1983. I think Steele made state that year as well. Strasburg actually got knocked out by Linton in the Districts that year.

When I was in High School our JV went and played at Strasburg against their varsity. The floor had a center line but then on each side they had another line which was used for over and back. You had to get across the center line in 10 seconds but then you could go back to the other line so you had room to run your offense. The free throw arch cut through the center circle. They were not used when we played but they had lines on the wall of one side that were about 3 feet high....apparently they used to be the out of bounds lines, so if the ball hit below the line it was still in play. Most if not all of the fans were in a balcony overlooking the floor(they might have had 2-3 rows of bleachers on one side). I think they were ranked in the top 10 that year(Lost to Steele-Dawson to get to state i think) and their fans did not care that it was the Bismarck JV(it was Bismarck High as far as they were concerned). It didn't help that the guys on our team put on a dunk show in warmups and I don't think they had anyone who could dunk. They had 2-3 really good players who I knew from Basketball Camps and some "farmstrong" kids who were pretty physical. game was back and forth and we definitely did not get a favorable whistle as I think we had 4 guys foul out and we shot 6 or 8 free throws compared to their 35-40. At the end of the game, we did get a gift call which the crowd went crazy over and we snuck out with a 2 or 4 point win. Pretty crazy atmosphere and after the game as guys were getting ready to shower our coach came in and said, skip the showers, grab your !@#$ and lets get going. They had a few fans who let us know what they thought of us on the way to the bus.

I think it closed 3-4 years ago.

Moe's was better than both until the owners let the place go to sh!t.

Pilgrim leads his team in scoring and has missed a 1/4 of the season. It really comes down to what skills transfer from Juniors to college. Some guys find the skills that separated them in Juniors no longer happens in college(Cichy) and some guys just keep doing what they do. Would not surprise me in Pilgrim puts up .75-1.0 a game from his Sophomore to Senior seasons at UND.

My 3 seat section was stolen from my garage.

Unless Menghini picks it up in the 2nd half, maybe Menghini gets pushed out next year. I’m sure he’s a great kid and teammate but at the end of the day, the change of new team didn’t pan out. We pushed out Ashton Calder.

Yeah, he could obviously play for his dad at Bemidji State or for his uncle Jeff at Pittsburgh State.

It's been awhile since we had a pure shooter. Bemidji High School. Think he also plays AAU with Howard Pulley. His dad is former UND player and current Bemidji State Basketball Coach Mike Boschee.

Is Mike Boschee's kid Jaxon a D1 prospect? is he on our radar. 6-3 170 Averaging around 28 a game and 94% from the line and 45% from 3. Dropped 46, including the game winner on the Spuds last night.

Could be. It is Blanca Burns and she has worked NBA games

Malcom Parks?

What the hell. Here is the far too early current NCAA Bracket layout. Michigan, Penn State, Cornell, Bently UND, Dartmouth, Denver, UConn Bucky, Sparty, Quinnipiac, St. Thomas UMD, WMU, Augie, Providence

When I was in school in the mid/late eighties The football team and the hockey team did get into a pretty decent fight at The Bridge. Quite a few football players with jean jackets pulled over their heads catching lefts and rights. Ian Kidd absolutely rinsed one guy. Our house had a couple scuffles with the football team as well. I know for awhile Behrns and Gino basically banned their players from going to the East Side.
