Saturday, Jan 9th, 2016 Dickinson High School Wrestling Room 979 13th Ave West, Dickinson, ND. 2016 opened with the usual Frozen Tundra Tournament.  Jan 9th was the date for Josh Jahner, Ryan, Pineapple Dave, Sensei Nick and Ryder to all compete.  Bismarck Gentle Ways' Maryse was a great help running scoreboard, along with Roughrider Judo's own "Three Shido" Steve, Chon and Erich.  Sensei Ficek was primary Referee.  Fargo provided no competition, but Bismarck Gentle Ways brought down a strong showing of Juniors and adults to the Shiai, and Williston sent a novice named Chris.  So we had 18 competitors this year.  After two divisions of adults and juniors, each division tried a "Last Man Standing" Open.  Once you won, you stayed out until defeated.
