M. Basketball: Thousands of reasons to celebrate

The Idaho men’s basketball team did not disappoint the home crowd in Cowan Spectrum Saturday night, defeating Sacramento State 81-67.

Junior guard Victor Sanders led the charge of Idaho, scoring 31 points and sinking five 3-pointers. Sanders became the sixteenth player in Vandal history to earn 1,000 career points.

Sanders said the landmark, while important, did not distract him from the current goal.

“It’s a blessing to be the sixteenth person in Idaho’s history to reach that plateau. But I’m never satisfied,” Sanders said. “Right now, I’m just focused on my teammates and winning a Big Sky Championship.
