Ok I'm from finley and the MPCG finley games were never really competitive, I will give you that, but that doesnt mean that they werent good rivalry games. And as for the comment "most of MPCG's players from the mid 90s were from finley. Well they had 3 "Darrin, Chuck and Leah Klabo" they attended finley but left b4 high school, you give us Darrin and Chuck Klabo for those 4 years and Finley might have been a decent team. Baldwin more recently never went to school in finley, but is techinically in Finley's SD, but i wont say too much about that because he never came too school in Finley. I will have to say the best rivalry in Class B is back in the day of Eddie, Hillsboro vs Mayville was great. And i remember the district championship game when mayville lost too hillsboro. Great game, great rivalry

Mayville and Hillsboro is one of the states greatest rivalries, but the Cavalier North Border rivalry is a very good one also. They always seem to play close, no matter how much better the other team is. Many of the kids that go to school in North Border have cousins that go to school in Cavalier and visa versa. It can get pretty heated on the court between players, generally because they just don't like each other.

Velva vs. Sawyer

They coop for football and then bang it out on the hardwood. Can't say either team has ever done anything of any notarity beyond their own gyms but it is always a decent rivalry. This past year Velva basically told Sawyer to coop all or none and Sawyer took none so they weren't a part of the football program. This year could be a tough feelings type of game. Most of the decent football players open enrolled to Velva hard feelings for that. Unfortunately, I think the kids get along well enough, just the parents have a hard time with giving it up. A lot of pride in a small town basketball program and any other athletics.

Well before the co-op, Starkweather and Munich were fairly good ones.  Now after the co-op, it most definitely Langdon due to the size difference.  It usually brings a full house to the tiny gyms up North and its always fun to watch a possible upset.

A matchup of any sport thats always good to see is The Minot Ryan Lions and the Velva Aggies. They brought nearly 4,000 people into the MSU dome last year when each team only had one lose and was playing for bragging rights in the region. Ryan ended up thumping an unready Velva team but I stayed around because both teams were playing physical and giving it 100% reguardless of the score.

The best were two schools on the same reservations or in the same town or close to, there was bragging rights at hand.  I remember FW vs Warwick were always packed.   It was tough to play in Warwick with their barn of a gym but the atmosphere was awesome.

I would say Minnewaukan-Leeds and Four Winds are a pretty good rivalry, have been for a number of years and they continue to battle it out every year.

Minnewaukan-Leeds and Wells County would be another big rivalry in region 4.

Man, I agree with that one also!  They always had our number!  I hated playing there or them coming in, The crowd was usually hostile and big!  In my years of playing we could never get past them, even when our record was better!

Wilton vs. Wing is always a big deal and they even met in the state tournament in 2001.

 

Wilton - Washburn is another big rivalry in the middle of the state.

You are absolutely right here. Velva v. Ryan's biggest rivalry game is probably the football game, but the rest of the sports are great rivalry games as well.  The football game always draws a huge crowd.

Maddock vs. Leeds??  Where are you from Diamond D??  I don't think Maddock has beat Leeds since 92 and none of the games since have even been close.  I don't think that counts as a rivalry.

I would have to say in the eastern part of the state Cavalier and North Border is a big time rivalry.
MPCG and Hillsboro has always been and always will be a big game every time they play.
Also I would have to say Langdon and Munich back in the 70's-90's were a huge rival with Jack Demaine vs. Charlie Jordan.
