The University of Wyoming Men’s basketball team kicked off their 2019-2020 season this Tuesday. They faced the Idaho State Bengals led by their newly-appointed head coach Ryan Looney. A good start was crucial for the Cowboys, who fell short of a Mountain West Championship last year due to injuries.
Coming into this matchup, the Cowboys were playing with a mixture of youth and experience. This included four returning starters and eight returning lettermen. But with only two seniors on the squad and eight freshmen, the question of inexperience at the college level was prevalent early in the match.
