Yakama Loses

[heavesrock]

92-89 to Minot. Some questionable calls down the stretch but hey they had their run.

Too bad, a Minot loss would have helped the Xplosion, who won their third straight tonight.

Great win for Minot! Who were the refs? Doesn't matter . . . Minot is a solid squad and were the bettors choice to be the team to take down the Yaks. Sounds like Apex may have relinquished control of the S'Rockets to a local investor group . . . . that's okay, no reason for alarm. Minot has a nice fan base - Joe and Apex did a really good job of "launching" and making the S'Rockets the success they are in Minot . . .. the Magic City . . . but the upcoming heightened involvement from community business leaders will ensure a real future for the CBA and pro ball in Western ND (Bis-Man isn't ''West'' as far as I'm concerned). Hats off to the SnowRockets . ... I mean the SkyBears . .. . er, the Minot team .... for knocking off the Champs..... hats off also to Joe and Apex for making a good run at things here on the prairie. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- remember . . . you heard it here first!!!

look to be a good crowd, from what I see on their webcasts. But when I read their articles they never give numbers like they used to. Does anyone know what their average is?

[heavesrock]

Before last night's game Yakama was drawing 3,169 per game. THat has likely gone up with a good gate last night of over 3,600. Minot is drawing 1,420 per game.

I've never seen full crowd shots on the webcasts, but from what I have seen the Sun Kings don't seem to be inflating the attendance numbers too much.

I just found out the news at work. I nearly yelled in upset. If we were able to pull this last win out, we could have made it 18-20 wins.

Oh well. Gotta knock down the hero once in a while.

According to Paul, they "stunk". I guess they just didn't have it in their hearts last night.

Viva la Sun Kings!

I watched a lot of that game on webcast. They could not hit a lot of free throws at key times.
