Hayden Diekhans had 23 points and 11 rebounds, and the top-seeded Montana Tech Mens Basketball Team turned a 4-point halftime lead into a 19-point blowout of the second-seeded University of Providence Argos in the championship game of the 2025 Frontier Conference Basketball Tournament which wrapped up at the Pacific Steel and Recycling Four Seasons Arena on Tuesday evening.

Michael Ure had 21 points and seven rebounds, Brayden Koch added 15 points and three assists, and the No. 6-ranked Montana Tech men's basketball team remained unbeaten with a 75-69 win over No. 4 Arizona Christian at the Coyote Classic.

Montana Tech's men's basketball team will begin the season as a top-10 squad in the NAIA.

After winning their third straight regular season title and tournament championship, Montana Tech Head Coach Adam Hiatt received his second Frontier Conference Coach of the Year nod to go with three first team all-conference, an honorable mention, and two players of the year honors.

It's not been often as of late that we have been able to say that the Orediggers are looking for redemption against a Frontier Conference opponent. Montana Tech's mens team is 8-1 in league play and are riding a 4-game winning streak. Over the last 4 games they have beaten every opponent by 18 or more. Their last setback? January 20th against the University of Providence,70-59 in Great Falls. Tonight, the Argos come to Butte for a conference doubleheader that starts with the women's game at 5pm and you could say that both teams are looking for a bit of revenge.

Some nights you've just got it and tonight, Michael Ure had it. Montana Tech's 6'7 sophomore forward was simply unstoppable, putting up a career-high 35 points, 24 of them from behind the three-point line, as the Orediggers lambasted MSU-Northern 89-54 Thursday night at Kelvin Sampson Court.

We knew going in that there are going to be no easy games this season in the Frontier Conference on either the men's or women's side of things and after last weekend's openers against Rocky Mountain College, the Montana Tech Orediggers know that every game is a potential war. The men won in overtime while the women ground out a one-point victory over the Battlin' Bears. This week, the Diggs hit the road with MSU-Northern on Thursday and Carroll College on Saturday.

The basketball game between the University of Montana and Montana Tech has been rescheduled. The men’s basketball game was originally scheduled to be played Friday, December 8th at 7:00 PM but has been pushed back a day to December 9th at 1:00 PM.

If anything, it's going to be an interesting couple of weeks for the Montana Tech men's basketball team. Sure, we are just entering the final weeks of the nonconference schedule, but the next two games in particular are of unique importance. The #7 Orediggers (6-1) will host Concordia University of Edmonton at 5pm this Friday, December 1, and then hit the road for a game the following Friday against the University of Montana Grizzlies

The Montana Tech Men's Basketball team is back in action tonight and tomorrow as the Montana Tech Fall Classic tips off amid an incredibly busy weekend for Digger Athletics. The Montana Tech men will take the court tonight at 7pm at Kelvin Sampson Court against Dickenson State University in the nightcap of a doubleheader which will tip-off at 5pm with the University of Providence Argos taking on the LC State Warriors
