Here's something to whet the appetite: Dan Hammer reporting on the cockiest team in ND since the 1989 Fargo South Bruins:

The Fargo North Class of 2002 reunion site (northspartans2002.com) is officially live!

This will be our central place for reunion details—schedule, locations, RSVP information, and last-minute updates—but it is also becoming something much bigger: a complete archive of the 2002 Spartans basketball season.

The goal is to document the entire run, game by game, with recaps, stats, newspaper articles, TV news clips, photos, and anything else I can dig up. Is that a little overkill? Absolutely. But if you know me, you know this is exactly the kind of project I can’t help but dive into.

More importantly, I think it will be pretty incredible to have all of this preserved—not just for us, but for our kids and future generations. Someday they can see what our team, our school, and that season meant to us—and maybe get a small reminder that their parents were, in fact, pretty cool once.

Or, if we’re being honest, maybe this is simply my personal attempt to convince my own growing children that I was once a cool-ass dude. Probably.

Please bookmark the site, subscribe for updates, and check back as more of the season archive comes together. And if you have photos, newspaper clippings, video, stats, stories, or anything else from that year, I’d love your help adding it to the collection.
