PREVIEW: Idaho looked dominant for stretches on Thursday night against Southern Utah, eventually rolling to a 79-67 win.  Victor Sanders was special on the night, tying a career-high with 33 points, including 23 in the second half.  The Vandal frontcourt also played a major role in the victory, scoring 39 points and shooting nearly 60 percent from the floor while dominating on the glass.
 
Northern Arizona fell at Eastern Washington, 84-62, on Thursday.  The Lumberjacks got great contributions from their starting five but the bench struggled to keep up with the Eagles.
 
LAST MEETING: The two teams split their meetings last season, with the home team winning each.  Sanders went nuts in the first meeting, setting his career-high with 33 points on 9-of-13 shooting, to go along with four boards and four assists, as Idaho took the 83-76 win.  The Sherwood Brothers shined as well, with Chad Sherwood scoring 14 in his new starting role and Nate picking up 12 off the bench.  The game was the first without point guard Perrion Callandret.
 
The second meeting went to NAU, as the Lumberjacks squeaked out a 72-70 win in Flagstaff.  Idaho was playing without both Callandret and Sanders on that night.
