Men’s Basketball: A Thunderbird Scare

The Idaho men’s basketball hit the road Thursday and found a way to win at Southern Utah, taking down the Thunderbirds 80-76.

“I thought we had a number of guys step up and have really good games,” Idaho head coach Don Verlin said in a news release. “I thought BJ Blake was probably as good as he’s been, both offensively and defensively, in a Vandal uniform. I thought Jordan Scott was excellent tonight again. He made a couple of mistakes on McGee, but he did a real nice job for us.”

Idaho took control of the game early in the contest, nabbing a 24-12 advantage with eight minutes left in the opening half.
