The Idaho men’s basketball team finished the regular season with a 82-68 victory over Idaho State Saturday.
The victory clenched a third place finish in conference play and as the team enters the Big Sky Conference tournament this week with a first-round bye.
“I thought we played really well and Idaho State is a good basketball team,” Idaho head coach Don Verlin said. “They were scrappy and they played that matchup zone all night long. I thought we did what we had to do to get it done tonight.”
The Vandals had a slow start in the first half, as the two programs exchanged the lead every other minute.
