TP stepping up big time.

Men look good. 10 assist in first half. All without Battle.
Women look horrible.

WBB — Gracie needs some stickum. Only listed with two TOs, but I think that’s kind. She needs to concentrate on “ball security.” Darian looks not herself as well. Not good, 15 down at the half to a team that lost to Nevada. We just look out of sorts all over. Gandy is a big part of that lead going 4-5 from three. Tiana Johnson (Tryg’s daughter) is now at Idaho, from Sacramento, and gives them more size against the Marahs of this world. Hope halftime helps, I don’t think this game is over yet.

Women always have trouble with Idaho...especially there. Must be the three point shooting.

Idaho shooting lights out from the arc sealed our fate, but our confused play was the genesis of our own demise. Our bread and butter seems to be the free throw line. In spite of the hacks, hip-checks, and shoulders thrown by Idaho, we aren’t going to win only getting to the line 4 times.

As expected the Cat men win although Idaho hit enough shots in the second half to keep it from being a total blowout. They couldn't stop Belo or Osobor down low, I suspect the same will be said of many Big Sky opponents. EWU and UM having a good one in Missoula.
