My 2cents...went into the tourney pretty neutral, after the parade of champions, I think the right team won...not a hit on Kindred, just was a meh watching them walk in circles...
Some really good freshmen and sophs across the state in addition to who was at the B. Deng Deng is an elite defender at this level. What he does alone on the back of their press was unbelievable(would like to see his total rebounds, steals and blocks for the three games). I would think there will be very few players, if any, next year that Deng cant stop at the rim(not sure who'll have Peraza length and hops)
Could see FW, Minot and Bismarck all again Sat night next year.
Dome itself is a great venue for watching the games...however the B itself has lost its vibe there. It really hasn't changed much the last 10 -15 years there(same music etc), and the changes made are going in the wrong directions. I would rather see more inhouse video on the scoreboard of fans, etc, then the twitter feeds( I see Ben Dover and Mike Oxlong made an appearance lol). Some student sections Cottoneye Joe better than others and some towns Sweet Caroline better...There were other times it was dead quiet during time outs. This may be a product of the same teams making it and it just isn't a big deal anymore(What? on Grafton's student section Thurs???). Again something needs to change the vibe.
I'm ready for Bismarck and hoping for an appearance from the Belcourt Band
