picking up four wins over a pair of road series at Fargo-Moorhead and then-West Division leading Winnipeg.
In Saturday's game against the Goldeyes, the Explorers plated a season-high 17 runs in the win - boosting the team's batting average into the league's top five at .278.
The Explorers enter the week 2.5 games back of I-29 rival Sioux Falls with 20 games to go, understanding the importance of the six-game home stand.
"It's go time. So we're viewing it as we're four and two in the playoffs right now. So two big series wins for us to to cut into the deficit that we are sitting at right now," X's manager Steve Montgomery mentioned. "So we know that these two series in this in this home stretch is going to be very, very important. We have to go out and have got to play good baseball and come away with some series wins."

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) --- Augustana quarterback Gunnar Hensley started five games in 2025 before suffering a season-ending injury. The Carlsbad, California, native has since recovered and is ready to lead the Vikings once more.
"News flash, Gunnar Hensley is really good," head coach Jerry Olszewski said. "He's really good. He's a complete player."
Hensley completed more than 71% of his passes in five games in 2025 before being sidelined, posting a team-high 1,419 yards and 13 touchdowns. The senior is counting down the days until he gets to build on that performance.
"I've been looking forward to August 3rd, that Monday morning practice for so long," Hensley said. "And now we're nine, ten, nine days away from game one, the excitement is building even more."
"Offensive player, like he understands defensive schemes," Olszewski said. "There's not going to be a whole lot of wool pulled over his eyes. Showing one thing, doing another. You might get him once, you won't get him twice because he's just smart. But he's also done it already."

The Huskies will play the second game of the slate in Rock Hill.
Majkrzak, whom NIU hired in March from Northern Michigan, said in a release that the opener will be "awesome" and that he grew up watching a previous version of the opening-day tipoff classic.

RAPID CITY — Another strong postseason run by the Watertown Arrows Post 17 baseball team ended with an 8-0 loss to Sioux Falls West in the 2026 state Class A American Legion Baseball Tournament.
Post 17, which went a combined 38-25 over the high school and Legion seasons in 2026, went 2-2 in the tourney and finished as one of the final four teams in the tourney.
Watertown opened the tourney on Tuesday, July 28 with a 10-2 loss to eventual champion Rapid City Post 22. Post 17 then beat Brandon Valley 5-3 in eight innings on July 29 and Rapid City Post 320 7-0 on July 30 before coming up short against Sioux Falls West.
"As the No. 10 seed, we knew we were going to have to play outstanding baseball if we wanted to stay in the tournament, and I thought our guys did exactly that over the course of four days," Post 17 coach Ryan Neale said. "Our only two losses came against the two teams that played for the state championship."
Here are some highlights from each of Post 17's state tourney games:

Jul. 24—SIOUX FALLS — 'Week 0' isn't a new frontier in college football.
But teams in the Missouri Valley Football Conference are embracing the first chance to get on the field for 2026, which means the opening games of the new season are coming sooner on the calendar.
Eight of the nine Missouri Valley teams are playing on the first weekend of the season, a week before the traditional Labor Day weekend start as in past seasons. (Only Northern Iowa is not in action for Week 0 this year.) Seven of the eight MVFC schools in action on the opening weekend are playing fellow Division I schools.
"I'm a huge supporter of not only starting earlier but getting the season done earlier," UND coach Eric Schmidt said. "There's no reason not to. Especially with everything that happens at the end of the season with championship games and trying to get kids into school. College football has always been a New Year's Day-ish postseason sport, where the season is coming to a close. I think it makes sense for these (players) as far as their schedules go, as well."
Schmidt noted that the last weekend in August is expected to become the new opening week for both FBS and FCS college football in the future, so FCS teams are getting a taste of what the schedule is expected to be going forward. That is a potential downside for the FCS: whatever standalone spotlight they've gotten in the past with their games is likely to be short lived as the FBS moves more games to Week 0, as well, making room for the expanded postseason at the end of the year.

T. Denny Sanford wanted to die broke. He nearly pulled it off.
The South Dakota banking magnate spent decades giving away his fortune, and by the end he had parted with more than $4 billion, $2 billion of which went to his namesake health system. The billionaire philanthropist died July 18 at age 90. As of March, his net worth was estimated at $2.4 billion.
"I want to die broke," Sanford told Forbes in 2007. "Very plainly, very succinctly, I look at life as an investor. What will give me or my community the best return?"
His donations turned a small regional hospital into one of the largest rural health-care networks in the country. That made him the "greatest philanthropist in South Dakota history," according to South Dakota Gov. Larry Rhoden.
Sanford gave across the state, which resulted in the Sanford Underground Research Facility, a major state ***** et in science and education; the Build Dakota Scholarships and the Premier/Freedom Scholarship, which have gone to thousands of young people; the Sioux Falls Development Foundation; and the Children's Home Society of South Dakota, where he was the biggest donor, according to the governor's office.

Jul. 14—SIOUX FALLS — The college football season kicked off in a way on Tuesday, with the Missouri Valley Football Conference holding its annual Media Day event at the Sanford Pentagon.
Both the University of South Dakota and South Dakota State University programs were represented. Here's a sampling of what they said in interviews with Midwest Sports Plus. To see full interviews with all nine teams,
visit the livestream replay on our website
.
SDSU quarterback Chase Mason on playing out his senior season at SDSU: "I'm just super excited to play a season with the guys we have. I love the senior class that we have this year. We've got a great group of guys and obviously **** ody wants to get hurt, but injuries are going to happen. I think my job for this year is getting guys prepared that, maybe last year, there weren't as many guys prepared when injuries happened. ... We know how high our ceiling can be and we have the most talented team that we could ever want and coach (Dan) Jackson has done a great job recruiting. I feel like the job this summer is to kind of raise that floor up. When injuries happen and things happen in the season like they are going to, you can't go around that. It's those guys that need to step up. There's going to be guys on the team that need to step up this year. That's what the summer is for."

