Montana dominates the boards, rallies to spoil UND's home opener

GRAND FORKS — UND shot at least 40% from 3-point range for the second game in a row on Saturday night. Yet again, the Fighting Hawks couldn’t translate it into a win. Montana spoiled the Hawks’ home opener at the Betty Engelstad Sioux Center with an 80-71 win. The Grizzlies dominated the glass, outrebounding UND 43-25. "We did some nice things," head coach Paul Sather said. "We forced some turnovers, they totally went away from ball screens in the second half, we got stops we needed, we just didn't get the rebounds." UND led by 11 points with 9:31 to go in the second half, but Grizzlies senior guard Jordan Clark took over. Clark finished with 30 points and helped sparking the second-half rally, scoring 20 points in the second frame. He scored 12 points in the final 6:20 alone, sparking the rally. "He's a really good player," Sather said.
