Snow men roll past North Idaho

EPHRAIM—Snow College delivered one of its most complete performances of the season Saturday, Jan. 17, pulling away early and cruising to a 106–82 win over North Idaho College at the Horne Activity Center.
The Badgers seized control from the opening minutes and never trailed. Snow led 53–31 at halftime after shooting better than 51 percent from the field and 44 percent from three-point range in the first half. A late first-half surge pushed the margin past 20 points before the break, and the lead continued to grow in the second half.
Snow matched its first-half output with another 53 points after intermission, extending the lead to as many as 35 midway through the second half. The Badgers finished the game shooting 52.3 percent from the field and 41.4 percent from beyond the arc while forcing turnovers and converting in transition.
Sam Sivulich led all scorers with 25 points, hitting five three-pointers and dishing out five assists. McCaden Adams added 16 points, five assists and four rebounds, while Sean Felts finished with 13 points and nine rebounds. Brock McClure chipped in 12 points and 10 rebounds for a double-double as Snow controlled the glass.
Snow out-rebounded North Idaho 37–38 but capitalized on 21 points off turnovers and consistent perimeter shooting to maintain separation throughout the game.
North Idaho was led by Ne’quan Brown, who scored 25 points, and Austin Ouko, who added 19. The Cardinals improved offensively in the second half but never closed the gap to single digits.
The win marked a key conference result as Snow continues to position itself in the upper half of the Scenic West standings.
Earlier in the week, the Badgers fell 84–76 to the College of Southern Idaho on Wednesday, Jan. 15.
