Reece Jenkin is in the fight of his life against stage 4 pancreatic cancer, but he's not in it alone. The town of Colfax, and larger basketball community is there with him.

"That's meant the absolute world to me."

They killed bowl games, regional conferences that are a reasonable size, conference championships, and a lot of the regular season value of the sport so they could shift everything to a 24 team invitational where a 3 or 4 loss team can potentially get hot at the right time and win all for the sake of the almighty dollar. The people who run this sport don’t care about anything other than money.

FINAL: @WSUCougarWBB wins the Battle of the Palouse over a good Vandals squad. Three Coug starters (Chatfield, Villa, Covill) all in double figures with Villa going 16-5-6. Nice win for the Cougs after a good showing against Oregon Friday night in a loss.

It’s Education Day here at Beasley Coliseum as @VandalsWBB travels to take on @WSUCougarWBB! Tons of elementary school aged kids here and LOUD already. The AirPods will be in for this game.

END 3: WSU 58, Idaho 31

Vandals made a good push out of the locker room and were much better on defense that quarter, but Ele Villa had a nice flourish to end the quarter for WSU and keep the large lead intact.

HALF: WSU 44, Idaho 15

Unbelievable half of basketball by Kamie Ethridge’s team. Great offense, but even better defense. That also may have been the greatest half of Alex Covill’s time at WSU. 12 points, only 2 rebounds but she impacted almost every Idaho shot. She’s been great.

[Stewart Mandel @slmandel]

Your voices were heard.

Then summarily dismissed.

[Austin Getz @AustinGetzSWX]

This is one of those games that I’ll remind people of next summer when folks are saying they’d watch any NFL game if it were on. This is a snooze fest.

[Gregg Bell @gbellseattle]

That 4th-down pass breakup by Nick Emmmwori in the end zone is the third time today he's denied Trey McBride to end an Arizona drive.

Once again, he's been THE difference making in the #Seahawks defense. In coverage. Blitzing Gardner Minshew into an intentional grounding. Everything.

[Austin Getz @AustinGetzSWX]

Witherspoon has been dangerously close to being flagged for taunting all season.

Lest we forget Riq Woolen.

[Austin Getz @AustinGetzSWX]

If I’m Mike Macdonald I’m getting a six figure fine after this game.

[Austin Getz @AustinGetzSWX]

There is no instance where an NFL referee crew needs to be throwing 20 flags in a game (when you consider offsetting) this is utterly ridiculous.

I want one.

[KAIYA BURR @BurrKaiya]

PAC-12 FIELD JUDGE IS GOATED.
Was chatting with him just now and found out we are both from AZ and his daughter runs track at one of the Universities.

He came back a couple minutes later and said “since you’re from Arizona here’s the official PAC-12 flipping coin.”

I AM IN AWE.

[Austin Getz @AustinGetzSWX]

A MAJOR @BigSkyConf showdown in the Kibbie Dome, as the Che-Scow cup is up for grabs. @EWUFootball traveling to Moscow to face @VandalFootball.

Broadcast starting RIGHT NOW on @SWXLocalSports!

FINAL: @VandalsWBB comes to the Kennel and leaves with a win over Gonzaga 86-75. Idaho defense forced 12 turnovers and held the Zags to 40% shooting on the night. Hope Hassman leads all scorers with 28, Ana Pinheiro right behind her with 26.

[Austin Getz @AustinGetzSWX]

This should be a ton of fun! @VandalsWBB has made the trip to the Kennel to face off with @ZagWBB in the second game of the season for each team! Two major players in their respective conferences. We’ll have the highlights tonight on @SWXLocalSports Overtime on @KHQLocalNews!

[Austin Getz @AustinGetzSWX]

END 3: Idaho 69, Gonzaga 46

Hassman up to 22 points, Ana Pinheiro with 20 as the Vandals have owned this game from the opening tip.

HALF: Idaho 54, Gonzaga 35

Domination in that first half by the Vandals. They are forcing turnovers all over and crashing the offensive glass heavily. Hope Hassman with 16 points in the first half.

[Austin Getz @AustinGetzSWX]

Sophomore Elyn Bowers with a career high 30 points as the Eags win a close one over UC Davis 75-72. She was excellent.

[Austin Getz @AustinGetzSWX]

Made it out to Reese Court for the @EWUWBB home opener vs UC Davis. Excited to see Joddie Gleason’s squad this year.

We’ll have these highlights on @KHQLocalNews at 11 during @SWXLocalSports Overtime tonight!
