MISSOULA — The Montana men's and women's basketball teams wrapped up their regular seasons on Monday and are now set for the Big Sky Conference tournaments, which begin Saturday in Boise, Idaho.
The Griz men finished the regular season in style, rallying past Eastern Washington in a "Dahlberg After Dark" game to clinch a share of the Big Sky title. Montana (22-9 overall, 15-3 Big Sky) won 11 of 12 games to close the regular season and is the No. 2 seed for the conference tournament. The Griz will play Northern Arizona or Eastern Washington in a quarterfinal game at 8 p.m. Sunday.
The Lady Griz, meanwhile, are the sixth seed for the Big Sky tournament and will play third-seeded Idaho in a quarterfinal game at 2:30 p.m. Monday. The Montana women lost their regular-season finale at Eastern Washington to snap a two-game winning streak.
