SIOUX29 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Since we are talking highschool coaches, Minot really needs to get a new coach. Agree 100% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchmaker49 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Funny I'm at the central game right now and am a central graduate. I know parents on the team and my in laws have a son on the team. That's all the info you'll get from me so don't ask for names because you shouldn't so naive to expect me to divulge such info. One quick question. How is it relevant if a parent played at a higher level than highschool? Playing ability matters not when knowing the game of hockey, but you knew that didn't you. I don't know. You brought it up. So you have a brother-in-law on the team? You still have not told us as to why Bina is such a bad coach. Just admit that you opened your mouth and inserted foot and now are trying to extract said foot from mouth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watchmaker49 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 1-0 RRHS over a clearly less skilled GFC team I think Chase is being outcoached in this game even though hes winning on a fluke goal Now there is a coach with a ton of playing experience. Oh wait he never played past Pee Wees. Now before anyone gets in a tizzy I have known Billy since kindergarden or 1st grade. Billy never may have played but he always was a serious student of the game and knows the game great. As for his character if I had a kid playing hockey I would want him playing for Billy. By the way his mom is one helluva a great lady. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runaroundsioux Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Fort Yates came back from a huge deficit with little time remaining,Wyman Archambault? right? Remember no 3 pointer then. I'd have to look up the details but it was a barnburner, Adelson was going nuts. Alas, I was just a boy, but I remember it well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andtheHomeoftheSIOUX!! Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Agree 100% Kids aren't developed at all in highschool in Minot. Also, discipline is a problem. And there has been very little if any development coordination between the boosters and the highschool- mostly the fault of the head highschool coach, Burchhard. It's been that way since Blais left. Also, the quicker the ice situation is resolved and the 3rd sheet at MAYSA is built, the better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxVolley Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Bob Eaglestaff on that Fort Yates team? Fred Lukens too. Both were mainstays of the Sioux teams in the 70's. Jogged my memory a bit. The superteam from Fort Yates with Eaglestaff and Lukens lost in the first round of the state tournament the next year(?) Jamestown, the team that beat them in the state first round, basically broke down and cried when they heard Fort Yates lost in the finals of the Southwest region for their first loss. Jamestown was expecting to be on the other side of the bracket. Fort Yates with Eaglestaff and Lukens was feared as a juggernaut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runaroundsioux Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Legend of Archambault Thursday, March 10, 2011 Countless youngsters, farm kids and city kids alike, have dreamed of playing in the North Dakota high school basketball tournament since it began in 1914. The Class B tourney gets the most attention, because small towns gain the limelight. However, the Class A, large-school, boys basketball tournament has also had dramatic championship games. One of those came on this date in 1973, when Fort Yates captured the Class A boys basketball title, defeating Minot in triple overtime. This championship game created the legend of Wyman Archambault. Archambault was a “5-foot-10 jumping jack” with lightning quickness at the guard position. Fort Yates also featured center Darrell Eaglestaff, a six-foot-four scoring machine. Fort Yates reached the championship game despite having the smallest enrollment in Class A. It had never been the Class A champion. The Minot Magicians by contrast had won ten state titles, the most in history. Minot had last won in 1971, when then-sophomore Wayne Whitty scored at the buzzer to defeat Jamestown. Against Fort Yates, Whitty, now a senior mainstay, was weakened by a sprained ankle and the flu. Fort Yates started out nervously and trailed 18 to 13 after one quarter. Their nerves steadied and the score evened at halftime, 32 all. Wyman Archambault scored only two first-half points. Minot played a solid second half and led by eight with only 43 seconds to go. That’s when Wyman Archambault stepped up his game. He made two free throws with 42 seconds left; then a teammate intercepted a pass and scored with :28 seconds remaining; then Fort Yates stole another pass and scored with :21 seconds left. Minot then turned the ball over again, and Fort Yates had the ball at mid-court. With just two seconds left on the clock, Archambault ran to the left side near the top of the key, caught the inbounds pass and launched a turn-around shot that arced up high, “apparently off-course,” but it banked in off the backboard at the buzzer to tie the game at 68. In overtime, the Fort Yates crowd chanted, “Archambault . . . Archambault . . . Archambault, and the senior sparkplug responded, making four points at critical times during the three overtimes. In the end, Fort Yates won by one point, 79 to 78, making the Standing Rock Reservation team the smallest school to become Class A champs.

jodcon Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Fort Yates 79-Minot 78, 3 OT's, 1973. I think that was when Minot had Wayne Whitty, that kid could play. Another classic championship game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalsioux07 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 They haven't won the big dance but they have been highly competitive (except for the past 2-3 weeks) and very fun to watch. Just be glad that our home town has a highly competitve team to root for...that we can be proud of. Don't get greedy. Get greedy? He has been part of the Sioux coaching staff since 2000 and Head Coach since 2004 and makes close to $500,000.00 a year and the fans expecting a National Championship, even just one, during his tenure is greedy? I disagree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same in Montana, the hoops teams are great but the football teams are terrible, some schools have dropped football because they can't get enough kids to go out.
