with Idaho hosting Oregon State last January 4. Inability to hit the
basket cost Idaho their first loss in conference play 51-43. The next

of July- hit the basket with ease in notching their first win 55-39. In
the two contests played on the Beavers' home court in Corvallis- both
teams again split- O regon State winning the first 34-29, the Vandals
the second 39-31. In the final two contests Coach Slats G ill used the
ball-control style of ball against the Gem Staters.
