Austin McCraven committed to play basketball at Dakota State next year!! Excited to see him continue his basketball career at the next level!!

ABW Cougars are well represented in the Pine-to-Prairie Conference this year!! Congrats to AndersTinjum, Cadyn Dahl, Austin and Mason Larson on their accolades, much deserved!!

Mason is a matchup nightmare for opposing teams with his ability to catch and shoot, attack the paint off the bounce and finish around the rim!! All those times harping on Mason to finish off 2 feet paid off in his final playoff push!! Hudl hudl.com/video/3/155581… #hudl

Anders combination of skill, length and athleticism make him a dynamic difference maker on the offensive end of the court! He also guarded the other teams best perimeter player! Excited to see him continue to develop this offseason as a big time prospect! hudl.com/v/2S16FQ

Brody made a living running the court and hanging out in the "dunker's spots" and really made teams pay when they gave extra attention to his teammates. He has a high motor and a work ethic that helps put him in places to make a difference!! hudl.com/v/2S1uaK

Cadyn has been entertaining to watch at the varsity level since his 8th grade season knocking down 3-pt shots!! An absolute game changer!! He battled through an injury his senior season and continued to make big time plays in big time games!! hudl.com/video/3/155581… #hudl

As a coach, it was easy to put the ball in Austin's hands with his ability to create for himself or his teammates! Austin has a unique ability to control a game through scoring, distributing, defending, rebounding or whatever else it took! hudl.com/video/3/155581… #hudl

It’s important to understand the offensive concept of “Swing Swing” or “Skip Swing” Avoid driving immediately after a drive. Look to shoot it or swing it so the second player that touches it gets the better driving angle.
