University of Providence Argos Women’s Basketball
The Argo women are playing in the NAIA National Championship tonight at 6 in Sioux Falls, SD. It can be viewed on ESPN 3 which I can access through my ESPN + subscription. What a great run by these ladies to get to their first ever championship experience.

Wow! A lot of Montana teams (especially WBB) have advanced to the higher echelons of about everything below D-I. I guess I’m unconvinced about Montana not producing good players, or being hard to recruit to.

Just checked the UP roster and they have 6 players from MT, 9 from WA, and 1 from Oregon. That shows to me that MSU did quite well in hiring a coach like Logie with such strong ties to the Pacific Northwest. Good luck to UP, hope they win it!Bobcat4Ever wrote: ↑Tue Mar 26, 2024 4:00 pmWow! A lot of Montana teams (especially WBB) have advanced to the higher echelons of about everything below D-I.

Lady Argos
Congratulations to the University of Providence Lady Argo basketball team beating Carrol in the final 4 to make the NAIA National Championship. They came up short, 57-53 to Dordt University. Amazing to see the Great Falls lady in the chipper!

Re: University of Providence Argos Women’s Basketball
It was disappointing that they lost, but what a great run they made in the post-season. They lost 2 out of 3 to Carroll during the regular season, but then beat them in the Frontier championship game and the national semi-finals. They beat the #1 seed in the national tournament in the quarter-finals, and they had won 10 games in a row, 7 in the post-season, before losing in the title game. It was also great to see them do so well, with so many Montana girls on their roster. I hope the community of Great Falls does something special to honor them at some point. As a GF resident, it made me very proud, but it also makes me wish I had gone to one of their games this season.

Re: University of Providence Argos Women’s Basketball
Dordt, who Providence played, is located in Sioux Center Iowa which not very far from Sioux City where the game was played. So they probably had a huge home fan advantage. Interesting thing about Dordt is it is the same denomination a most of the kids who go to Manhattan Christian so there's a lot of MCHS kids who have gone there and a lot of Dordt grads who have taught and coached at MCS. There was an MCHS grad on Dordt's roster who played in that game. Anyway-great season for both teams and sounds like it was a great game.John K wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 9:58 amIt was disappointing that they lost, but what a great run they made in the post-season.
