Portland State women's basketball game against Idaho postponed because of COVID with PSU.

Portland State men's basketball game with Idaho on Saturday also postponed due to COVID within Idaho's team.

That's odd. Both games canceled for COVID, but because of opposite schools. Given how often the men's and women's teams congregate (sometimes for practice, sometimes for meals, sometimes for class, sometimes for even dating), it's surprising that the Idaho women's team and PSU men's team didn't have issues, too....

Viks men's game with EWU is still scheduled for tonight at PSU. Maybe there is some COVID portal at the Tri-Cities that affects everyone who goes through there.

Hope this guy got some consideration…his numbers for ONE game beat Fausett’s…had a “subpar” 13/10/2 game against Weber.

Josh Bannan: Averaged 16 pts, 10 Reb, 2 Assists, 66% from the field, including 3/5 from 3-pt range (2 games)

Fausett's POTW was from the week before (Christmas week). Acliese got the POTW for this past week.

Well then. No wonder he didn’t win it.

Horrid reffing that game. And no, I’m not saying it made the Griz lose, in fact there were a couple obvious calls that were NOT made against the Griz…but the lack of consistency in WHAT is being called is just infuriating.

I swear, I’d be thrown out of every game if i was a coach.
