Some quotes from the article
Miller, the team's shooting guard the last couple of seasons, started at the point, a spot that was occupied last year by Khy Kabellis, who since transferred. He didn't take his first shot until late in the first half, instead taking on more of a running-the-offense role.
"It was encouraging to see Cam, I thought he was aggressive going downhill and getting to the free throw line," Richman said.
Miller led the Bison with five assists and finished with seven points. Ward looked the part of a top returning playmaker and led the Bison with 16 points along with true freshman guard Tyree Eady, who's making a bid to play right away.
"That (decision) hasn't been made yet," Eady said. "Hopefully soon that will sort out."
Ward had 12 of his points in helping the Bison take a 43-23 lead at half. A 14-3 run including nine straight early in the second half put it away.
NDSU started Paul Miller, Ward and Jared Samuelson at guard and Dylan Miller and Deng Geu at the forward spots. Because it was an exhibition, the Bison could play their entire roster without the risk of any true freshmen losing a redshirt. As usual, a couple gave Richman a few things to think about.
Rocky Kreuser, a 6-9 forward from White Bear Lake, Minn., came in for a quick five points in the first half, including a 3-pointer.
"I think we have some questions and conversations to be had," Richman said.
Bison senior forward A.J. Jacobson, who is not fully healed from a stress fracture in his foot, did not play.
