FARGO — North Dakota State’s basketball teams are a combined 15-0 in Summit League play so far this season, with the women rated No. It’s been Bison women’s basketball that’s never quite grabbed a foothold in Division I. In the lean years of Bison women’s basketball, there might’ve been one or two if NDSU even dared hold a “media availability.”Koenen is the main attraction, a dominant 6-foot-3 forward who is averaging 18.9 points and 11.2 rebounds. MORE BISON WOMEN'S BASKETBALL COVERAGE:The Bison drew 2,928 fans for a midday game against Concordia in November, but 2,300 of them were schoolchildren let in for free. I think our team is bringing a lot of energy and I think the fans just kind of play off that and keep it rolling.”The next month is going to be unlike any other basketball season in recent memory.
