MINOT, N.D. – Minot State University will host a Hometown Pride Ice Cream Social during opening day of the Class B Region 6 Boys Tournament on Monday, March 7.
Ice cream will be available for all tournament attendees between games one and two and again between games three and four, from approximately 4-4:30 p.m. and 7-7:30 p.m., in the southwest corner of the third floor of the Minot State Dome.
“We at Minot State feel very lucky to host the Region 6 Tournament as it brings so many families from neighboring communities right here to campus,” said Cole Krueger, Minot State marketing director. “The Hometown Pride Ice Cream Social is a way for us to say thanks for bringing so much pride and energy to the Dome.”
The quarterfinals kick off at 3 p.m. between Rugby High School and the Our Redeemer’s Knights, with the Surrey Mustangs taking on Velva High School during the second game. Game three will begin around 6 p.m. with the Bishop Ryan Lions facing off against the TGU Titans. The final game of the night features Bottineau High School and Mohall-Lansford-Sherwood High School.
All schools involved in the Region 6 Tournament come from Minot State’s Hometown Pride Scholarship area. This new $1,000 scholarship is exclusively for May 2022 high school graduates from Minot and regional schools located in North Dakota’s northwestern counties.
“Our hometown communities have been our backbone for over a century,” said Krueger. “The Hometown Pride Scholarship is an exciting way for us to give back to Minot and surrounding communities.”
