KRSLOVIC CARRIES MONTANA TO 10TH CONSECUTIVE WIN

GREELEY, Colo. – Montana stretched its win streak to double digits on Thursday, knocking off Northern Colorado, 88-79.

The 10-game win streak marks the 10th me in school history that Montana has won 10 or more games in a row, including the eighth me against all Division-I opponents. Montana has won six in a row on the road, ed for the seventh-longest ac ve streak in the NCAA.

“It was an emo onal win where guys were fi gh ng,” head coach Travis DeCuire said. “You’ve got to fi ght and you’ve got to ba le, and we did that.”

Senior Fabijan Krslovic scored a season-high 21 points, leading all Grizzlies. Fi een of his 21 points came in the second half, including a stretch early in the period in which he scored six in a row and 12 of Montana’s fi rst 21 second-half points.

DeCuire knew that UNC wouldn’t leave Montana’s guards, which would leave Krslovic one on one.

“We gave him a heads up before the game we were going to go to him tonight, so be ready to perform,” DeCuire said. “I thought he was ready to go, and that jump hook was looking sweet tonight.”

It marked the fi rst me this season that a player other than Ahmaad Rorie, Mi-chael Oguine or Jamar Akoh has led the Griz in scoring.

The Grizzlies led by as many as 15 points in the fi rst half, but a er beginning the game 3-for-14 shoo ng, Northern Colorado made 10 of its fi nal 12 shots to enter the break ed at 37-37. The Grizzlies, though, would begin the second half on a 17-4 run to once again take control.

“One-on-one play got them back in the game,” DeCuire said of UNC’s fi rst-half run. “We were giving up layups around the rim. It was me for us to ghten up and play by our rules. Once we did that, we got stops and we got rebounds.”

In addi on to Krslovic’s 21 points and eight rebounds, junior Bobby Moorehead also had a season high with 17 points on four three-pointers, in addi on to a team-most nine boards.

“Fab and Bob were big me for us,” DeCuire said.Five Grizzlies scored at least nine points, including Rorie (18), Akoh (13) and Say-

eed Pridge (nine). Oguine was held to fi ve points and missed the fi nal 16 minutes a er injuring his leg. DeCuire said he could have re-entered the game, but was held out to rest him for Saturday.

Montana never trailed in the contest, and while the Grizzlies led by double digits for the majority of the second half, Northern Colorado never fully went away, ge ng within six points with under 2 minutes to play. Every me UNC would chip away, Montana would fi re back.

The Grizzlies shot 55.2 percent on the night, including 69.2 percent during the second half – 4-of-5 from beyond the arc in the second period. UNC, which made 14 three-pointers last month in Missoula, was held to 8-of-26 shoo ng from long range.

“I thought we did an incredible job defending,” DeCuire said. “It’s about as good as you’re going to do against them, especially since two of those were step-back threes.”

The Grizzlies out-rebounded the Bears, 42-32. A total of 50 fouls were called in the game, resul ng in 60 free throw a empts.

Montana will now travel to North Dakota, looking to keep the momentum of a 10-0 start to conference play going. The Figh ng Hawks held off Montana State, 75-74, earlier on Thursday evening. Tipoff on Saturday is slated for 3 p.m. MT and can be watched on Eleven Sports, in addi on to streamed on Pluto TV and WatchBigSky.com.

MONTANA BASKETBALL

MONTANA TAKES UNBEATEN RECORD TO NORTH DAKOTA ONE FINAL TIME AS CONFERENCE FOESTravis DeCuire gives his team 24 hours to celebrate a win, and then it’s onto the next game. With a short turnaround between games, the 24-hour rule may be trimmed in half as Montana travels from Northern Colorado to North Dakota to take on the Figh ng Hawks (Saturday, 3 p.m. MT).

The Grizzlies enjoy celebra ng success, but they don’t mind the coach’s rule either. A er all, DeCuire believes the best part of celebra ng is by winning the next game.

“You have to fi nd a way to enjoy working toward the next one instead of celebra ng the last one,” DeCuire said earlier this week.

There was plenty to be excited about regarding Montana’s win over North-ern Colorado on Thursday. Mostly, it was another win – on the road no less – to keep the Grizzlies perfect in Big Sky Conference play. But the excite-ment was also related to how it was done.

The Grizzlies used an 11-0 run to jump out to a 25-10 advantage, only to see the Bears e the game late in the fi rst half. Once again, though, Montana responded, opening the second half on a 17-4 run and never trailing. Then there was who stepped up. Junior Michael Oguine was held to fi ve points and a season-low 21 minutes, but senior Fabijan Krslovic, who entered the game averaging 5.2 points, scored a season-most 21. Junior wing Bobby Moorehead also scored a season-high 18 points, to go along with a team-leading nine rebounds.

“We’re mul -dimensional and have a lot of threats,” DeCuire said. “We have a lot of selfl ess players who are ready to step up when they need to.”

Now into the second half of league play, the Grizzlies hold a 2.5-game lead in the conference standings. Next up is a North Dakota squad that has strug-gled overall, but is s ll dangerous. Despite their 8-14 record (3-7 Big Sky), the Figh ng Hawks are coming off of a 75-74 victory over Montana State on Thursday night. It’s a team that has won three consecu ve games at home – including a win over Weber State – and had a three-point loss at Northern Colorado on a half-court buzzer beater.

“They’re playing a lot be er, a lot more focused,” associate head coach Chris Cobb said. “They don’t have the depth, but their fi rst fi ve are probably as talented as anyone in the conference, and they’ve won a championship before.”

Saturday will mark the Grizzlies’ last trip to Grand Forks as conference foes, as North Dakota moves to the Summit League beginning in 2018-19. Despite North Dakota winning the league tle a year ago, Montana handed the Figh ng Hawks a loss in the two teams’ only mee ng. In fact, DeCuire is a perfect 6-0 vs. North Dakota, including 2-0 in Grand Forks.

Last month in Missoula, Montana hung 109 points on North Dakota in a 30-point victory. DeCuire noted that the Grizzlies took advantage of 10 steals and 22 points off of turnovers in the contest, and expects a more compe ve ba le this me around.

“When we force turnovers we fi nish pre y well,” DeCuire said. “I think both teams will try to play fast, and they have some shooters that can go off , so we have to be ready for another barnburner down the stretch if we need to.”

Saturday’s contest will be televised on Eleven Sports as the Big Sky Game

of the Week. Like every game, it will also be streamed on Pluto TV and WatchBigSky.com.

JUST KEEP WINNINGMontana’s 10-game win streak is the longest under Travis DeCuire, and is ed for the eighth-longest ac ve streak in the NCAA.

In more than a century of basketball at the university, Montana has reached 10 consec-u ve victories 10 mes (eight mes against all-Division-I teams).

“We’re just trying to stay hungry,” Travis DeCuire said. “Any hint of complacency we deal with it right away, but I haven’t seen much of it. They’re playing for the bigger picture. They’re playing together. When you get a group willing to give up for the be er of the whole, you’ve always got a chance to win, and right now we have a lot of guys doing that.”

