The Frontier Conference announces its 2024 Preseason Football Coaches Poll, which named the 2023 NAIA Semi-Finalist College of Idaho the favorite entering the 2024 season.
Some nights you've just got it and tonight, Michael Ure had it. Montana Tech's 6'7 sophomore forward was simply unstoppable, putting up a career-high 35 points, 24 of them from behind the three-point line, as the Orediggers lambasted MSU-Northern 89-54 Thursday night at Kelvin Sampson Court.
Montana Tech basketball returns home tonight and what has rarely been the case recently, both the men's and women's teams are looking to rebound after a sweep last weekend at the hands of the University of Providence. The women suffered their fourth loss in a row, 65-53 while the men had a six-game winning streak snapped, 70-59.
We knew going in that there are going to be no easy games this season in the Frontier Conference on either the men's or women's side of things and after last weekend's openers against Rocky Mountain College, the Montana Tech Orediggers know that every game is a potential war. The men won in overtime while the women ground out a one-point victory over the Battlin' Bears. This week, the Diggs hit the road with MSU-Northern on Thursday and Carroll College on Saturday.
The Montana Tech Orediggers have secured the Frontier Conference Regular Season Championship, and now it is time for the Frontier Tournament.
The Frontier Conference tournament will be held on the campus of the University of Providence, Friday November 10th, and Saturday November 11th.
The Orediggers will be hosting the Big Sky Volleyball Challenge with games today at two locations, Kelvin Sampson Court in the HPER Complex and the Maroon Activities Center, and tomorrow at the HPER. The challenge features two other Frontier Conference teams and six top programs from across the country.
The Preseason Coaches Poll for Frontier Conference Football has been released. This will be the first year with new football member Arizona Christian joining the Montana based conference.
