Billings' Shrine Auditorium was the place to be on Saturday night for basketball fans. Those lucky enough to get in saw Pryor's Plenty Coups Warriors beat the Wibaux Longhorns, 77-72.
Plenty Coups fans, hailing from every district on the reservation, filled the gym and some waited as long as three hours to get a seat. Many children grabbed court side seats -- on the floor. The game had an electric atmosphere with fans stomping in the bleachers, cheering on their team and rattling not only the auditorium but the Wibaux team, too. When a Wibaux player stepped to the free throw line for a crucial shot late in the fourth quarter, the basketball hoop shook.
The Warriors built a 15 point lead by the end of the third quarter before delivering a wild finish in the fourth quarter when Plenty Coups players drew two technical fouls and Wibaux was able to sink a couple of three pointers. Wibaux tied the game 72-72 with 16 seconds left to play.
The Plenty Coups team, which has a long tradition of winning nail-biters, kept its poise to pull out the win and earn a trip to the Class C state finals in Butte.

Take some deep breaths. Give your hands something to fidget with, such as a cup of mint tea or a pencil. Now start thinking about your topic. This feeling is very good

The best formula for happiness is to be able to develop the ability to tolerate frustration , to have a personal involvement and commitment , and to develop self-confidence and self-esteem.

Usually, Quicksilver/Roxy makes me think back to 6th grade when all the cool kids were sporting it... but this collection? I just want to snuggle up in those sweaters with a mug of coffee in front of a fire... at least once it's not in the 90's anymore!