STARTING STRONGMontana is off to a 10-0 start to begin Big Sky Conference play, marking the second me in the Grizzlies’ 55-year history in the league. The Grizzlies also did it in 2012-13, winning their fi rst 12 games.

ROAD STREAKWhile Montana owns a 10-game winning streak overall, the Grizzlies’ six-game road winning streak is ed for the sixth-longest ac vely in the NCAA and is ed for a school record. Na onally, the Grizzlies trail Saint Mary’s (12) and Purdue, ETSU, New Mexico State and Bucknell (7).

Several Montana teams have won six consecu ve road games, most recent-ly in January-February 2013, but no team has won seven in a row.

FIRST TO 50In four seasons in the Big Sky Conference, Travis DeCuire has won at an historic pace. DeCuire holds a 49-15 mark in Big Sky ac on (.766), by far the best of any Montana coach in school history. However, a win on Saturday would make DeCuire the fastest coach in Big Sky history to reach 50 confer-ence wins. He currently is 49-15. Weber State’s Randy Rahe accomplished the feat in his 67th game with the Wildcats (50-17).

Addi onally, DeCuire’s current conference winning percentage is the third-best in Big Sky history, and the best among coaches with at least 40 wins.

22 GAMES INAt 17-5 through 22 games, Montana is off to one of its be er starts in school history. The Grizzlies have begun a season 17-5 or be er eight mes prior to this season, most recently in 2012-13 (18-4 through 22 games).

17 AND COUNTINGThursday’s win at Northern Colorado not only extended Montana’s winning streak to 10 games, but also surpassed last year’s season win total. The Griz went 16-16 a year ago, but now are on pace to reach the 20-win plateau for the third me in Travis DeCuire’s four seasons. Montana is guaranteed to fi nish .500 or be er for the 10th consecu ve season.

MONTANA BASKETBALL

SERIES VS. THE FIGHTING HAWKSMontana and North Dakota will meet for the 22nd me on Saturday, and for the fi nal me as Big Sky Conference foes. The Figh ng Hawks are leaving for the Summit League a er this season.

Montana holds a 16-5 record over North Dakota, but the two teams are locked at 4-4 in Grand Forks. Montana has won three of the last four on the road, including back to back under Travis DeCuire in 2015 and 2016. Both games were decided by fi nal scores of 65-61.

DeCuire is a perfect 6-0 vs. the Figh ng Hawks, including a 109-79 win in Missoula last month. The 109 points scored were the most against a Division-I opponent in 27 years and the third-most in school history. The Grizzlies shot a season-high 61.5 percent from the fl oor and were led by 22 points apiece from Jamar Akoh and Ahmaad Rorie.

The two teams fi rst met in 1929-30, and then again twice in the 1940s and in four consecu ve seasons in the 1960s. They wouldn’t play again un l 2008-09 and 2009-10 – both Griz wins in Missoula – and have played at least once each of the past seven seasons since North Dakota joined the Big Sky Conference. Montana has won nine of the past 10 contests overall, and 16 of 19.

Fabijan Krslovic has played in all six games of Montana’s win streak over North Dakota, averaging 7.5 points and 4.7 boards per contest, including a double-double as a junior (16 points, 10 rebounds).

SCOUTING NORTH DAKOTA• North Dakota enters Saturday’s matchup just 8-14 overall and 3-7 in

Big Sky play, but has won three consecu ve home games.• Against the Grizzlies in January, Tray Buchanan (16) and Marlon

Stewart (15) were UND’s leading scorers, with 15 of their combined 31 points coming from the charity stripe.

• All-conference guard Geno Crandall scored 17 points in UND’s win over Montana State on Thursday. He also added six assists and three steals. Dale Jones was the team’s leading scorer (18) and rebounder (eight).

• North Dakota ranks last in the Big Sky, allowing 83.5 points per game. The Figh ng Hawks also rank last for rebounding (28.8, -8.5 margin).

• UND ranks third in the Big Sky with a +1.1 turnover margin and averag-es 6.1 steals per contest (fi h).

• Crandall is among the league leaders for scoring (14.0 per game; 15th),

PRONUNCIATION GUIDE

assists (3.1; 10th) and steals (1.5; fi h).• Jones is in the Big Sky rankings for rebounding (6.2; 14th) and scoring

(12.6; 21st). He is also the team’s top three-point shooter, averaging 2.3 makes per game (sixth).

• Cortez Seales (.524; 10th) and Conner Avants (.521; 11th) rank in the top 12 for fi eld-goal percentage. UND and UM are the only two schools to have mul ple players ranked in the top 12.

LEADING THE BIG SKYThrough 10 games, Montana holds a 2.5-game lead in the Big Sky standings. The Grizzlies, though, also are atop the conference for many off ensive and defensive sta s cal categories. The Grizzlies rank fi rst for:

• Scoring off ense (84.2)• Scoring defense (67.4)• Scoring margin (+16.8)• Field-goal percentage (.505)• Field-goal percentage defense (.383)• Three-point fi eld-goal percentage (.446)• Three-point fi eld-goal percentage defense (.327)• Rebounding (37.5)• Steals (8.8)• Turnover margin (+4.4)

NATIONAL RANKINGMontana cracked the CollegeInsider.com Mid-Major Top 25 poll for the fi rst me this season on Jan. 15, and following three more wins has moved up

to No. 16 in this week’s poll. The Mid-Major Top 25 ranks the top teams from the America East, Atlan c Sun, Big Sky, Big South, Big West, Colonial, Horizon, Ivy, Metro Atlan c, Mid-American, Mid-Eastern, Missouri Valley, Northeast, Ohio Valley, Patriot, Southern, Southland, Southwestern, Sum-mit, Sun Belt, West Coast and Western Athle c conferences, in addi on to independents.

The Grizzlies earned 294 points in this week’s poll, nearly twice as many as the prior week (153). The poll, now in its 19th season, is voted on by 31 head coaches.

PLAYING FROM IN FRONTThrough 10 Big Sky games, the Grizzlies have trailed for just 49 minutes, 46 seconds out of 400 total minutes (12.4 percent). More impressive, they have trailed for just 6:43 in the second half.

MONTANA BASKETBALL

SHARP SHOOTERSTwo Big Sky athletes rank in the top 15 in league play for fi eld-goal per-centage, three-point shoo ng and free-throw percentage. Both play for the Grizzlies.

Ahmaad Rorie ranks 15th for fi eld-goal percentage (.496), seventh for three-point shoo ng (.486) and third for free-throw percentage (.935). Michael Oguine ranks seventh (.551), sixth (.500) and 11th (.814).

TERRIFIC TRIOMontana is the only school in Big Sky play to have three players rank in the top 20 for scoring, with juniors Ahmaad Rorie (18.4; eighth), Michael Ogu-ine (16.6; 10th) and Jamar Akoh (16.1; 12th) accomplishing the feat.

Rorie has been in double fi gures 20 mes this season – including 20-plus on 11 occasions. Oguine has been in double fi gures in all but three contests, while Akoh has accomplished the feat in 13 of his past 15 contests, includ-ing four double-doubles.

