Athlete of the Week
Our KSEN/K96 – Bozeman trophy athletes of the week are playing at peak levels right now and in both cases may have turned in the best games of the career.
In fact, Fairfield head coach Jordan Ratliff says he definitely believes that sr. Gavin Mills had the best game of his career, when the eagles took on lodge grass last Saturday in Billings.

Athlete of the Week
Our KSEN/K96 Bozeman Trophy athletes of the week are both “double double,” value to their teams.
Maybe you have noticed that the Simms tigers are off to a 9-0 start and leading the 10c district with a 7-0 conference record. Maybe you have also noticed that the tigers are getting a lot of contributions from a number of different players and one of those is senior Kaidin Thibert. Simms head coach Chris Daniel says Thibert has all the qualities of leadership, is a 4.0 student in the classroom and a work ethic to go with it. The coach calls his 6-2 post player “solid on the boards,” and definitely his teams’ leading rebounder. That could be enough right there, but he can also score and did it in bunches this past weekend. Thibert hit for 30-points against sunburst last Thursday, then 23 against power Friday night and 17 more in a win over Centerville on Saturday. We might call him a star among stars on a very promising Tiger basketball team.
