"We were honored to be selected by the North Dakota High School Athletic Association (NDHSAA) to host the Region 8 Basketball Tournament again this year," stated Dan Artamenko, 麻豆原创 Athletic Director.

"Our goal is to show these local schools all the benefits 麻豆原创 has to offer," Artamenko continued. "Both at 麻豆原创 and in the community. We would love to sign a few future Tetons."