TRENDING• Montana is undefeated at home this season (9-0).• The Grizzlies are a perfect 15-0 when leading or ed at hal ime, com-

pared to 2-5 when trailing.• UM is 12-2 in games decided by double digits.• The Grizzlies are 9-0 when scoring 80 or more points, and 15-1 when

scoring at least 70 points.• Montana is 11-1 when opponents score fewer than 70 points, with the

excep on coming in a three-point loss at Washington. • Montana is 12-0 when shoo ng above .450.• Montana is 6-0 when opponents shoot .400 or worse.• The Grizzlies are 8-0 when holding a be er three-point percentage and

10-1 when shoo ng more free throws.• Ironically, the Grizzlies are 5-0 when opponents make eight or more

three-pointers.• Montana is 14-2 when turning the ball over less than its opponent.

FORCING TURNOVERSMontana has forced at least 12 turnovers in every game this season and ranks among the na on’s best, forcing 16.8 turnovers per game (16th in NCAA). The Grizzlies have turned the ball over more mes than their oppo-nent just four mes in 22 games and hold a +3.8 turnover margin (19th in NCAA).

On four occasions, Montana has forced 20 or more turnovers in a game, and in a win at Pi (Nov. 13), the Grizzlies forced the Panthers into 19 turnovers, conver ng them into 30 points – an average of 1.58 points per turnover.

SIMPLE ROUTINEMontana was one of 11 NCAA Division I schools to use the same star ng lineup in every game this season, using guards Michael Oguine and Ahmaad Rorie, and forwards Jamar Akoh, Fabijan Krslovic and Bobby Moorehead.

The other schools to use the same star ng lineup every game are: Army, Central Michigan, Davidson, Duke, Elon, Northern Kentucky, Old Dominion, Penn, Purdue and Virginia.

THREE-POINT SUCCESSThrough non-conference play, Montana ranked last in the Big Sky Confer-ence for three-point fi eld-goal defense (.388) and second-to-last for three-point off ense (.284). However, the Grizzlies have turned things around

NOTES

and lead the league for both three-point shoo ng (.446) and three-point defense (.327) during Big Sky ac on.

The improvement was best seen last week in wins over Southern Utah and Northern Arizona. The Thunderbirds entered the contest averaging nearly 9 makes and 24 three-point a empts per game, but were held to just 1-of-11 shoo ng, with Montana’s mindset on taking away SUU’s go-to shot. Two nights later vs. the Lumberjacks, the Grizzlies made a season-most 12 three-pointers (42.9 percent) en route to victory.

50%Montana is shoo ng be er than 50 percent (.505) from the fl oor during its 10 conference games, a league best. At home this season, the Grizzlies have made at least half of their shots in seven of their past eight games, includ-ing a season-high 62 percent vs. North Dakota (Jan. 4).

THE 1,000-POINT CLUBGuard Michael Oguine became the 32nd member of Montana’s 1,000-point club on Saturday, scoring 23 points against Northern Arizona. The junior now sits in 31st place and is one of 14 players in UM history to reach the milestone in his third season. At his current pace, Oguine could fi nish his junior season with more than 1,200 points, which would rank in the top 16.

BE LIKE MIKEJunior guard Michael Oguine, a third-team All-Big Sky selec on in 2016-17, scored in double fi gures in the fi rst 11 games of the season, including 29 in a win at Pi (Nov. 13), followed by 39 at Portland State (Jan. 13).

Oguine does it all for the Griz, ranking second on the team with 15.4 points per game. He also ranks second for assists (43), blocks (13) and rebounding (4.8 per game), and leads the team with 34 steals.

ALL-AROUND RORIEAhmaad Rorie is among the na on’s elite for minutes played, scoring and steals, ranking in the top 150 na onally for all three categories.

Among Big Sky athletes specifi cally, Rorie is the only player in the confer-ence to rank in the top 10 for scoring (18.4 points per game; eight), assists (3.1 per game; 10th) and steals (1.2 per game; 10th). Rorie also ranks third in the conference with a 2.2 assist-to-turnover ra o.

NEARLY PERFECT FROM THE LINEAhmaad Rorie made his fi rst 24 free-throw a empts to begin Big Sky ac on. He is now 29-of-31 and ranks third in the league with a .935 free-throw percentage. On the season, he is making a team-best 83.5 percent of his free-throw a empts (71-of-85).

AKOH TAKING OVERThe Grizzlies had high hopes for Jamar Akoh, a transfer from Cal State Fullerton who redshirted a year ago. In his fi rst two games, however, he combined for just four points and two rebounds, being limited to 28 total minutes due to foul trouble.

Over the next 20 games, Akoh has taken over down low, averaging 14.7 points and 7.2 rebounds, and shoo ng 59.2 percent. He has 16 double-fi g-ure scoring games during that 20-game span, including 12 of the past 14 games

During conference play, Akoh ranks 12th in the league for scoring (16.1

7


points per game) and sixth for rebounding (7.0). He is one of three players to rank in the top 15 for both scoring and rebounding. Akoh also ranks sixth with a .564 fi eld-goal percentage.

AKOH EARNS WEEKLY HONORSJunior forward Jamar Akoh was named player of the week by the Big Sky Conference and College Sports Madness on Jan. 8. It was the fi rst weekly honor of his career. Akoh averaged 28.0 points and 9.5 rebounds per game in victories over North Dakota and Northern Colorado.

Against the Figh ng Hawks, he had a double-double with 22 points and 11 rebounds – both team highs – in addi on to three assists and a steal. Two nights later, he scored 34 points, the most by a Grizzly in eight seasons.

STOUT DEFENSEMontana ranks in the top third na onally for the majority of defensive sta s cal categories:

• 16.8 turnovers forced per game: 16th in NCAA (2nd in BSC)• +3.8 turnover margin: 17th (2rd)• 8.1 steals per game: 21st (2nd) • +4.4 rebounding margin: 60th (2nd)• 68.4 points allowed per game: 80th (2nd)• .421 fi eld-goal percentage defense: 97th (3rd)

CRASHING THE GLASSMontana has out-rebounded its opponents in 17 of its last 21 games, which is par cularly impressive considering four of those contests have come against Power-5 teams and another came against a UC Irvine team that ranked No. 2 na onally for total rebounds at the me.

More than one-third of Montana’s rebounds have come from the off ensive end (34.0 percent); that number was 28.6 percent a year ago. The Grizzlies are currently averaging 12.5 off ensive rebounds per game this season (40th in NCAA).

PRIDGETT PERFORMINGSophomore Sayeed Pridge is Montana’s fi rst player off the bench, and he’s quietly and consistently pu ng up strong performances for the Griz. In addi on to 7.5 points per game, Pridge is shoo ng at a 44-percent clip and ranks third on the team for steals (31) and blocked shots (12), and fourth for assists (28) and rebounding (4.3 per game). His 17 steals during Big Sky play rank fourth in the league.

MORE MOOREHEADBobby Moorehead struggled off ensively for much of his sophomore season in 2016-17, averaging 3.9 points per game on .320 shoo ng. The junior has turned things around in 2017-18, averaging 8.4 points per game and ranking second on the team for minutes played (32:00), three-pointers (38) and rebounding (5.2 per game). His 12 blocked shots rank third, while his 25 steals rank fourth.

