Talks about the Summit breaking its new attendance marks for its basketball championships and the header already has UND listed for future membership. (and five of the other nine teams UND has been playing in one sport or another for years)
This could be a good way to help grow basketball in Grand Forks and could become the "WCHA Final Five" of UND college basketball that so many of the hockey fans enjoyed.
The Summit Championship is on ESPN2 vs the Big Sky on ESPNU.
I believe this league could someday rival the Missouri Valley.
