Though we'd already been crowned "Conference Champions" with our 1st place finish during the regular season, our loss last night to Minot State in the DAC Post-Season Tournament Championship Game last night was a tough one to swallow.
We led by 10 at halftime and played an outstanding first half. But, after extending the lead to 13 with 14 minutes to go, Minot State slowly made their way back into the game, and tied the score at 85 with 10 seconds to go. And, as is one of the most difficult ways to lose, they hit a last-second contested shot to win, 87-85.
Jake Holen led all scorers with 31 points, and Kyle Iverson added a double-double with 25 points and 11 rebounds. Iverson also had 3 monster dunks, which brought the crowd of over 2,000 to their feet each time.
And, though the official word will not be announced until Wednesday, it appears that we will still receive a berth into the NAIA National Tournament, which will take place March 12-18 down in Point Lookout, MO.
