Great point brought up by Chris Finch in SportsCenter interview today: The last two years have been joyless. Not just in Minnesota, but yet at the same time, ESPECIALLY in Minnesota. This is a community that has gone through a lot away from hoops in the past two years. Celebrate!

Starting in 2018, Marshall athletes Reece Winkelman and Trey Lance will be on opposite sides of the Dakota Marker rivalry game. Will be fun!

All-around student-athlete! Will be playing Big Ten football in the fall, was a state champion shot-putter last spring and was Camden Conference's South MVP in hoops, while also being one of the best in the state in FFA.
