I think this is what most people saw them doing coming into the season. I hope that they can keep this up and be successful through the postseason.

TM is also winning on the road. If they keep their composure they will be a contendor at state.

With nearly 3:4 assist to turnover ratio, the Bravettes need to take better care of the ball. Teams like Century and South will heckel them much more than Dickinson and Williston. They had around 20 turnovers against both these teams last weekend. However, their defense is forcing more turnovers than that. They also convert a lot of points off of those turnovers.

Unfortunately in high school basketball there are usually more turnovers than assist. While they may not have the ability to beat Century or South, they do have a chance. How long has it been since Belcourt made it to state?

I agree that TM could be a threat especially if they can establish their inside game and and stay out of foul trouble. Century was getting very strong in establishing their post play and becoming untouchable, but now with Buck back in the lineup, their three 6-footers are back shooting 3-pointers and just running the motion offense. It could get interesting.

I guess I was counting AJ Jacobs in the trio, but she is listed at 5'11".

Apparently TM didn't need to have incredible post play in their Feb 13 win by 14 over CHS.
