The five played together on the Northern C team at the senior classic. The tournament was played at Billings Senior High School.
Every year, after the state tournaments have all been completed, comes a stretch of three weeks when we get one, or two chances to watch some great players compete in a series of All-Star Tournaments.
This past weekend in Billings featured a pair of tournaments highlighting the talents of eight Blaine County girls and boys.
Competing at the Treasure State Classic was Turner junior Sarah Billmayer, Harlem senior Skylee Dirden and Harlem junior L'Tia Lawrence.
The Treasure State Classic is primarily a senior tournament but when roster spots are available they ask select juniors to play. It is broken down by Class AA, A, B and C with each consisting of four teams, north, south plus two teams from Wyoming.
Lawrence and Dirden both played on the Northern B North team while Billmayer joined several Class B and C girls on the AA North team.
Also in Billings was Chinook seniors Cord Schneider, Brendan Edwards and Isaac Bell. Turner senior Cody Welsh and Hays/Lodge Pole senior Kyle Young Jr. The five Blaine County standouts joined forces to compete on the Class C North team at the Billings Hotel Senior Classic.
Like the Treasure State Classic the tournament is broken down into four teams from each class to compete.
