Big Sky Big Timer: Morales Repeats


Live from the Scanson residence in Belgrade following a long, long travel day with a major winter weather delay in Denver…here is this week’s Big Timer:

Congrats to Mandy Morales for the second week in a row. This week Morales was the leading scorer in both of Montana’s games, helping the Lady Griz go 2-0 on the weekend. In a 68-53 win over Colorado State on Wednesday, Morales had 16 points and 9 rebounds. Against Portland, a 63-41 win for the LG, Morales had 13 points and 7 rebounds.

It was a tough weekend for the Big Sky as the teams went a combined 4-9, but with all teams playing tough non-conference schedules, the real fun will begin in three weeks when conference play starts!

Honorable Mention BSBTrs

Nicole Scott (EWU): 14 points and 4 rebounds to lead the Eagles in a big win over Pacific.

Michelle Grohs (ISU): Averaged 16 points and 9 rebounds in 2 losses.

Charday Hunt (SAC): 19 points and 4 steals in a rivalry win over UC Davis, 12 points in a loss to San Francisco

Atty Boyer (SAC): Double-double (15,10) in loss to San Fran, 8 points 10 rebounds in win over UC Davis.

Nubia Garcia (MSU): Career high 20 points and 9 rebounds in loss to San Diego State, fouled out vs USC.


Shout Outs:

Shannon Scanson: MVP radio listener of the weekend listened to 2 entire games this weekend. That is dedication.

Katie Falco: former MSU assistant has the South Dakota State Jackrabbits off to a 10-1 start with wins over Missouri, Wisconsin, Montana, Illinois, Gonzaga, and Minnesota (among others). Coach ‘em up Katie!

Joslyn Tinkle: 34 points, 10 rebounds in 56-45 win over Billings West. Wow.

Chelsea Banis: Future Bobcat had 20 points in Fairfield’s win Three Forks and 18 points in a rematch of the State B Championship (W for Fairfield).