Recently, Travis DeCuire called Moorehead his team’s ‘toughest’ player, and following the fi rst double-double of his career (10 points, career-high 12 rebounds at Montana State), he called his a ‘beast’, referencing his Twi er handle. More impressive than the double-double, Moorehead locked down preseason player of the year Tyler Hall, limi ng him to zero fi eld goals in the second half.

FRESHMAN FALLSTimmy Falls scored 12 points through Montana’s fi rst 10 games of the

season before breaking out vs. UC Irvine (Dec. 19). The freshman played 22 minutes off the bench and scored 14 points, including 4-for-4 shoo ng from three-point range. Falls also had several no-look passes and took a charge on defense.

Since his breakout performance vs. UC Irvine, Falls is averaging 22 minutes and 5.5 points per game. He’s also added 32 assists and 12 steals during the 12-game stretch.

HOME SWEET HOMEThe Grizzlies hold a perfect 9-0 mark at home this season, and over the past decade has won more than 80 percent of its contests inside Dahlberg Arena, going 113-25 (.819). All- me, the Grizzlies boast one of the best home-court advantages, going 687-240 (.741) in their home arena.

PULLING AWAYMontana concluded the fi rst half of Big Sky play with an 18-point victory over Northern Arizona (Jan. 27). A er trailing early in the fi rst half, Montana was able to take a seven-point lead into hal ime by holding the Lum-berjacks to just two made fi eld goals over the fi nal 10:57 of the fi rst half. Following the intermission, Montana made 11 of its fi rst 12 shots off ensive-ly, while forcing turnovers on six of NAU’s fi rst seven possessions of the half. Just 6:29 into the second half, the Grizzlies had expanded a seven-point lead to 28 points.

OUR STATEMontana defeated Montana State on Jan. 26 for the 13th me in the past 14 mee ngs. The Grizzlies trailed by as many as nine points in the fi rst half before the Grizzlies held the Bobcats to 19 second-half points and just four made fi eld goals (16.7 percent).

Montana State’s top-two scorers, Tyler Hall and Harald Frey, were held without a fi eld goal in the second half.

WIDE MARGINThe Grizzlies recorded back-to-back 30-point victories (at Southern Utah, Dec. 30; vs. North Dakota, Jan. 4), marking the fi rst me in 44 years that Montana had won consecu ve games by 30 or more points. The last me the Grizzlies did it was in 1973-74, under Jud Heathcote. In the midst of a 13-game win streak, Montana defeated Gonzaga by 35 and Northern Arizona by 32.

Montana is out-scoring its conference opponents 842-647, winning by an average of 16.8 points per game (league best).

OGUINE’S CAREER NIGHTMichael Oguine was named the Big Sky Conference Ready Nutri on Player of the Week on Jan. 15, a er leading the Grizzlies to a pair of road victories.

Oguine averaged 27.5 points per game on 68 percent shoo ng, also adding 12 total rebounds, six steals, fi ve assists and a blocked shot on the week. It was highlighted by a 39-point performance at Portland State that got him and the Griz featured on SportsCenter. The 39 points scored were the most by a Grizzly since Anthony Johnson scored 42 vs. Weber State in the 2010 Big Sky Conference championship game, and the most by a Big Sky athlete this season.

Twenty-four of Oguine’s career-high 39 points came in the second half, help-ing Montana overcome a six-point hal ime defi cit. The Grizzlies had runs of 11-0 and 13-2 in the second half, with Oguine scoring 11 points during

8


those two stretches, including a huge three-pointer in the corner that gave Montana a game-high 13-point lead. Oguine also added a season-high eight rebounds vs. the Vikings. On Thursday at Sacrament State, he scored 16 points and had a team-most four steals.

PULLING THROUGHAlthough Montana led Portland State (Jan. 13) by as many as 13 points in the second half, its lead was trimmed to a single point with 1:12 remaining in regula on. The Grizzlies hit their free throws down the stretch, though, to pull out their narrowest win of the season (92-89). Montana was previ-ously 0-2 in games decided by a single possession.

TRIPLE DIGITSMontana scored 109 points in a blowout win over North Dakota (Jan. 4), an off ensive performance that was historic on many levels:

• Montana reached the century mark for the fi rst me since December 2009 vs. Great Falls.

• It was Montana’s fi rst 100-point performance against a Division-I oppo-nent since December 1999 vs. Youngstown State.

• The 109 points were ed for the third-most in school history, and the most against a Division-I opponent since the Grizzlies scored 109 points against Idaho State, in March 1991.

FRESHMAN CONNECTIONFreshman Karl Nicholas scored a career-high 17 points on a perfect 8-for-8 shoo ng vs. North Dakota (Jan. 4), including four thunderous dunks that brought the crowd to its feet. The fi rst two came on back-to-back posses-sions, both coming off of turnovers. The next two also came in transi on and were fed by his freshman roommate Timmy Falls. First, Falls delivered a no-look, behind-the-head pass. He followed that up with an alley oop that he lobbed from half court.

Nicholas ranks 11th in league play with eight blocked shots.

SEASON LOWSMontana’s defense held Northern Arizona (Dec. 28) to season lows for fi eld goals (16) and fi eld-goal percentage (.327). Both fi gures were season lows for UM opponents this season as well. Those marks lasted just two days, however, as the Griz defense was again dominant two days later. Southern Utah (Dec. 30) was held to 49 points, 15 fi eld goals and .263 shoo ng.

The 49 points and 15 fi eld goals were the fewest by an opponent since North Dakota scored 46 on 15-of-56 shoo ng on March 3, 2016. The fi eld-goal percentage was the lowest by an opponent since Montana State shot .259 on Jan. 17, 2015. Last week, playing Southern Utah for the second me, the Thunderbirds were held to 47 total points and 15 made fi eld goals

once again.

WELL CONDITIONEDEntering January, Montana had three players who averaged at least 33:00 minutes played per game. Ahmaad Rorie was averaging 36:36 per game, including all 40 minutes vs. UC Santa Barbara (Nov. 21). Fellow juniors Bob-by Moorehead (33:50) and Michael Oguine (33:00) were also among the na- on’s leaders. In fact, Montana was one of 14 Division-I schools na onally

to have three players average 33 minutes per game or be er.

NON-CONFERENCE SUCCESSMontana closed its non-conference season with a winning record (7-5) for the fi rst me in six seasons. In fact, despite a storied history that is li ered with conference championships and postseason berths, this season marks

just the fi h me since the turn of the century that the Grizzlies have posted a winning non-conference mark. The other mes were in 2005-06, 2009-10, 2010-11 and 2011-12 – with Montana advancing to the NCAA tournament three of those seasons and the CBI in 2011.

The feat is even more impressive considering the level of compe on Mon-tana faced. The Grizzlies played four Power-5 opponents (Pi , Penn State, Stanford and Washington, all on the road). The Grizzlies also played six of their fi rst nine games away from home, with an addi onal road game at No. 23 UCLA being canceled once the team was already on site. In addi on to the Power-5 opponents, UC Santa Barbara is off to a 16-5 start while UC Irvine was predicted to win the Big West and Georgia State was selected to fi nish second in the Sun Belt.

