Following a dramatic 48-46 victory over Dickinson Trinity for its second straight Region 7 tournament crown, the Beulah boys basketball team traveled to Minot for the Class B State Tournament, where the Miners placed sixth, one spot below their 2018 5th-place finish.
After Beulah dropped its final game of the year 56-53 to No. 5 New Rockford-Sheyenne, freshman guard Trey Brandt was named to the All-Tournament team on Saturday, March 16 at the Minot State Dome.
As the Miners fell to No. 2 Shiloh Christian 54-46 in the quarterfinals, Brandt led the team with 22 points, nine rebounds and three steals.
Beulah followed with a 71-44 consolation semifinal victory over Powers Lake, with Brandt netting 13 points on 3-for-5 shooting from three-point range. In Saturday's game, Brandt led the boys in blue and yellow again, earning 14 points and collecting four rebounds.
