 Well, a local talent will be staying within the region to play basketball. Yesterday, BSU head coach Mike Boshi announced that Nevis Guard Griffin Chase has signed to play with the Beavers. The 6-3 guard was a letter winner on both the court and the football field and finished his Hoops career with over 2,200 points. Chase was selected as the Northland Conference MVP last season along with taking the Tigers to the state tournament in 2015 and this past season that now pushes the incoming route including class of the Beavers to 6 next year so BSU is getting a good one there. Yeah, good to see some local talent staying staying in the area. Yeah, absolutely best of luck to him.
