January’s Pop Quiz With NDSU Athletes
Each month, we give a handful of NDSU athletes a pop quiz to uncover who they are underneath the Bison uniform. Here are the answers from January’s featured athletes.
Men’s Basketball: Cameron Hunter
Hunter has established himself as a long-range threat for the Bison. The Olathe, Kansas, native shot a high 42 percent from deep last season. Hunter played in six games this season before suffering a fractured left wrist. He was out of the lineup for some time but has since re-joined the Bison in the thick of Summit League play.
