For those of you who like variety in your life, you certainly got that this weekend, as Leelee Bell and the Minot girls beat Logan Nisley and the Century Lady Pats for the WDA girls basketball title. Meanwhile, on the boys side, Darrin Mattern’s Patriots earned another West Region title by defeating Dean Winczewski and the Minot Magicians. With the win, Coach Mattern and the boys earned an automatic berth in the state Super A tournament in the Red River Valley, where Coach Mattern will go after a state title. Nobody can beat the Century boys basketball team. They still have no losses on the season. William Ware was high flying and dunking the ball against Minot. That means that Ryan Erickson and the Patriots have earned the number one seed out of the west. Only time will tell if the Patriots can earn a state title.
