With just three games left on the schedule, the Idaho women’s basketball team is in the hunt for the Big Sky’s No. 1 seed in the conference postseason tournament.
But to earn first in the Big Sky Conference standings, the Vandals will have to get through second-ranked Eastern Washington.
“We certainly know that it will be a battle, so we need to come ready,” said Idaho head coach Jon Newlee.
The last time the two teams met, the Eagles used an explosive third quarter to sink the Vandals. Eastern Washington stretched its lead to 48-33 midway through the quarter.
