Where:  At the “Double C” – The Bismarck Civic Center 

Why:  To find out for yourselves if the Mandan girls can win a 6th straight state title.  To find out if the queens of basketball are still on top of their game without the “Double K” threat.  Will there be new queens crowned?  On the boys’ side, find out if “the Legend” Steve Miller can lead his gentlemen Demons to the West region promised land.  Or, will new legends be born?  See if Luke Martinez will be crowned Mr. Basketball.
