The Heart Butte boys' basketball team heads into this weekend's state tournament with an unbeaten record, a remarkable feat for a squad that has endured personal family losses while spending weeks on the road because of daunting winter weather conditions.
"I'm sure they miss their own beds, their own home, their own life and everything," said Heart Butte athletic director Ross Drishinski. "But I've heard their coach tell them several times 'this is a business trip.' They have a job to do and that's why they're here."
