GREAT FALLS — With the high school winter sports season set to begin, schools are taking to the hardwood. The CMR Rustlers boys basketball team is gearing up for the new slate which tips off next Friday and Saturday.

Head coach John Cislo said the intensity has been high in the limited number of practices thus far.

"Mistakes are there, but it's easier to fix when at least they're working hard. We can stop and kind of talk about it," Cislo said during CMR's practice at the high school Tuesday. "Even though we only return a couple players that got a lot of time last year, it actually feels like an experienced group because a lot of those kids from the JV team last year, we did sprinkle some kids in there."
