Sioux Falls, S.D. (AP) A North Dakota high school principal says appropriate action is being taken after three students briefly donned Ku Klux Klan-style white robes and hoods during a state hockey semifinal game.
 
Red River High Principal Kristopher Arason says an investigation determined the students wore the attire for 30 seconds to a minute during the Friday night matchup at Ralph Engelstad Arena before other students in the section complained.
 
A photo posted to twitter shows the three hooded fans in the middle of the section, in which everyone is dressed in white for a "whiteout'' tradition.
 
Arason says the behavior is not representative of the student body.
 
Red River beat Fargo Davies 2-0. The Fargo school is named after the Federal judge whose 1957 rulings integrated a Little Rock, Arkansas high school.