Jul. 14—SIOUX FALLS — Last July, the UND football program came to Missouri Valley Football Conference Media Day as a total mystery.
The Fighting Hawks were entering Year 1 of head coach Eric Schmidt, a four-man race for quarterback was about to take place at fall camp, the offense was in dire need of replacing wide receiver Bo Belquist and the defense was changing scheme for the first time in decades without the leadership of graduated linebacker Wyatt Pedigo.
As the 2025 season played out, Schmidt exceeded expectations and hit on key transfer portal additions while Jerry Kaminski emerged as the clear starting quarterback and Lance Rucker discovered a position change was a perfect match for his skill set.
So this season, UND has arrived at MVFC Media Day — represented by Schmidt, Kaminski and Rucker — with a bit of a new swagger. Although plenty of questions remain to be answered about 2026, this UND group has a lot of answers, too. This UND group comes to Sioux Falls with some expectations and reasons for Fighting Hawks fans to believe in a special season ahead.
With any new season, particularly one in the transfer portal era, proven talent is vital to building the program. Many teams are in desperate search for a quarterback, offensive line help and a productive pass rusher. The Hawks are set there.

Jul. 14—SIOUX FALLS — For the third time in the last four seasons, South Dakota State is the preseason favorite in the Missouri Valley Football Conference ahead of the 2026 season, the league announced on Tuesday.
SDSU received 28 of the 36 first-place votes and 312 vote points to land in first place. Illinois State was second with 256 points, Youngstown State was third with 235 points, followed by North Dakota in fourth (211) and South Dakota in fifth (196).
The rest of the league preseason order included Southern Illinois in sixth, Northern Iowa in seventh, Indiana State in eighth and Murray State in ninth place.
The preseason poll was announced in conjunction with the conference's media day event on Tuesday at the Sanford Pentagon.
A total of five teams received first place votes, with three for Illinois State, which played in the FCS championship game and finished as national runner-up in January. UND and USD each got two first-place votes and SIU also picked up a first-place nod.

Eli Anema and Katie Wold each won their second Sioux Falls Golf City Championship on Saturday, June 28, at Prairie Green Golf Course. Both golfers took different paths to their victories and are at very different points of their competitive careers.
The first day of competition, Friday, June 27, was at Elmwood Golf Course, and the second day was at Prairie Green.
Anema is entering his junior year at Indiana Wesleyan University, an NAIA program. He shot a two-over 74 on both days to win the Men's Championship Flight, beating Ryan Ames by six strokes.
Wold trailed by two strokes heading into the second day, then ripped off an 82 to win the tournament by eight strokes.
Anema became the first-ever back-to-back Sioux Falls Golf Men's City Champion with his 2026 win. The Sioux Falls Christian alum dominated both courses, recording five birdies at Elmwood and two, including one on 18, at Prairie Green.

Those hoping hoping to see the Sox splash the cash on some hard-to-sign candidates on day 2 of the MLB Draft were immediately disappointed, as the Red Sox spent their fifth round pick on Lucas Davenport, a pitcher out of Baylor University who was unranked by both Baseball America and MLB Pipeline heading into the draft.
Davenport is a beastly 6-6, 230 lbs. and his pick launched a mini-run on those big college pitchers Craig Breslow likes so much: sixth rounder Brett Lanman, a 6-5, 23o lbs. lefty out of Abilene Christian, eighth rounder Josh Volmerding, a 6-4, 210 lbs. lefty out of California Polytech, thirteenth rounder Mason Lei, a 6-4, 215 lbs. righty out of the University of Illinois-Chicago, and fifteenth rounder Chase Frey, a 6-6 225 lbs. lefty out of Grand Canyon University.
The highlights of Day 2 are the two higher-ranked high schoolers the Sox nabbed back-to-back in the ninth and tenth rounds. Ninth rounder Martin Shelar, an outfielder, comes out of the baseball powerhouse that is the Marist School in Georgia. He has massive power potential, is committed to Mississippi State, and was ranked as the 65th-best prospect overall by FanGraphs, 125th by Baseball America, and 175th by MLB Pipeline.
Tenth rounder Kaleb LaFavor out of Bishop Heelan Catholic High School in Sioux City, Iowa is a towering 6-7 righty with a ton of extension who can already hit 95 MPH on the gun. He was ranked the 171st-best prospect by ESPN evaluator Kiley McDaniel, 465th by Baseball America, and is committed to the University of Iowa. Craig Breslow's got bonus pool money burning a hole in his pocket, and it's going to go to these guys in hopes of enticing them away from college (speaking as someone who spent a fair bit of time partying in Iowa City as a 22-year-old, good luck in LeFavor's case).
Here's the full slate of day 2 picks:

Jul. 5—BYRON — The list of college commits on the Byron High School football team keeps growing.
Rising senior safety and receiver Beau Nicklay is one of the latest Bears' players to share his verbal commitment to Division II University of Minnesota-Duluth on social media on June 30.
As a junior, Nicklay recorded 32 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss and one interception returned for a touchdown. On offense, he had 120 yards and two touchdowns on five catches. He also averaged 14.83 yards on 18 punt returns.
The 5-foot-11, 187-pound Nicklay received four offers from Division II programs: UMD, University of Sioux Falls, Southwest Minnesota State University and Wayne State University in Detroit.
He was deciding between UMD and Sioux Falls, but the path to his decision ultimately began with Byron's annual trips to Duluth for team football camps.
