MOSCOW, Idaho - Idaho defeated NAIA opponent Evergreen St. 109-55 for the largest win of the Alex Pribble era. 

HOW IT HAPPENED 
The Vandals' offense came out hot, scoring their first nine points from behind the arc, en route to a 15-0 run to open the game.  Feeding off the early momentum, UI would keep its foot on the gas, posting 30 in the opening 10 minutes. Idaho held a 56-17 lead at the break, with scoring being a total team effort as 10 different Vandals put points on the board in the first half. 

Freshman Jackson Rasmussen had a very efficient first 20 minutes of play, scoring 13 on perfect shooting from both the field and the charity stripe. 



The Idaho offense continued to click in the second half, with Kolton Mitchell connecting on a triple to push the score to 62-19 at the 19:00 mark. Mitchell finished with 13 points on the night, one of six scorers in double-figures, the third time Idaho has done so this season.



The final ten minutes concluded with both teams exchanging buckets, as each side put up 21 points. 

Idaho crossed the 100-point mark with just over five minutes to play, winning 109-55, in a game that was highlighted by a universal scoring outing, with every Vandal scoring at least one basket. 

UP NEXT
The Vandals will travel to San Luis Obispo on Sunday to take on Cal Poly. The game is set to tip off at 4:00 p.m. PT, and will air on ESPN+ and the Vandal Radio Network, as well as the Varsity Network app.
