ROCHESTER — As far as Jodi Engstler can recall, she had never been on an Easter egg hunt before Sunday. “I was deprived,” she said. On Easter Sunday, April 20, 2025, Engstler, 60, could cross that experience off her list of things yet to do. Engstler didn’t have to fend off any 5-year-olds to get an egg, either. She was at Shar’s Country Palace for their annual adult Easter egg hunt Sunday where the competition was friendly.

CESKE BUDEJOVICE, Czech Republic — Ten months from now, Taylor Heise will very likely be wearing the red, white and blue of Team USA in her first-ever Olympic Games. Heise and her U.S. teammates will head to Italy as one of the two favorites — if not the favorite. In the final Women's World Championship hockey tournament before the 2026 Olympic Games, the U.S. and Canada again met for the gold medal — the 24th consecutive time those countries have played for gold at the WWC.

ROCHESTER — For 78 years, Thomas Leonard has looked at life differently than most other people. "I've been blind in my right eye all my life," said Leonard, a lifelong Rochester resident. As a teen, his limited vision changed how he approached reading in school, driving a car and playing sports. Despite being right-handed, Leonard said he does a lot of things left-handed, like holding his gun while out hunting.

4 days ago | postbulletin.com | Charles Pekar

We continue to track an active stretch of spring weather as we head through the end of the weekend. Temperatures will remain rather seasonable, in the mid-50s today, but we have overcast skies for much of the day. By the afternoon, we are tracking the chance for showers to slide up from northern Iowa, and that will bring in the chance for light rain through much of the night as well. A few showers may linger overnight, but through the day on Monday we will briefly dry out.

LAS VEGAS – Even for a grizzled veteran like Wild defenseman Zach Bogosian, who has been in the NHL for 17 seasons and has a Stanley Cup title on his resume, standing in front of a backdrop that features the Stanley Cup logo as he talked to reporters in a Nevada suburb had a different feel. “This is why we play hockey,” Bogosian said of the playoffs.

Southeast Minnesota colleges are contending with a new kind of fraud: Ghost students

5 days ago | postbulletin.com | Matthew Stolle

ROCHESTER — Last year, officials at Minnesota State College Southeast were heartened by a gratifying trend. Spring enrollment numbers were up — way up. It was a mirage. Many of the students weren’t real. They were “ghost students.” In all, the college ended up dropping 84 fake students — all believed to be part of a scam to access and abscond with financial aid money. The ploy represents a new kind of enrollment fraud that U.S. and area colleges are facing.

5 days ago | postbulletin.com | Charles Pekar

After showers moved through at the end of the week, we will start off teh weekend by drying out today. Sunshine looks to be abundant through the day, and with winds remaining light, highs get well into the 50s for the afternoon. Tonight could be a touch on the chilly side, as lows do drop back into the 30s, but we will warm right back up for Sunday. Through most of Sunday morning, we have increasing clouds, but still some sun shining through.
