DAKOTA SHOWCASE
A handful of teams are 2-0 at the Dakota Showcase at Augustana College in Sioux Falls. Metro Stars Black, Dakota Hardwood Threat; IBCA Select I; ECI West Gold all look like they are headed to the championship round. Here is the schedule for today and the result page.
KELO TV in Sioux Falls has a report and video of the activity.
My advice would be to check here for details. I will be headed to SF today and this site will have more details than the Gabcast channel. I will not be phoning it in, but will be reporting on the games in the out & abouts later in the week.
