Idaho Vandals vrs Portland Pilot's Sat. 11/20

Final, Pilots win 66-53!

Sikma has another moster game on the boards, with at least 17 tonight.

Great first road win!

66-53 final.

Nice win. 4-1 is a lot better than 3-2 and the short turnaround didn't make it easy.

It looks like the Kentucky game didn't do anything to their heads, because it sounds like they are back to playing good basketball.

Here's the O story

18 rebounds for Luke! 8 - 14 on 3's. That's more like it.

FT's could have been better, only 10 - 18, 56%.

If a winning season is the goal this year*, the first thing the Pilots have to do is beat the teams they ought to beat. They took care of business tonight. Well done.

*Until I wrote this and decided to check, I didn't realize that our last stretch of three winning seasons in a row was (gulp) 1979-82.

I know one young man that took his first chartered flight last night...a good experience for these young 18-22 year old men to have during the "overall Pilot Basketball life"....

I know Idaho is not the greatest team in the world, but I think it was an excellent test of character. This Pilot team, so far, has shown some good signs of competitiveness.
