Have you heard about the Montana Tech basketball teams? They're making waves in the national polls and turning heads with their impressive records.

Excitement is in the air as both Montana Tech basketball teams make their mark this season, with winning streaks that have fans buzzing with pride.

Hayden Diekhans had 23 points and 11 rebounds, and the top-seeded Montana Tech Mens Basketball Team turned a 4-point halftime lead into a 19-point blowout of the second-seeded University of Providence Argos in the championship game of the 2025 Frontier Conference Basketball Tournament which wrapped up at the Pacific Steel and Recycling Four Seasons Arena on Tuesday evening.

Some nights you've just got it and tonight, Michael Ure had it. Montana Tech's 6'7 sophomore forward was simply unstoppable, putting up a career-high 35 points, 24 of them from behind the three-point line, as the Orediggers lambasted MSU-Northern 89-54 Thursday night at Kelvin Sampson Court.

Montana Tech basketball returns home tonight and what has rarely been the case recently, both the men's and women's teams are looking to rebound after a sweep last weekend at the hands of the University of Providence. The women suffered their fourth loss in a row, 65-53 while the men had a six-game winning streak snapped, 70-59.

The NAIA released the third edition of the Men's Basketball Coaches Top 25 Poll, with Montana Tech moving up to No.7.
