Did you know that every year more than 4000 student athletes play basketball in South Dakota? 

Boys have had a state tournament for 114 years and girls for 51 years. That's nearly half a million players over time, and guess what? The Blackhawks have three state record holders!

Tonight at the Basketball game, Dakotaland will be giving four basketballs signed by our record holders. If you are in grades 3 to 8 and played basketball this year, put your name in for the drawing.
