Agreed - DLB has size, speed, and shooters - plus Doug Wagner as a coach who always has his kids play with a lot of basketball sense. They have everything they need to be a state contender.
Dunseith also has size and a dead-on shooter in Adam Hunt - the only thing they lack is speed - which hurt them against Westhope-Newburg.
Minot Ryan is strictly a shooting team - if they are hot - they are tough to beat - if they are not - they could lose to any of the top teams in this region.
Velva is the sleeper - they played well at the beginning of the year - fizzled a little mid-season - but recently played Watford down to the wire and had to foul in the last minute - and then beat Minot Ryan.
Kenmare is also a very solid team - with one of the top posts in the region with Heidel -
Westhope-Newburg - has a lot of balance, team speed, and their defense is amazing to watch - this team AVERAGES 18 steals a game.
IT is going to be a fun tournament to watch.
