Vandals Earn Bye in Reno
Box Score CEDAR CITY, Utah – A late push helped propel Idaho (17-12, 12-6 BSC) past Southern Utah (5-26, 3-15 BSC), 84-75, on Saturday afternoon. With the win, the Vandals lock up a first round bye in Reno, and will finish in a tie for third in the Big Sky Conference standings.
Idaho will get the No. 4 seed in the Big Sky Tournament due to tiebreakers. The Vandals await the final games of the night to see who their first opponent will be. Due to Northern Colorado not playing in the Big Sky Tournament, the top-five teams will receive a bye, with four and five meeting in the quarterfinals on Thursday.
