The Orediggers are ready to hit the court this weekend, looking to build on last week's impressive wins. Excitement is in the air at Valley Bank Arena!
Get ready for a thrilling weekend of Oredigger sports, where the undefeated football team and basketball squads are looking to keep the momentum rolling.
It has truly been a historic season for Montana Tech Basketball. On the men's side of things, the Diggers are Frontier Conference regular season and tournament champions for the fourth year in a row and the women have been chosen as an at-large selection for the NAIA National Tournament which begins Thursday. Both teams will be headed to 4-team pods, the men to Santa Clarita, California where they will face first-round opponent Southern Oregon University, and the women to Madison, South Dakota where they will meet Dakota State. The winners of the pods will advance to the tournament's final site which is Kansas City, Missouri for the men and Sioux City, Iowa for the women.
Thursday was a big day for all things basketball at Montana Tech as the NAIA held their selection show for the men's and women's national tournament and both the men and the women will be bringing the copper, green and white to the big dance.