NARROW DEFEATSMontana fi nished non-conference play with its fi rst winning record in six seasons, but the Griz can’t help but wonder, ‘What if?’ as well. Of Mon-tana’s fi ve losses, the Grizzlies led or were within a single possession late in the second half in all fi ve games.

• At Penn State (Big Ten), Montana held early leads and was within a single possession, 58-55, with under 4 minutes to play.

• In the championship game of the Legends Classic Malibu Region, Mon-tana overcame an 18-point defi cit to take the lead, including 48-46 with 12:51 remaining.

• At Stanford (Pac-12), Montana held mul ple second-half leads, in-cluding by as many as six points, 50-44, with under 10 minutes on the clock.

• Montana overcame a 17-point hal ime defi cit at Georgia State, tying the game and having the ball with under a minute to play.

• At Washington (Pac-12), Montana led with 4:16 to play and had the chance to e the game with two free-throw opportuni es with 5.1 seconds le on the clock.

ROAD WARRIORSThe Grizzlies traveled more than 12,000 miles during non-conference play – taking two trips to the East Coast, three fl ights to the state of California and one to nearby Sea le. Through the fi rst 30 days of the regular season, Montana was on the road for 19 of them.

• Following a season-opening win over Whitworth (Nov. 10), Montana was on a plane nine hours later for a six-day trip to the state of Penn-sylvania (Nov. 11-16).

• A er back-to-back games against Power-5 opponents (Pi and Penn State), Montana had two home prac ces before fl ying to California to con nue the Legends Classic (Nov. 19).

• The Grizzlies returned from California and had two prac ces in Missou-la to prepare for Carroll (Nov. 26).

• Montana had just one day in between its game against Carroll and fl ying to Stanford (le on Nov. 28).

• Montana returned from its trip to Stanford and had two home prac c-es before hos ng CSUN (Dec. 3).

• Following its win over CSUN, the Grizzlies had one day at home before fl ying to UCLA and Georgia State for a six-day road trip (Dec. 5-10).

HEARTBREAK VS. THE HUSKIESMontana had several chances at an addi onal non-conference victory over a Power-5 program, taking Washington down to the wire (Dec. 22). In the three-point loss, Montana held mul ple second-half leads, including one with under 4 minutes to play.

Despite the loss, Montana out-rebounded the Huskies, 41-27, including 20-6 on the off ensive glass. The Grizzlies also had 12 assists compared to

9

MONTANA BASKETBALL

Washington’s four, and converted 18 turnovers into 24 points. Washing-ton, however, got to the free-throw line 21 mes compared to just six for Montana.

DOMINANT DEFENSEIn an 18-point win over UC Irvine (Dec. 19), Montana’s defense forced 15 turnovers, including three shot-clock viola ons and two 10-second whistles. On off ense, the Grizzlies shot be er than 50 percent and scored 86 points (then a season high). A erward, Travis DeCuire said his team’s performance was the best of the season, and perhaps the best he’s seen his team play in his four years as head coach.

“Tonight is the fi rst me we’ve put 40 minutes together on both sides of the ball,” DeCuire said. “Our energy and the way we played together, and the way we executed on both sides of the ball, was incredible. I don’t know that we’ve played this well as a group, as a unit, since I’ve been here.”

HONORING DELVONPrior to Montana’s game vs. UC Irvine (Dec. 19), the Grizzlies recognized former player Delvon Anderson, who passed away in August at the age of 47. His family was on the court during a video ceremony and DeCuire and former head coach Blaine Taylor presented them with the Legend of the Game plaque – an award given to a former player or coach from each par- cipa ng team in the 2017 Legends Classic tournament.

DeCuire and Anderson played together in the early 1990s and Taylor was their coach. He is Montana’s winningest coach in school history (.680 winning percentage) and is now an assistant coach at UC Irvine. During Anderson’s two-year career at Montana, the Grizzlies won back-to-back Big Sky Conference championships. He was the conference MVP as a senior in 1992.

Throughout the season, players have worn No. 24 warmup jerseys to honor Anderson. Addi onally, a black stripe has been displayed on the le shoulder of all jerseys, recognizing Anderson and former head coach Jud Heathcote, who also passed away in August.

FINALLY A SATURDAYMontana will play at least 11 games on Saturdays this season – more than any other day of the week. However, the Grizzlies didn’t play a Saturday game un l Dec. 9, a full month into the season. Only Oklahoma played more games to begin the season without a Saturday game.

GAME CANCELEDMontana was scheduled to play fi ve teams from Power-5 conference this season, but the Grizzlies’ contest at UCLA (Dec. 6) was canceled due to wild-fi res that were spreading throughout the area and shut down UCLA’s cam-pus. The Griz held one prac ce at Pauley Pavilion and scheduled another at a nearby gym in Los Angeles before depar ng for Atlanta to take on Georgia State. Ironically, there were talks of that game being canceled as well when a rare snowstorm took over the southern region of the United States and closed Georgia State’s campus.

NICHOLAS FINDING HIS FORMTravis DeCuire had high expecta ons for Karl Nicholas, but the freshman was limited early in the season due to foul trouble. Through his fi rst three career games, Nicholas averaged just 7.7 minutes per game, picking up four fouls in each contest.

The Texas na ve had a breakout week in Malibu, Calif., however, playing

NOTES

18 minutes vs. Oral Roberts (Nov. 20) and 28 minutes vs. UC Santa Barbara (Nov. 21). Nicholas averaged 10.5 points per game over the two contests, connec ng on 10 of 15 shot a empts. He also added nine rebounds in the two games.

CLUTCH RORIEJunior guard Ahmaad Rorie has scored in double fi gures 19 mes this season, averaging 18.6 points per game. The point total is impressive, but more impressive is when he is scoring. Six of Rorie’s 18 points at Pi (Nov. 13) came in the over me period, while two nights later at Penn State (Nov. 15), he had four points, a steal and an assist during a 9-0 UM run to cut the Grizzlies’ defi cit to a single point, 51-50, midway through the second half.

The all-conference performer was on full display again vs. Oral Roberts (Nov. 20), scoring a team-high 18 points, in addi on to six assists and three steals. Trailing 17-16 with 8 minutes to play in the fi rst half, Montana closed the half on a 15-6 run. Rorie had nine points and two assists during that run, contribu ng to six of UM’s eight made fi eld goals. He was again clutch late, knocking down both free-throw a empts with 22 seconds to play to increase Montana’s lead to two possessions.

Rorie was named to the Legends Classic Malibu Region All-Tournament team a er playing 75 of 80 minutes and totaling 38 points, 12 assists, seven steals and six rebounds.

OGUINE RECOGNIZED BY COLLEGE SPORTS MADNESSJunior guard Michael Oguine was the College Sports Madness Big Sky Player of the Week for games played Nov. 13-19. Oguine scored 29 points in a signature victory at Pi (Nov. 13) and then two days later at Penn State (Nov. 15), totaled 15 points and grabbed seven boards in a narrow loss to the Ni any Lions.

