Idaho Finally Beats WSU In Pullman

The next time Idaho senior Connor Hill sees his Washington State men's basketball friends around the Palouse, he might just have some trash-talking words to say. In a friendly manner of course. Idaho and Washington State unofficially scrimmage each other over the summer up to three times a week. And for the last four summers Hill has had to heard the crowing of Cougars about their annual triumphs in the Battle of the Palouse. Hill, a senior from Post Falls, will now be doing the crowing. Idaho ended a 11-game losing streak to Washington State with a 77-71 Wednesday night win at Beasley Coliseum. It was Idaho's first win over the Cougars in Pullman since 1990/Sean Kramer, SR SportsLink. More here.
