The four-team classic will feature the Northern State University Wolves, University of Sioux Falls Cougars, Truman State University Bulldogs, and Chadron State College Eagles.

“Traditions make Thanksgiving one of the more popular times to gather at home,” added David Sandvig, senior vice president and chief relationship officer. “Hopefully a fun and entertaining series of games like this becomes a new tradition to gather at home court.”
The opening game of the day will feature Sioux Falls versus Chadron State. The Wolves will open the Dacotah Bank Classic at 7 p.m. on the 23, facing off against Truman State. Day two opens with Truman State versus Sioux Falls at 4 p.m., followed by the Wolves versus Chadron State.
“The support we get from Aberdeen and the surrounding communities is unmatched in South Dakota. Dacotah Bank has been a leader in the community with their support to Northern State University,” explained Paul Sather, head men’s basketball coach. “They love basketball around here, and the Thanksgiving holiday is a perfect time to host this event. We have a strong field of teams coming that will provide some terrific basketball to come out and watch.”
Northern went 36-4 overall reaching the NCAA Elite 8 and NCAA National Championship game. The Wolves won the NSIC Overall Championship, NSIC/Sanford Health Tournament Championship, and NCAA Central Region Championship in the process. Sioux Falls went 20-10 overall in 2017-18 and reached the second round of the NSIC/Sanford Health Basketball Tournament.

The Twins played last night’s game without second baseman Brian Dozier, who they traded to the Los Angeles Dodgers earlier that day. In exchange for the 31 year old second baseman, Minnesota received 2nd baseman Logan Forsythe, outfielder Luke Raley and left handed pitcher Devin Smeltzer. Dozier was drafted by the Twins in the 8th round of the 2009 draft and until last night had played his entire major league career with Minnesota, dating back to 2012.
