Memories and shot clocks

Tomorrow’s Thursday and that means prep columns from me and North Dakota preps beat writer Heath Hotzler.

Heath’s column will talk about some of the interesting things he’s seen on Jan. 20 throughout the years including a game where North’s Tyler Koenig scored 19 points, 15 rebounds and seven blocks in a 74-48 win over Valley City in 2001.

My column will also talk about basketball, specifically, the use of the shot clock in Minnesota.

I asked area coaches like Moorhead girls coach Jim Kapitan and Barnesville coach Todd Henrickson if Minnesota needs to institute the shot clock all the time and the affects the shot clock could have on a game and potentially, a program.

Look for that and area prep standings in tomorrow’s Forum.
