Braves start hoops season with convincing win

After a winless 2023-24 season, the Flathead Braves wasted no time picking up their first win on their season opener, 73-49 over the visiting Great Falls Bison Friday night.

Braves head coach Dan Trageser got his first win as head coach in his second season with the team, a victory that was much needed for a program he is trying to rebuild. 

“This is a first win for a lot of our kids, and they earned it,” Trageser said. “We went through a lot of adversity last year and for them to come out and win the home opener I am very proud of them.”
