CHENEY, Wash. – The Eastern Washington Eagles (12-17, 10-6) overcame a late first-half deficit to rally and beat the Northern Colorado Bears (18-11, 8-8), 82-72.
Kiree Huie led the Eags with 23 points and 10 rebounds, and Alton Hamilton IV added 21 points and five rebounds.
Eastern only led for 38% of the game, but they led the entire final four minutes of the game.
The Eags could finish as high as a tie for first place if they can win their final two games, starting with hosting the last-place Northern Arizona Lumberjacks on Saturday at 1:00 p.m.
