Columbia Basin defeated Treasure Valley in convincing fashion 77-39. Trinidie Nichols recorded her first triple-double of the year with 16 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists. Makenna Brandner poured in 22 points and 13 rebounds off the bench in support.

CBC came out the gate with 6 points in the row to set the tone on the afternoon. With Ella Osborne as a non-suit today, the rotation was down to 8 players but that would not be a problem on the day. Brandner canned 2 of her four 3's on the day including a buzzer beater at the end of the first quarter. CBC's defense was stingy in the first half allowing just 7 points and 8 points respectively in each quarter.

Nichols was able to get her way on both ends of the court including a few coast to coast layins to go with 5 assists early. Brandner shot  6-7 in the half good for 18 of her 22.

The Hawks were able to open it up in the third while scoring 22 points coming from 5 different players. Kenzi Pedersen got it going inside with a couple of tough buckets along with 3 rebounds. After 3 quarters, Basin extended the lead to 60-24.

Nichols converted an inbounds play out of a timeout with 2 minutes to go in the 4th to earn the triple-double before checking out of the game as the Hawks cruised to the 77-39 final. The win moves them to 4-2 in East Region play with Spokane next up on Wednesday for the final game of the homestand. Tipoff scheduled for 5:30pm.
