BOUNCE BACK: Dickinson State will look to bounce back from a tough 0-2 road trip last weekend with important contests against Dakota State and Bellevue this weekend … with NSAA Conference tournament seeding on the line DSU will look to have a strong bounce back performance at home … the Blue Hawks currently sit in a tie for fourth place with Valley City State, but are currently in line to lose the tiebreaker due to their loss at VCSU earlier in the year … the top four seeds in the conference will earn the right to host an opening round game at their gym, so seeding is extremely important
