This game was circled as the return of Martin Breunig to Hec Ed, where he sometimes played in blowouts and did this. He might have still been part of the story following the game, but on the other end. His return was nothing close to triumphant. Malik Dime had a block party at Breunig's old flat but denied Breunig at the door multiple times in a several second span.
It was that type of game for Montana, and thus that type of game for the Washington Huskies. UW out athletic-ed the Grizzlies and won the foul shot battle as well, which was likely the most important of the two fights.
