The University of Montana Department of Athletics will be taking a booster bus to Cheney, Wash., for this week’s Big Sky Conference women’s basketball tournament. The No. 2 Lady Griz will play in a semifinal game at 3:30 p.m. (PT) on Friday against either No. 3 Sacramento State, No. 4 Idaho State or No. 5 Portland State.
The second semifinal game Friday, which will be played at 6 p.m. (PT), will feature No. 1 Eastern Washington against the lowest remaining seed from Thursday’s quarterfinal games.
The semifinal winners will meet Saturday at 2 p.m. (PT) in the tournament championship game.
The booster bus will leave the Adams Center at 11:45 a.m. Friday, with a return trip to Missoula Saturday at a time to be determined based on Montana’s result from its semifinal game.
The cost of the trip is $160 per person (based on double occupancy). The cost covers transportation, lodging at the Doubletree Hotel in Spokane and a premium seat in the Lady Griz cheering section.
Reservations can be made by contacting assistant marketing director Brent Reser at 243-2250.
