These teams played on Wednesday and Eastern led by 7 with 3:29 left but they allowed the final 12 points of the game and lost by 1 as a 13 pt HF. "We controlled our destiny, and now we don't," said Legans. "We have to have other teams lose, and we have to go out and handle our business on Friday. If we don't, we drop to third probably. We have to be better and we have to be smarter with what we are doing." Eastern had won 9 straight prior to the upset loss while Idaho St best win was vs Portland St (#229). Look for Eastern Washington to come out strong and get a blowout win on Friday afternoon.
