“We came here and we were fired up. That’s it,” third-year coach Brian Holsinger stated in a press release. “We were pissed about how we played the other night. We’re committed to not playing like that, with hesitation.
“Everybody came and just brought it. We wanted to go fast, keep it simple and play our butts off. After a disappointing loss, to really take it to them right from the beginning, I’m really proud of our kids.”
Montana improved to 11-5 overall and 4-2 in the Big Sky Conference. The win was a bounce-back from Saturday's 64-55 loss at rival Montana State. The Lady Griz return home Thursday to host Portland State at 7 p.m.
