The 6-foot-1 senior guard who has signed with Idaho State hit six 3-pointers and scored a career-high 39 points as the Timberwolves defeated Owyhee of Meridian 80-60 on Saturday at North Idaho College as part of the Northwest Invitational showcase event. “I’ve said this plenty, but Idaho State got a gift there,” Lake City coach Jim Winger said. “He’s a competitor; he’s a winner, and it doesn’t surprise me, but that was a heckuva game by a kid that was pretty harassed the whole game. It wasn’t like they didn’t know who he was. It’s a pretty remarkable effort.”