A SIGNATURE VICTORYA er coming close, but not close enough, mul ple mes against Power-5 teams, Montana fi nally got over the hump and knocked off Pi on Nov. 13 in Pi sburgh. The win snapped Montana’s 14-game losing streak against Power-5 schools and was the program’s fi rst since 2010. It marked Mon-tana’s fi rst over a team currently in the ACC since 1966.

Montana led for nearly 24 minutes against Pi , including by as many as seven points. Below are key stats that led the Grizzlies to their signature victory:

• Montana forced Pi into 19 turnovers, turning them into 30 points. Two of the turnovers were off ensive charges, one taken by Karl Nicho-las and another by Fabijan Krslovic. Krslovic fi nished with a team-most nine rebounds, two blocked shots and two steals.

• Montana out-rebounded Pi , 39-38, including 14-12 on the off ensive glass.

• The Grizzlies held the lead for 23:46, compared to 14:07 for the Pan-thers.

• Montana overcame foul trouble – three players fi nished the game with four fouls – and a slow start at the free-throw line. The Grizzlies began the game just 4-for-11 from the charity stripe before fi nishing 12-of-14 down the stretch – including 10 makes in a row at one point – to put the game out of reach.

• A er trailing by a game-most seven points, 28-21, with under 5 min-utes to play in the fi rst half, Montana closed the half on a 16-7 run to head into the intermission leading by two, 37-35.

• The Grizzlies started the game 0-for-7 from three-point range before Ahmaad Rorie hit back-to-back threes late in the fi rst half. Bobby Moorehead followed with two more, giving the Grizzlies 12 consecu-

HOME-OPENING SUCCESSWith Montana’s win over Whitworth (Nov. 10), the Grizzlies improved to 15-3 in home openers since the turn of the century.

DEBUTINGMontana’s season opener vs. Whitworth (Nov. 10) marked collegiate and UM debuts for several Grizzlies. Junior Jamar Akoh, a transfer from Cal State Fullerton, earned the start. Also seeing consistent me were freshmen Tim-my Falls and Karl Nicholas. In the fi nal minute of the game, Travis DeCuire inserted Admir Besovic, Niko Bevens and Lars Espe.

DEFENSE WINS CHAMPIONSHPSThe off ense had been clicking, but the defense needed work. That was Travis DeCuire’s assessment through the fi rst month of prac ces and scrim-mages, leading up to Montana’s exhibi on contest vs. Saskatchewan (Nov. 6).

DeCuire saw his team’s ability to get stops, as Montana held Saskatchewan to 26-percent shoo ng in an 85-44 exhibi on victory. Leading by just two, 25-23, with under 8 minutes to play in the fi rst half, Montana went on a 36-4 run over the next 14 minutes – extending across both periods – and did not allow a fi eld goal during that span. The Huskies were 0-for-18 from the fl oor with 11 turnovers during that stretch. On the evening, Montana forced 12 steals and blocked a dozen shots.

ANDERSON SIGNEDMontana signed Mack Anderson to a Na onal Le er of Intent on Nov. 8. The Bozeman na ve selected Montana over off ers from Montana State and Air Force, and a er visi ng Boise State and Denver.

Anderson averaged nearly two blocks per game during the 2017 state tour-nament, helping Bozeman High School to a runner-up fi nish at the Montana Class 2A state tournament. A er mostly talking with NAIA schools, Ander-son burst onto the scene over the summer while playing for Montana Elite.

“I like his athle cism and agility,” Travis DeCuire said. “Not very o en do you get a 6-8 athlete who can run and jump and ball a li le bit. We’re excited about what he presents in the future.”

LOOKING AHEADMontana returns home next week to host Sacramento State and Portland State. Five of the Grizzlies’ fi nal seven games are at home, where Montana is a perfect 9-0 this season.

ve points off of three-pointers and a 33-32 advantage.• Trailing by four, 69-65, with under 3 minutes to play, Montana went on

an 8-2 run over the next 2 minutes to take a 73-71 advantage. Oguine scored all eight points for the Griz.

• A er alterna ng baskets to begin over me, Montana scored to take a 79-77 lead and then held Pi without a made fi eld goal over its fi nal three a empts.

PARTIAL ARRIVALMontana’s win at Pi (Nov. 13) was huge for the program. The Grizzlies knocked off an ACC team that has played in 13 of the last 16 NCAA tour-naments, on its home court no less. Pi entered the contest with a 135-5 all- me mark in non-conference games at the Petersen Events Center and had never lost a home opener in the building.

The victory, however, will mean li le if the team doesn’t use it as a spring-board into the rest of the season, par cularly in March.

“We want to win these games in November so we can win these games in March,” Travis DeCuire said a erward, no ng that he schedules games like these in order to prepare his team for Big Sky Conference ac on and, hopefully, the postseason. BIG-GAMER OGUINEJunior guard Michael Oguine scored 29 points (then a career high) in Montana’s win at Pi (Nov. 13), but more impressive than the 29 points or team-most fi ve assists was the fact that Oguine took over when it ma ered most. He scored 16 of his points in the fi nal 8:32 of regula on, including Montana’s fi nal 10 points overall. Trailing 67-63 with 4:32 to play, Oguine out-scored Pi ’s en re team, 10-4, to give Montana a two-point lead in the fi nal minute of regula on. “Mike’s one of those guys where when he’s mad he’s be er,” Travis DeCuire said. “If he thinks it’s me to put everybody on his back, he’s going to get it done. He carried us when we needed him to.”

100 AND COUNTINGNov. 13 was a special night for the Montana basketball program, but for two Grizzlies in par cular.

Fabijan Krslovic played in his 100th consecu ve game. The senior from Australia has played in every UM game since the start of the 2014-15 sea-son (now 120, including 104 starts). Addi onally, the game against Pi was Travis DeCuire’s 100th game as head coach. The former Griz player was 59-41 following the signature victory, the fi h-best mark through 100 games out of Montana’s 25 head coaches. DeCuire has led Montana to a 2014-15 regular-season conference tle and back-to-back appearances in the Big Sky Conference tournament championship game (2015 and 2016).

STARTING STRONGMontana’s wins over Whitworth (Nov. 10) and Pi (Nov. 13) gave the Grizzlies their fi rst 2-0 start to a season since the 2009-10 squad began the year with three consecu ve wins. That team fi nished with a 22-10 record, winning a Big Sky championship and advancing to the NCAA tournament.

WORKING OVERTIMEMontana won its fi rst over me game in nearly two years on Nov. 13, defea ng Pi , 83-78. Prior to that, Montana’s last over me victory was a double-over me win at Northern Arizona on Dec. 31, 2015. The Grizzlies lost both over me contests in 2016-17.

RETURNING TALENTThe Grizzlies have the pieces to contend this season, returning three of their four consistent starters from 2016-17, in addi on to a pair of guards – Sayeed Pridge and Bobby Moorehead – who each start-ed about one-third of last year’s contests.

In total, Montana returns the majority of its produc on in all aspects of the game, bringing back its top two scorers, and four of its top fi ve. On the other end of the fl oor, Montana had six players with 90 or more rebounds a year ago; fi ve of them are back on the court.

