Bobcats Host Vikings in Crucial League Tilt
2/2/2007 12:00:00 AM | Men's Basketball
After a slow conference start, Portland State arrives in Brick Breeden Fieldhouse Saturday night with a back-to-back two-point road wins in its hip pocket. The Vikings fave won four of their last five after a 2-4 conference start, in large part due to the efforts of the bruising inside tandem of Anthony Washington and Scott Morrison. Dupree Lucas, Deonte Huff and Juma Kamara give the Vikings a diverse, athletic group of wings, while Ryan Sommer and Paul Hafford provide punch from the perimeter. The Vikings average 77 points a game, third in the league.
