UM Western

The Frontier Conference was blindsided by another resignation earlier today.

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

Somehow, we only have one game left in the Frontier Conference regular season, and equally surprising the final game will not affect conference standings no matter what happens.

With the unbalanced schedule in the Frontier, the Diggs have already played Western twice at Straugh, and Thursday will be the Bulldog’s lone trip to Butte this year.

This will be the third and final regular season matchup between the Orediggers and Bulldogs, though they could certainly see one another in the tournament.

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.

Montana Tech is on the road for a battle with UM Western Saturday. The Bulldogs took the win in round 1, let's prepare for round 2.

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.

The Frontier Conference landed 9 players total on the AFCA Coaches’ All-America Team, 3 First Team, 1 Second Team, and 5 Honorable Mentions.
