Griz grab Dan Beaudin off the football team
With the injury to Brian Qvale, the Griz are looking to sure up their bench by adding tight end Dan Beaudin. Only news I have on this comes from the Missoulian.
The Griz have also buttressed their thin bench by recruiting Dan Beaudin from the Griz football team. Beaudin, a 6-foot-5, 240-pound tight end, earned all-state honors in basketball for two years at Class C Noxon.How does this type of thing come up? Does Dan go to Tinkle or did someone tell Tinkle about Dan? Anyone?
“He's up for the challenge,” Tinkle said of Beaudin, who practiced with the Griz on Friday and will suit up Saturday.
The Griz can use all the big men they can get to deal with NAU center Kyle Landry. Landry is second in the league in scoring at 17.7 ppg, and third in rebounding at 8.3 a game. Josh Wilson fuels the Jack attack at the point, averaging 11.3 points and a league-best 5.8 assists a game.
