1- Richland
2- Thompson (I think they will make their first ever state tournament)
3-EKM
4- Langdon
5. Shiloh
7. Beulah
8. Powers Lak
On region 2, I agree.. (3) Thompson--Schwabe, Hughes, & Overby (1) HCV --Henningsgard

Lamoure will be the best team in the region. They lose 0 players and are coming off of a good season. Kramer will be best player in region. He can shoot it, play inside, play outside, and can defend. I’m thinking he averaged over 20 and he was only a junior. Klever is a solid pass first PG who will run the show. Ness is a quirky player who finds ways to score inside and out. They showed at the end of the season that they can compete and will be the team to beat.
Carrington will be down but not out. They are coming off of their first state tournament appearance in 8 years and lose their best player and first team all stater in Bickett as well as two solid players in Vetter and Shipman. They return Rosenau, a good inside presence, Smith, a good ball handler and defender, and Nelson, a well rounded player who will be solid. I predict them to struggle a little early on but come tournament time they will be solid.
EKM will also be a solid team. They lose their best player and first team all stater in Lane Hanson. He was a huge part of what they did on both offensive and defensive end. If he can be replaced by 6’7” Entzi then I believe they will be top 3 in the region. They return a very solid lineup with Huber, younger Huber, Matthern, Hagen, and Zahn.
Kidder County will be a top 5 team in region and will compete during tournament time. They return Austin Schmidt, one of the most well rounded players and arguably the best scorer for next year. They also return a good spot up shooter in Pfaff and a solid defender in Fallgatter.

I think Carrington will be the Region Championship again next year. KC was a disappointment this year IMO, underachieved. Oakes and SZ should also be pretty competitive. R3 this year was extremely week in boys, next year they should be a little more competitive overall.

I think it’ll come down to Carrington, Lamoure, or EKM. Depending on how offseasons go, how players develop, and other factors such as injuries all play a big part. It’s hard for me to predict a region champion this early while keeping those factors in mind.

I have had the opportunity to watch some aau team camp and summer ball if Thompson gets ANY COACHING and their guards pass first they are favorites in the region and state the Young big post is an absolute dude I think is about 6’5 and legit. My new favorite player n the state. Watched him play about 10 times last yr wasn’t sure why didn’t play in region “maybe hurt?” Great touch. Range and a board machine. Thompson has played outside in in the coaches regime any “chance” we can get that kid a few miles south?

I watched Langdon Fw and St. john this past summer in the DL elks tourney and Devils lake HS league. seen them play at lake region team camp and fw team camp. Four winds been Langdon couple times and St.john won the devils lake league over fw. It should be another good year of Region 4 basketball.
