Conference Commentary
State Contender: Fargo Davies
Davies is one of a few favorites to win the state title this year as they have most their team back from a strong 15-16 season plus young talent going up through the program. There are bigs, ball handlers, wings, and everything else.
Top 10 in State Right Now: West Fargo, GFRR, Devils Lake, WF Sheyenne
We weren’t sure what GFRR was going to be but we like them more and more every day. They have the talent in the backcourt and on the wing to make a state run. But will they? West Fargo will still be good although there were senior graduation losses that will be tough to bounce back from and WF Sheyenne should make a jump this season. Devils Lake has been planning for this year for a very long time. High expectations.
Compete with Most: Fargo North, Fargo Shanley, Valley City
North will put up some huge numbers but they will need depth to step forward to get stops. Shanley will always be right there because of the way they play as a team. Valley City has a nice backcourt punch in Burchill and Rodrigues plus Nix in the frontcourt.
Rebuilding: Wahpeton, GF Central
Central has to get better after last year while Wahpeton had a tough year and they graduated a lot of guys that played.
