    Men's Basketball Forward Tom Lunde Ends Playing Career

    FARGO, N.D.--North Dakota State men’s basketball forward Tom Lunde will not continue his playing career with the Bison in the 2007-08 season. NDSU head coach Saul Phillips made that announcement today.

      Riley, a business administration major who will be a junior next season, plans to practice with the team. He cannot, however, compete in games in November and December.

      A 6-foot-6, 210-pounder from Platte City, Mo., Riley averaged more than 12 minutes per game the past two seasons. . . . (read more)
