Talented ND Native Makes An Extremely Surprising Announcement
I have written about this young Bismarck High alum a couple of times now - Treysen Eaglestaff
He is that kind of player, someone who steps on the basketball court and is immediately a force to reckon with - a young man who just about single-handedly destroyed poor South Dakota State by pouring in 51 points, leading the University of North Dakota to a 85-69 victory back in March. Here is the amazing part: he is ONLY a junior.

This was something that I had a question about
If you commit, can you back out of it? I always wondered that, and now I know. According to si.com Treysen was one of the most sought-after players in the country in the college basketball transfer - he made a commitment to play for South Carolina - " Just over two weeks later, the 6-foot-6 native of Bismarck, North Dakota, is once again one of the hottest commodities on the open market. On Wednesday, Eaglestaff informed Jeff Goodman that he de-committed from the Gamecocks"
By the way, in college basketball, a verbal commitment is non-binding and can be broken by either the player or the coach.
So the search continues - where will Treysen Eaglestaff end up at?