NEW GUYS COMING INWhile Montana returns the majority of its produc on from a year ago, the team also turned over rough-ly half of its roster, with several newcomers expected to slide in and fi ll roles immediately. The Grizzlies signed six freshmen, in addi on to sophomore JUCO transfer Niko Bevens.

• Admir Besovic – Originally from Bosnia and Herzegovina, has spent the past two seasons at the Virginia Episcopal School in Lynchburg, where he averaged 11.2 points and 6.8 rebounds last year as a team captain.

• Niko Bevens – As a freshman at North Idaho College, led the Cardinals to an NWAC Eastern Confer-ence championship by making 50 percent of his three-point a empts.

• Lars Espe – 2016-17 Young Player of the Year in the BLNO, Norway’s premier professional basketball league.

• Timmy Falls – 2016-17 East Bay Athle c League MVP.• Peter Jones – Played in 26 games as a senior at O’Dea High School, averaging 4.8 points per game.• Kelby Kramer – No. 2 prep prospect from the state of Wyoming, being named to USA Today’s All-

USA Wyoming Boys Basketball Team• Karl Nicholas – As the 17th-best prep prospect from the state of Texas, was named the 2016-17

Texas District 22-6A MVP.

DYNAMIC DUO, PART IIMontana boasts one of the top duos in the Big Sky with junior guards Ahmaad Rorie and Michael Ogu-ine. The two combined to score well over one-third of the team’s points a year ago, also ranking No. 1 and 2 for minutes played.

A transfer from Oregon, Rorie made a name for himself during his fi rst season in the league, earning sec-ond-team All-Big Sky honors. He started all 31 contest, and led the Grizzlies in minutes (32.5 per game), points (17.6), assists (97), fi eld goals made (192), three-pointers (63) and free-throw percent-age (.833). His 1.2 assist-to-turnover ra o helped Montana have the 12th-fewest turnovers in Division I in 2016-17.

A er recording the second-most points ever for a Montana freshman, Oguine followed up his debut sea-son with an even be er sophomore campaign. He averaged 11.9 points per game – including 13.3 during conference play – and shot .481 from the fl oor. He ranked second on the team for points, re-bounds (6.0 per game) and steals (37), and earned third-team all-conference honors.

Both players have been named to various publica ons’ preseason all-conference teams, with Rorie being one of six players selected to the offi cial preseason All-Big Sky team voted on by the league’s coaches.

FABULOUS SENIORMontana’s lone senior is Australian Fabijan Krslovic, who entered the season having played in 100 consec-u ve games – star ng 83. Krslovic was Montana’s top rebounder in 2016-17, with more than one-third of his boards coming on the off ensive glass. He also led Montana with 15 steals and 20 blocked shots and was one of just three Big Sky players to rank in the top 15 in the conference for both categories.

Krslovic will admit he’s not the most athle c player on the court, but he’s consistent and is the glue of the team, according to the coaching staff . A er being forced to be more of a center last year because of Montana’s lack of height, he will now transi on into a more natural role as a 6-8 forward.

ADDED HEIGHTA year ago, Fabijan Krslovic (6-8) was the Grizzlies’ tallest player, which forced him to play a diff erent role

MONTANA BASKETBALL

as Montana’s only true post player. This year, he is one of fi ve players at 6-8 or taller. It was a conscious eff ort by DeCuire, looking to add more height and depth to his team’s roster.

Admir Besovic (7-0) and Kelby Kramer (6-10) are s ll raw as true freshmen, adjus ng to the quicker style of play in the college game, but both can play a true center posi on. Kramer is more of a shot-blocker and rebounder, while Besovic has the ability to clog the lane and make it tough for opposing off enses to penetrate to the rim.

Montana believes it has a solid low-presence combina on of Krslovic and transfer Jamar Akoh, and also has 6-8 Karl Nicholas, who can be an athle c force on both ends of the court.

MORE RETURNING TALENTIn addi on to Montana’s senior and pair of all-conference guards, the team returns three other players, including Sayeed Pridge and Bobby Moore-head.

As a true freshman, Pridge earned 11 starts and ranked ninth in the Big Sky with a .524 fi eld-goal percentage. He was also the team’s third-best rebounder (3.9 per game) and ranked fourth on the team for points (8.1 per game) and assists (44). In his second collegiate season, Moorehead started 10 games and averaged 2.8 rebounds per game while adding 3.9 points, 10 total steals and nine blocked shots. Sophomore guard Trever Spoja is also back. The Billings na ve saw ac on in eight contests as a redshirt freshman, totaling 10 points on 3-of-7 shoo ng.

STARTING THEM YOUNGMontana is one of 11 NCAA Division I schools na onally to have at least nine newcomer and just one senior.

Kentucky leads the na on with 12 newcomers and zero seniors, while Auburn has a dozen newcomers and one senior. Tennessee, Toledo and Woff ord each have 10 newcomers and one senior, while Montana, Bowling Green, Holy Cross, Kansas State, Louisiana Tech and Oklahoma have nine new players and one expected graduate.

DORSEY TO MISS SEASONThe Grizzlies will be without junior forward Donaven Dorsey this season. Dorsey, who redshirted in 2016-17 a er transferring from the University of Washington, suff ered a pair of hip injuries that require separate surger-ies. The fi rst was performed on Oct. 23. He played in 55 games over two seasons with the Huskies, earning eight starts. He totaled 166 points and 77 rebounds.

PICKED TO FINISH 3RDMontana has high expecta ons for itself, and those who follow Big Sky basketball feel similar. In the preseason polls, Montana was picked to fi nish third by both the coaches and media. The Grizzlies were slo ed to fi nish behind Idaho and Weber State in both polls (complete lis ng on Page 23).

Travis DeCuire said being picked to fi nish in the upper echelon is a sign of respect, but he and his team have their own set of goals, especially a er winning a regular-season championship in 2015 and playing in the confer-ence tournament tle game in both 2015 and 2016.

TOUGH SCHEDULEA year ago, Travis DeCuire believed he compiled the most-challenging schedule in program history, facing an all-Division-I slate. This year, it may

be even tougher. The Grizzlies open the season with 13 non-conference games, fi ve of which are against Power-5 teams. The team’s fi rst road trip is at Pi (ACC) and Penn State (Big Ten) – part of the pres gious Legends Classic. The tournament will con nue the following week in Malibu, Calif., as Montana takes on Oral Roberts and either UC Santa Barbara or host Pepperdine.

The Grizzlies will get their air miles several weeks later, traveling to Georgia State, in addi on to three contests against Pac-12 foes – Stanford, UCLA and Washington. The Bruins are ranked in the AP pre-season top-25 poll.

In Missoula, Montana will host Cal State Northridge, Carroll, UC Irvine, UC Riverside and Whitworth. The 18-game league schedule will begin Dec. 28 and include home-and-home contests against Montana State, North Dako-ta, Northern Arizona, Northern Colorado, Portland State, Sacramento State and Southern Utah. Montana will also will travel to Eastern Washington and Idaho, and will host Idaho State and Weber State to close the regular season.

