Lucas Gebhart Sports Editor At the beginning of last season, a winning record seemed to be an unrealistic expectation for the 2015 Idaho State men’s basketball team. With a team that has lost over 20 games in recent history, nobody was surprised to see the Bengals at the bottom of […]

Lucas Gebhart Sports Editor @IdahoSportsLG Some of the best parts of March Madness are the Cinderella stories.

Lucas Gebhart Sports Editor ISU’s Ethan Telfair comes from a basketball family. His older brother Sebastian Telfair and older cousin Stephon Marbury both were valuable assets to many NBA teams over the course of their long careers. Sebastian Telfair was a first round draft pick in 2004 by the Portland […]
Lucas Gebhart Sports Editor Conference play is already under way and both the men’s and women’s basketball teams have their eyes set on Reno, host city of the Big Sky conference tournament. The men have opened conference play with three home games going 1-2 over that stretch with a win […]

Lucas Gebhart Staff Writer Most students look forward to Thanksgiving break as a time to relax, spend time with family and reconnect with old friends. Both Idaho State University basketball teams do not have that luxury, as neither the men nor women had Thanksgiving off this year. This is commonplace […]

Denim Millward Sports Editor The day this issue of the Bengal is printed just happens to be my birthday (if you see me, feel free to wish me a happy birthday, tell me I don’t look my age, give me gifts or throw a handful of confetti at me). The […]
