Hayden Diekhans is Montana Tech’s do-it-all two-way anchor
In the 2025-26 season, Hayden Diekhans was the Orediggers’ engine: 13.8 points, 7.3 rebounds, 78 assists, 42 steals, and team-high minutes, earning first-team All-Frontier, all-region, and NAIA third-team All-America honors. He’s the rare forward who impacts both ends every night, with a reputation for toughness, versatility, and defensive disruption; in 2024-25 he also led Tech in scoring and rebounding while taking home Frontier Player of the Year and Defensive Player of the Year. If you want a high-IQ, high-motor frontcourt glue guy who produces and sets a tone, he’s your kind of player.