The Big Sky Conference tournament will be held in Reno, Nev., for the fi nal year before moving to Boise, Idaho, next spring.

TEAM BONDING IN COSTA RICAThe Grizzlies got a head start to the basketball season, taking a foreign tour to Costa Rica in early Au-gust. The NCAA allows for teams to par cipate in such trips once every four years. The trip was benefi cial in several facets. In addi on to key bonding me – being in a foreign country with your teammates and being able to partake in several ac vi es, including pool me and a zip line through a jungle – and service ini a ves – the team

spent a day at an orphanage, playing sports with the children and reading to them – the team also competed in a pair of scrimmages and was allo ed 10 prac ces in Missoula leading up to the trip.

The tour allowed for Travis DeCuire to introduce concepts to his team – par- cularly the newcomers – much earlier than he usually would, and noted

that the team was ahead of where they normally were early in fall camp.

SECURING THE BALLMontana averaged just 10.8 turnovers per game a year ago, the 12th-fewest in all of NCAA Division I basketball.

PROUD HISTORYTravis DeCuire is well aware of Montana’s proud history, and has experi-enced it fi rsthand. During the 1990s, Montana won the Big Sky Conference and played in the NCAA tournament three mes in a seven-year period, in-cluding DeCuire’s sophomore campaign. The two- me All-Big Sky selec on s ll holds Montana’s record for career assists.

Since Montana’s fi rst conference championship in 1975, no Big Sky team has won more conference les (10) than Montana. Addi onally, the Griz-zlies have won nine tournament tles and have nine runner-up fi nishes – including three championships and three runner-up fi nishes in the past eight sea-sons. In the league’s history, Montana has won more games than any Big Sky school except for Weber State.

DECUIRE REACHES MILESTONEMidway through last season, DeCuire’s third in Missoula, the Grizzlies de-feated Northern Colorado to earn the head coach his 50th victory. He is the second-fastest Griz coach to reach that milestone (84 games). The fastest to 50 was Blaine Taylor, DeCuire’s head coach when he played for the Griz.

MONTANA BASKETBALL

TRAVIS DECUIREHead Coach | Fourth Season | Montana, 1994

In his fi rst two seasons as the University of Montana’s 27th men’s head basketball coach, Travis DeCuire accomplished something no other coach in UM history had: he posted two 20-win seasons in his fi rst two seasons. Now entering the fourth season at his alma mater, DeCuire is once again poised to put the Grizzlies back on the road to a 20-win campaign. DeCuire (pronounced: dee-CURE) was formally introduced as the Grizzlies’ head basketball coach in June 2014, at a press conference at UM’s Ad-ams Center a er the ini al announcement from UM’s Director of Athle cs Kent Haslam in May of that year.

In his fi rst season at the helm of a program with a rich history of success, DeCuire’s Griz started the year picked to fi nish eighth in the conference. Led by future European professional Jordan Gregory, UM would go on to defy expecta ons and win the Big Sky regular-season championship and advance to the Na onal Invita onal Tournament (NIT) before fi nishing the season 20-13 (14-4 BSC). At the me, he became only the second coach in UM history to notch 20 victories in his fi rst season at the helm – a feat also accomplished by Blaine Taylor in 1991-92 (27-4). In DeCuire’s second year, he followed up with another 20-win season and another trip to the Big Sky championship game, this me led by future European professional Mar- n Breunig. DeCuire’s Grizzlies would once again advance to the postseason, compe ng

in the fi rst round of the CBI tournament against Nevada, fi nishing with a 21-12 (14-4 BSC) record. Paced by 10 underclassmen and just two seniors who played signifi cant me, the Grizzlies went 16-16 (11-7 BSC) in 2016-17, earning a fi rst-round bye in the Big Sky tour-nament. During the season, DeCuire became the second-fastest UM head coach to reach 50 wins (doing so in 84 contests). He coached a pair of UM sophomores – both returning in 2017-18 – to All-Big Sky Conference recogni on. The 2016-17 season was also the second consecu ve year in which the Grizzlies have posted a team grade-point average above 3.0, earning NABC Team Academic Excel-lence recogni on both seasons. Prior to returning to his alma mater as head coach, DeCuire spent six seasons (2008-09 through 2013-14) on the University of California coaching staff – including the fi nal four as associate head coach. Regarded as one of the top tutors in the game, DeCuire helped former Montana mentor Mike Montgomery – a member of the Na onal Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame – transform Cal into one of the winningest programs in the Pac-12 during his me in Berkeley. The Bears reached the postseason all six years he was on the staff , including the NCAA tournament four mes. The Golden Bears boasted 130 wins in his six seasons – the best six-year stretch in school history – winning the 2010 Pac-10 championship. He coached numerous all-conference selec ons, including conference players of the year Jerome Randle (2010) and Jorge Gu errez (2012). DeCuire he spent fi ve seasons (2003-04 through 2007-08) as an assistant coach at Old Dominion, under former Griz head coach and player Blaine Taylor. There, he helped the Monarchs to a combined record of 117-53. The mark included 94 wins during his fi nal four seasons – the most in school history over a four-year stretch. ODU reached the postseason each of those four seasons and advanced to the NCAA tournament in both 2005 and 2007 – winning a school-record 28 contests in 2005. Addi onally, the Monarchs reached the NIT semifi nals in 2006 and the quarterfi nals of the College Basketball Invita onal in 2008. DeCuire, from Sea le, Wash., also has head coaching experience from s nts at Sammamish High School and Green River Community College in Washing-ton. At GRCC, DeCuire took over a last-place program and guided it to a conference championship and its fi rst 20-win season in more than 20 years, earning league coach-of-the-year honors in 2003 – his second season. At Sammamish High School in Bellevue, DeCuire led his team to a pair of conference tles, a state tournament appearance and three consecu ve trips to the district tournament. As a point guard for Montana from 1992-94 DeCuire was named All-Big Sky Conference as a junior and senior. He set a school record in just three seasons with 435 career assists. He also established UM’s single-season mark with 199 assists as a senior in 1993-94, when he was ranked 12th in the na on, averaging 7.1 assists a game. He was the recipient of the Grizzlies’ Carl Dragstedt Award (MVP) as a junior and senior, and received the John Eaheart Award (Outstanding Defensive Player) following his senior year. As a freshman at Chaminade-Hawaii, he was a starter and team MVP in 1990. He then transferred to Montana and redshirted in 1991. DeCuire a ended Mercer Island High School (Wash.), where he was a three-year starter and all-state, team MVP, and a McDonald’s All-America honorable men on pick as a senior. He has a strong commitment to community service and founded and acted as president of the Fastbreak Basketball Associa on – an organiza on that assists in teaching life lessons and building self-esteem through basketball to more than 500 students in the Sea le-Tacoma area. Addi onally, he has extensive experience in counseling at the Echo Glen Children’s Center in Snoqualmie, Wash., from 1996-98, and with the Ryther Children’s Center in North Sea le, from 1995-97. DeCuire graduated from Montana in 1994 with a degree in business marke ng. He and his wife, Sabrina, have two daughters – Brianna (24) and Tamia (5).
