W. Basketball: Playing outside the line
The Idaho women’s basketball team collected another victory over Portland State Thursday night. The win marked head coach Jon Newlee’s 142nd win — tying him with Pat Dobratz for the most wins of all time.
Idaho hit 17 threes, one less than the record. The Vandals came back from a 15-point deficit in the first quarter to secure a 72-66 win.
The Vandals were unable to convert a 3-pointer until sophomore guard Mikayla Ferenz hit a deep shot with a minute left in the quarter.
“It was crazy the way we started. I do not know. I guess we have not seen a zone all year,” Newlee said. “Once we got the attacking mindset things went much better.”
