MSU Northern

For the first time since 1993, the Orediggers of Montana Tech have won the 2022-2023 George Bandy Memorial All-Sports Award.

The Women’s games this past weekend added some more ‘space’ between the top 3 teams in the conference and the rest of the Frontier.

We stroll into a Monday, with another crazy week of Frontier Conference basketball behind us.

Oredigger women hold off MSU-Northern Thursday night in Butte.

The Montana Tech Orediggers got past MSU-Northern in Frontier Conference Mens Basketball Thursday night, but it took 2 overtimes to do it.

The Montana Tech Men are in the midst of a winning streak. The Diggs have won their last 6 games overall, 8 of their last 10, and most importantly, their last 2 conference games.

The Lady Saints have won the last 17 meetings between the two. Montana Tech’s last win over Carroll was a 78-64 Frontier tournament contest on February 28, 2017. As of the last coaches poll, Carroll is ranked #11 in the country.

If week 1 of the men’s Frontier Conference schedule taught us anything, it is that each and every game is going to be incredibly important, and that is going to be awfully hard to win on the road.

Welcome to another wild weekend in the Frontier Conference. The women’s side of the equation started with 3 teams ranked in the top 30. Carroll College the highest at #9 in the country, Western at #21, and Rocky Mountain College at #29.

Coming into Saturday’s games there were 3 teams that still had a possible shot at a playoff game. College of Idaho, number 13 in the country sitting on top of the conference with 1 loss. Montana Tech at # 20 in the country, and Carroll College #24, both with 2 losses on the year had hope, but they had to win out. Peri...
