MOSCOW, Idaho – The 2015-16 season was one to remember for Idaho men’s basketball. The team battled through adversity to post its best record in more than 20 years, showing all along what it means to be a Vandal.
It was an up-and-down season, but the Vandals never lost sight of their championship goals. Idaho got out to a great start, beginning the season 4-1 with its only loss coming to eventual WAC champion CSU-Bakersfield. The Vandals ran into the toughest stretch in the schedule next, eventually leveling off at 5-5 on the season.
The turning came point came in early December, when local rival Washington State made the quick trip over to the Cowan Spectrum.
